The following information should be read and understood as it provides details which will enable you to
operate your phone in a manner which is both safe to you and your environment, and conforms to legal
requirements regarding the use of cellular phones.
This equipment should only be charged with approved charging equipment to ensure
optimum performance and avoid damage to your phone. Other usage will invalidate any
approval given to this apparatus and may be dangerous. Ensure the voltage rating of the Fast
Travel Charger is compatible with the area of use when travelling abroad. A Fast Travel
Charger (EB-CAD55xx*) is supplied with the Main Kit. (Note xx identifies the Charger region,

Use of another battery pack than that recommended by the manufacturer may result in a
safety hazard. If you use a feature which keeps the key backlight on continuously for a long
time, such as a game or the browser, battery life will become extremely short. To maintain
longer battery life, set the key backlight to off. Do not use this phone without the battery cover
attached.
Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. The use of cellular phones in an aircraft
may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and may be
illegal. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular
phone services to the offender, or legal action or both.
Do not incinerate or dispose of the battery as ordinary rubbish. The battery must be disposed
of in accordance with local regulations and may be recycled.
It is advised not to use the equipment at a refuelling point. Users are reminded to observe
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress. Never expose the battery to extreme temperatures (in excess of
60°C).
It is imperative that the driver exercises proper control of the vehicle at all times. Do not hold
a phone while you are driving; find a safe place to stop first. Do not speak into a handsfree
microphone if it will take your mind off the road. Always acquaint yourself thoroughly with
restrictions concerning the use of cellular phones within the area where you are driving and
observe them at all times.
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices,
such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Remember to disable the alarm function when in an aircraft or a medical facility to prevent the
phone automatically switching itself on.
For most efficient use hold the phone as you would any normal phone. To avoid deterioration
of signal quality or antenna performance, do not touch or "cup" the antenna area while the
phone is switched on. Do not leave the camera facing direct sunlight to avoid impairing
camera performance. Unauthorised modifications or attachments may damage the phone
and violate applicable regulations. The use of an unapproved modification or attachment may
result in the invalidation of your guarantee – this does not affect your statutory rights.
