device. Acquaint yourself with all the functions of this device. Keep this user manual
for later use.
•
Do not touch the antenna if the antenna cover is damaged, because touching
the antenna with skin during transmission may cause minor burns.
•
Rechargeable batteries/batteries can damage properties by burning for example, if
conductive materials such as jewellery, key or chain with come into contact with
free poles. The material forms an electric circuit (short circuit) under such
circumstances and this gives rise to heat. Be careful while dealing with charged
rechargeable battery / batteries, particularly if it is put into a pocket, purse or in
another container with metal objects.
•
Do not place the device on the airbag or airbag releasing area. Airbags blow up
with a great impact. If the walkie-talkie
Is located within the airbag releasing range and the airbag is blowed open, then
the device can be hurled by the vehicle with huge impact and cause severe
damages.
•
Keep the walkie-talkie at least 15 cm away from a cardiac pacemaker.
•
Immediately switch off your walkie-talkie if it causes disruption to medical devices.
•
Never replace the rechargeable battery/batteries in an explosive environment. The
spark contact may lead to an explosion during the insertion or removal of the
rechargeable battery/batteries.
•
Switch off your walkie-talkie if you are in an explosion-prone zone. Formation of
sparks in such environments may cause an explosion or fire which may lead to injury or
even death.
Explosion-prone areas are often but not always clearly distinguished. This
includes tank areas such as under deck on ships, fuel or chemical
conveyance or storage areas; switch off the device in such areas, wherein
the air contains chemicals or particulate materials, such as corn, dust or
metal powder; as well as in all other areas in which they are usually found
and your vehicle engine.
