Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of the
reach of small children.
■ Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area, and always
switch off your device when its use is prohibited or when it may cause
interference or danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions. This
device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position
against the ear or when positioned at least 1.5 centimeters (5/8 inch) from the
body. When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it
should not contain metal and should position the device the above-stated
distance from your body. To transmit data files or messages, this device requires a
quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or
messages may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above
separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission is
completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the
device. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the
device, because information stored on them may be erased.
■ Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may
interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if
they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any
questions. Switch off your device 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.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
15.3 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers
should do the following:
