• Do not expose or use your phone or its accessories in an environment with or that can reach extreme
temperatures, minimum - [5] and m [50] degrees Celsius.
• Do not place your phone inside or near heating equipment or high-pressure containers, such as water
heaters, microwave ovens, or hot cooking utensils. Otherwise, your phone may be damaged.
• Please check local regulations for disposal of electronic products.
• Do not carry your phone in your back pocket as it could break when you sit down.
Small Children
Do not leave your phone and its accessories within the reach of small children or allow them to play with it. They
could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the phone. Your phone contains small parts with
sharp edges that may cause an injury or may become detached and create a choking hazard.
Demagnetization
To avoid the risk of demagnetization, do not allow electronic devices or magnetic media to be close to your
phone for a long time.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Do not touch the SIM/SD card’s metal connectors.
Antenna
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
Normal Use Position
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your phone to your ear, with the bottom towards your mouth.
Air Bags
Do not place a phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area as an airbag inflates with great
force and serious injury could result. Store the phone safely before driving your vehicle.
Seizures/Blackouts
The phone can produce a bright or flashing light. A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts
or seizures (even if they have never had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as
when playing games or watching video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history
of such occurrences, please consult a physician.
Repetitive Stress Injuries
To minimize the risk of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) when texting or playing games with your phone:
• Do not grip the phone too tightly.
• Press the buttons lightly.
• Use the special features that are designed to minimize the times of pressing buttons, such as Message
Templates and Predictive Text.
• Take many breaks to stretch and relax.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all
conditions. Therefore, you must never rely solely on any wireless phone for emergency communications.
Loud Noise
This phone is capable of producing loud noises, which may damage your hearing. Turn down the volume before
using headphones, Bluetooth stereo headsets or other audio devices.
Phone Heating
Your phone may become warm during charging and during normal use.
Electrical Safety
Accessories
Use only approved accessories. Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories. Take care not to
touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings, to contact or short-circuit in the battery terminals. Never
puncture the surface of the battery with sharp objects.
Connection to a Car
Seek professional advice when connecting a phone interface to the vehicle electrical system.
Faulty and Damaged Products
Do not attempt to disassemble the phone or its accessories. Only qualified personnel can service or repair
the phone or its accessories. If your phone (or its accessories) has been submerged in water, punctured, or
subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you have taken it to be checked at an authorized service center.
CTIA Requirements
• Do not disassemble or crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
• Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to
water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.
• Only use the battery for the system for which it is specified.
• Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified with the system per CTIA Certification
Requirements for Battery System Compliance to IEEE 1725. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
• Do not short-circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals.
• Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified with the system per this standard, IEEE-
Std-1725. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazard.
• Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
• Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the
user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.

that have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
Radio Frequency Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers
and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on
the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using wireless
devices or when one is nearby. The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance
from the interference source. Increasing the separation between them may reduce the interference. You may also
consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
