Safety first
Antenna care
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone operation
Normal Position: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
For Efficient Operation: For your phone to operate most efficiently, do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call
quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Important: Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas
where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving:
• Give full attention to driving - driving safely is your first responsibility;
• Use handsfree operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.
Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (6”) or 15 centimeters (15 cm) be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone
OFF immediately.
