Safety Information
Antenna
Care Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone
Operation Normal Position:
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
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 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 battery is packed with a protective cover.;
please use this cover for storing your battery 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.
