O L English 4 Contents Safety IMPORTANT For the efficient and safe operation of your GSM Cellular Telephone, Read this information before use. Your GSM cellular telephone is one of the most exciting and innovative electronic products ever developed. With it you can stay in contact with your office, your home, emergency services, and others, wherever service is provided. Efficient Phone Operation For your phone to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality: If your phone has an extendable antenna, extend it fully. Some models allow you to place a call with the antenna retracted. However, your phone operates more efficiently with the antenna fully extended. Hold the phone as you would any other telephone. While speaking directly into the mouthpiece, position the antenna up and over your shoulder. Do not hold the antenna when the phone is "IN USE". Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than needed. General Your cellular telephone utilizes the GSM standard for cellular technology. GSM is a newer radio frequency ("RF") technology than the current FM technology that has been used for radio communications for decades. The GSM standard has been established for use in the European Community and elsewhere. Your cellular telephone is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out and receives radio frequency energy. When you use your cellular telephone, the cellular system handling your call controls both the radio frequency and the power level of your cellular telephone. Antenna Care and Replacement Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. Consult your manual to see if you may change the antenna yourself. If so, use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Otherwise, have your antenna repaired by a qualified technician. Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorised antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the phone and may contravene local RF emission regulations or invalidate type approval. Exposure To RF Energy There has been some public concern about possible health effects of using cellular telephones. Although research on health effects from RF energy has focused for many years on the current RF technology, scientists have begun research regarding newer radio technologies such as GSM. After existing research had been reviewed, and after compliance to all applicable safety standards had been tested, it has been concluded that the product is fit for use. If you are concerned about exposure to RF energy there are things you can do to minimize exposure. Obviously, limiting the duration of your calls will reduce your exposure to RF energy. In addition, you can reduce RF exposure by operating your cellular telephone efficiently by following the below guidelines. Safety 5 English Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, when using your phone while driving, please: · · · give full attention to driving, use hands-free operation, if available, and pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent interference with cellular systems, local RF regulations prohibit using your phone whilst airborne. Children Do not allow children to play with your phone. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for example). Children could damage the phone, or make calls that increase your telephone bills. Electronic Devices Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy may effect some malfunctioning or improperly shielded electronic equipment. Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a "blasting area" or in areas posted: "turn off two-way radio". Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives. Vehicle Electronic Equipment Check with your vehicle manufacturer's representative to determine if any on board electronic equipment is adequately shielded from RF energy. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives, in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your phone or accessories. Before using your phone in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is to be used. Medical Electronic Equipment Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using RF monitoring equipment. Aircraft Turn your phone OFF before boarding any aircraft. · · Use it on the ground only with crew permission. Do not use in the air. English 6 Safety Safety Standards This Cellular Telephone complies with all applicable RF safety standards. This cellular telephone meets the standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy established by governmental bodies and other qualified organisations, such as the following: · · · · · · Verband Deutscher Elektroingenieure (VDE) DIN-0848 Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom.
