Batteries CAUTION: All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if a conductive material, such as jewellery, keys or beaded chains, touches exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving. • Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first responsibility. • Use hands-free phone operation, if available. • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6") be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.

English
Batteries
CAUTION:
All batteries can cause property damage, injury,
or burns if a conductive material, such as jewellery, keys or
beaded chains, touches exposed terminals. The material
may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To
protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care
in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing
it inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal
objects. When the battery is detached from the phone,
your battery is packed with a protective battery cover;
please use this cover for storing your battery when not in
use.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. Observe the following guidelines when using your
phone while driving.
Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first
responsibility.
Use hands-free phone operation, if available.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a
call if driving conditions so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF
signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6")
be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference
should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any
reason to suspect that interference is taking place
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
