Care and safety information
Safety
Use of your phone is subject to safety measures designed to protect users and their environment.
Electrical safety
Only use the chargers listed in the manufacturer’s catalogue. Using any other charger may be dangerous; it would also
invalidate your warranty. Line voltage must be exactly the one indicated on the charger’s serial plate.
Aircraft safety
When travelling by plane, you will need to switch your phone off when so instructed by the cabin crew or the warning signs.
Using a mobile phone may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may disrupt the phone network.
Explosive materials
Please comply with warning signs at petrol station asking you to switch your phone off. You will need to comply with radio
equipment usage restrictions in places such as chemical plants, fuel depots and at any location where blasting operations are
under way.
Electronic medical equipment
Your phone is a radio transmitter which may interfere with electronic medical equipment or implants, such as hearing aids,
pacemakers, insulin pumps, etc. It is recommended that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between the phone and
an implant. Your doctor or the manufacturers of such equipment will be able to give you any advice you may need in this area.
Hospitals
Always make sure that your phone is switched off in hospitals when so instructed by warning signs or by medical staff.
Road safety
Except in emergencies, do not use your phone when driving unless you have a hands-free kit enabling you to manoeuvre freely.
In order to give your full attention to driving, stop and park safely before making a call. You must comply with any current legislation.
SAR
This phone complies with European requirements governing exposure to radio waves. Your phone is a transmitter/receiver. It
has been designed and manufactured to comply with radiofrequency energy exposure limits recommended by the Council of
the European Union and the ICNIRP for the entire population. These limits were established by independent scientific agencies
on the basis of in-depth and regular evaluations of scientific studies. The limits include a large safety margin that is intended to
guarantee the safety of all, irrespective of age or state of health.
The exposure standard for phones uses a unit of measure called the SAR, or Specific Absorption Ratio. The SAR limit
recommended by the Council of the European Union and the ICNIRP is 2 W/kg (*). Tests were conducted on a standardised
usage position basis, with the phone transmitting at its maximum level certified in all its frequency bands. Although the
standardised measurement is done at maximum power, the real SAR of the phone in use is generally very far below the
maximum value.
(*) The SAR limit for phones used by the general public is 2 watts/kilogram (2 W/kg) on average for 10 g of tissue. This value
includes a large safety margin to increase protection and to take account of the variations in measurements. The SAR
information may vary in different parts of the world, depending on declared national requirements and the frequency
bands used by the network.
