RADIO WAVES:
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with
European Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all mobile
phone models before they can be put on the market. The protection
of the health and safety for the user and any other person is an
essential requirement of these standards or this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency
electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The
guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization
(ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile
devices is 2 W/kg.

and accessories sold with your phone are also
warranted against any defect which may occur during the first
six (6) months
(1)
from the date of purchase as shown on your
original invoice.
In case of any defect of your phone which prevents you from
normal use thereof, you must immediately inform your vendor
and present your phone with your proof of purchase.
If the defect is confirmed, your phone or part thereof will be
either replaced or repaired, as appropriate. Repaired Phone and
accessories are entitled to a one (1) month warranty for the
same defect. Repair or replacement may be carried out using
reconditioned components offering equivalent functionality.

•
then turn your phone on
Check the battery power level, charge for at least 20 minutes
•
If it still does not work, please use User Data Format
•

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with
the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines
for this device model are:
ALCATEL 1042X:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it
was recorded.
Head SAR
Bluetooth
0.748 W/kg
Body-worn SAR
Bluetooth
1.00 W/kg
ALCATEL 1042D:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it
was recorded.
Head SAR
Bluetooth
0.748 W/kg
Body-worn SAR
Bluetooth
1.00 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well
below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system
efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating
power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full
power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the
device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of
10 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation,
the device should be positioned at least this distance away from the
body. If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone the
indicated distance away from the body.
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food
and Drug Administration have stated that if people are concerned and
want to reduce their exposure they could use a hands-free device to
keep the phone away from the head and body during phone calls, or
reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.
For more information you can go to www.alcatelonetouch.com
Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health
are available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal
operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in
positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device
will be compliant with the guidelines when used with headset or usb
data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at
least 10 mm away from the body.

Safety and use ..................
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using
your phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage,
which may result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary
to the instructions contained herein.
•
TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving a
vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is used
(car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their
mobile when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your phone and headphone to listen to
music or to the radio. Using a headphone can be dangerous and
forbidden in some areas.
When switched on, your phone emits electromagnetic waves that
can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS anti-
lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- do not place your phone on top of the dashboard or within an
airbag deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure
that the dashboard is adequately shielded from mobile phone RF
energy.
•
CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the telephone from time to time to
optimise its performance.
Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft.
Switch the phone off when you are in health care facilities, except
in designated areas. As with many other types of equipment now in
regular use, mobile telephones can interfere with other electrical or
electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.
Switch the phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids.
Strictly obey all signs and instructions posted in a fuel depot, petrol
station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.
When the phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm
from any medical device such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or
insulin pump, etc. In particular when using the phone, you should
hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
To avoid hearing impairment, pick up the call before holding your
phone to your ear. Also move the handset away from your ear
while using the “hands-free” mode because the amplified volume
might cause hearing damage.
