1. For Your Safety
General Care
Your handset contains delicate electronic circuitry, magnets and battery systems. You should
treat it with care and give particular attention to the following points:
Do not allow the handset, battery or accessories to come into contact with liquids or
moisture at any time. Do not immerse it in any liquid.
Do not place the handset alongside computer disks, credit cards, travel cards or other
magnetic media. The information contained on the disks or cards may be affected by the
handset.
Do not place anything inside the folded handset.
Do not paint the handset.
Do not leave the handset or battery in places where the temperature could exceed 140 ˚F,
e.g. on a car dashboard or a windowsill, behind glass in direct sunlight, etc.
Do not remove the handset battery while the handset is switched on.
Take care not to allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings to contact or short circuit
the battery terminals.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire. The handset’s Li-ION batteries may be safely
disposed of at a Li-ION recycling point. Follow local requirements for recycling.
Do not put the handset’s battery in your mouth, as battery electrolytes may be toxic if
swallowed.
