Safety Precautions 

This section includes some important information on safe and efficient operation. Please 

read this information before using the phone. 

Operational Precautions 

„

 

Please use your phone properly. When making or receiving a call, please hold your 

phone as holding a wireline telephone. Ensure the phone is at least one inch (two 

point five centimeters) from your body when transmitting. 

„

 

Do not touch the antenna when the phone is in use. Touching the antenna area 

affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level 

than needed. 

„

 

Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed 

to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing video games. If you 

have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such 

occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video games on you phone 

or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is 

not available on all products.)
