Safety Information
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
•
Extend your antenna fully.
•
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in
use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.
Batteries
Caution:
All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if
conductive material, such as jewelry, 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 it is
inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. Your
batteries are packed with a protective cover. When the battery is
detached from the phone, please use this cover for storing your
batteries.

areas where your drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone
while driving, please:
•
Give full attention to driving—driving safely is your first
responsibility.
•
Use hands-free operation, if available.
•
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require.

However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone.

minimum separation of six (6") inches 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:
