8 Safety Information
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other
telephone. Make sure the antenna is extended fully and rotated to
either the left or right detente. The antenna should be vertical to the
ground and have a clear view of the sky.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
• Extend and rotate your antenna fully.
• Make sure the antenna has a clear view of the sky.
• 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 a
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
placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal
objects. When the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries
are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for
storing your batteries 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. 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.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone.
