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.

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.

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 6 inches (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.

Medical Devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to

determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the

operation of your medical device.

Hospitals

Power off your wireless device when requested to do so in

hospitals, clinics, or health care facilities. These requests are

designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical

equipment.
