Care and Maintenance
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated with care. Carefully read
the following information :
Keep it and all its parts and accessories out of small children's reach.
Keep it dry. Precipitation humidity and liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use or store it in dusty, dirty areas.
Do not store it in hot or cold areas. High or low temperatures can shorten the life of electronic devices,
damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
Do not store it in cold areas. When the phone warms up (to its normal operating temperature), moisture
can form inside the phone, which may damage the phone.
Do not drop, knock or shake it. Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean it. Wipe it with a soft cloth
slightly dampened in a mild soap and water solution.
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the devices moving parts and prevent proper operation.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications of
attachments could damage the phone and may violate regulations governing radio devices.
If the phone, battery, charger, or any accessory is not working properly, take it to your nearest qualified
service facility.

Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
want to consult your service provider.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
