Do not short-circuit the battery contacts. A short circuit can
occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip or pen con-
tacts the metal terminals of the battery. A short circuit of the
terminals may damage the battery, the phone, the object
causing the short circuit and may result in heat, fire, or cata-
strophic failure such as an explosion.
Always replace the rubber cap on the receptacle located at
the base of your phone when the receptacle does not need
to be accessed. Short-circuit may be caused by the contact
with the metallic articles such as a coin and clip or pen and
may result in heat, fire, or catastrophic failure such as an
explosion.
Do not disassemble the battery as it may cause electric
shock, short-circuit, or fire.
Do not expose the phone to excessive vibration or a sharp
impact.
Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will
cause the battery to explode.
General Warnings and Cautions
Store the battery in a place out of reach of children.
Using a damaged battery or placing a battery in your mouth
may cause serious injury.
Do not place items containing magnetic components such
as a credit card, phone card, bank book or a subway ticket
near your phone. The magnetism of the phone may dam-
age the data stored in the magnetic strip.
Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your
body during a call.
