Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations that are in force in any area
and always switch off your phone wherever it is forbidden to use it.
Otherwise, the use of your phone could cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read the
associated user guide first and obtain detailed safety instructions.
Warning: Do not connect incompatible accessories or products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, you are advised that,
for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that the phone should only be used in the
normal operating position. This position is when the phone is held to your
ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic equipment might not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone. The following four
subsections provide more information about this topic.
PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of six
inches (20 cm.) should be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by
and the recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
PERSONS WITH PACEMAKERS:
• should always keep the phone more than six inches (20 cm) from their
pacemaker when the phone is switched on
• should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
