Safety and usage information

119

Turn off the device in potentially explosive

environments

Do not use your device at refuelling points (service stations) or

near fuels or chemicals. Turn off your device whenever directed

by warning signs or instructions. Your device could cause

explosions or fire in and around fuel or chemical storage and

transfer areas or blasting areas. Do not store or carry flammable

liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same compartment

as the device, its parts, or accessories.

Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries

While using your device, hold the device with a relaxed grip,

press the keys lightly, use special features that reduce the

number of keys you have to press (such as templates and

predictive text), and take frequent breaks.

Never dispose of batteries or devices in a fire. Follow all local

regulations when disposing of used batteries or devices.
Never place batteries or devices on or in heating devices,

such as microwave ovens, stoves, or radiators. Batteries may

explode when overheated.
Never crush or puncture the battery. Avoid exposing the

battery to high external pressure, which can lead to an

internal short circuit and overheating.

Avoid interference with pacemakers

Maintain a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between mobile

devices and pacemakers to avoid potential interference,

as recommended by manufacturers and the independent

research group, Wireless Technology Research.
If you have any reason to suspect that your device is interfering

with a pacemaker or other medical device, turn off the device

immediately and contact the manufacturer of the pacemaker

or medical device for guidance.
