Health and safety

Electronic devices

• If you wear a pacemaker, or are in the company

of someone who does, you should be aware that

there is a small risk of mobile phone usage

interfering with the operation of the pacemaker.

You should contact your doctor, or the

manufacturer of the pacemaker, for more

information.

• Mobile phone usage may interfere with some

hearing aids. If this happens you should contact

your service provider or doctor.

• Mobile phone usage may interfere with the

functionality of inadequately shielded

medical devices. Consult a physician or the

manufacturer of the device to ensure safe

procedures are used.

• Mobile phone usage may interfere with the

functionality of any inadequately shielded

electronic system in a motor vehicle. Examples

include airbags and fuel injection. You should

contact the manufacturer of the vehicle to

ensure that the electronic system is properly

shielded.

Battery safety

Your Toshiba phone is powered by a rechargeable

battery. The full performance of a new battery is

achieved only after two or three complete charge

and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged

and discharged hundreds of times but it will

eventually wear out. When the talk and standby

times are noticeably shorter than normal, it is

recommended that you buy a new battery.

• A new battery, or one that has not been used for

a long time, could have reduced capacity during

initial use.

• The battery can only be charged in temperatures

between +5 °C (+41 °F) and +35°C (+95 °F).

• Only use batteries approved by Toshiba and only

recharge the battery with the recommended

charger supplied by Toshiba.

• When the charger is not in use, disconnect it from

the power source.

• Do not leave the battery connected to the

charger and power source for longer than

necessary as overcharging will shorten the

lifespan of the battery.
