INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS

This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most

hospitals and medical clinics.
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.
Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.

Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

HEARING AIDS

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may

want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.

NONIONIZING RADIATION

Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be

operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative

performance and safety of the interference. As with other

mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that

for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety

of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human

body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during

operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized

or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the

phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding

the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance

with local regulatory requirements in your country.

To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set

forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold

the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may

impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact

with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.
