• ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Operating environment

Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch off your
device when its use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. Use the device
only in its normal operating positions. This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used
either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least 7/8 inch (2.2 cm)
away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip, or holder is used for body-worn operation,
it should not contain metal and should position the device the above-stated distance from
your body.
In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a good quality connection to
the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until such
a connection is available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are followed
until the transmission is completed.

Medical devices

Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may interfere
with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch off your phone 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.
PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15.3 cm) be
maintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with
the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by
and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. To minimize the potential for
interference, persons with pacemakers should
• Always keep the device more than 6 inches (15.3 cm) from their pacemaker when the
device is switched on
• Not carry the device in a breast pocket
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your
device immediately.

HEARING AID

Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference occurs,
consult your service provider.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock)
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag systems. For more information,
check with the manufacturer or its representative of your vehicle or any equipment that has
been added.
