• Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object like a coin, clip or pen causes a direct connection between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery). For example, do not carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag where the battery may contact metal objects. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the object causing the shortcircuiting. • Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations. Always recycle.

Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental

short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object

like a coin, clip or pen causes a direct connection

between the + and – terminals of the battery

(metal strips on the battery). For example, do

not carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag

where the battery may contact metal objects.

Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the

battery or the object causing the short-

circuiting.

Dispose of used batteries in accordance with

local regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose

of batteries in a fire.

Road safety

Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability

to communicate by voice, almost anywhere,

anytime. But an important responsibility

accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one

that every user must uphold.

When you are driving a car, driving is your first

responsibility. When using your wireless phone

while driving, follow local regulations in the country

or region you are in.

Operating environment

Remember to follow any special regulations in force

in the area you are in, and always switch off your

phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it

may cause interference or danger.

When connecting the phone or any accessory to

another device, read its user’s guide for detailed

safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible

products.

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,

users are advised that for the satisfactory operation

of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it

is recommended that the equipment should only be

used in the normal operating position (held to your

ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder).

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from

radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain

electronic equipment may not be shielded against

the RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult

the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a

minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be

maintained between a wireless phone and a

pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the

pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent

with the independent research and

recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference

is taking place, switch off your phone immediately.
