Pursuant to such laws and regulations, it may be strictly forbidden totake photographs and/or to record the voices of other people or any of their personal attributes,and reproduce or distribute them, as this may be considered to be an invasion of privacy. It is theuser's sole responsibility to ensure that prior authorization be obtained, if necessary, in order torecord private or confidential conversations or take a photograph of another person; themanufacturer, the seller or vendor of your cellphone (including the operator) disclaim any liabilitywhich may result from the improper use of the cellphone.6Safety and use ............................We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your cellphone.The manufacturerdisclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or usecontrary to the instructions contained herein.•TRAFFIC SAFETY:Given that studies show that using a cellphone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk, evenwhen the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using theircellphone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the use of wirelesstelephones and their accessories in the areas where you drive.Always obey them.The use of thesedevices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas.When driving, do not use your cellphone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio. Usinga headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.When switched on, your cellphone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with thevehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is noproblem:- do not place your cellphone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the car’s electronic devicesare shielded from cellphone RF energy.•CONDITIONS OF USE:You are advised to switch off the telephone from time to time to optimize its performance.Switch the cellphone off before boarding an aircraft.Switch the cellphone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas.As withmany other types of equipment now in regular use, cellphones can interfere with other electricalor electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.Switch the cellphone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs andinstructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosiveatmosphere.When the cellphone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device suchas a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump. In particular when using the cellphone you shouldhold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your cellphone to your ear.Also movethe handset away from your ear while using the “hands-free” option because the amplified volumemight cause hearing damage.Do not let small children use your cellphone without supervision.When replacing the cover please note that your cellphone may contain substances that couldcreate an allergic reaction.Always handle your cellphone with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.Do not allow your cellphone to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions(moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc.).The manufacturer’s recommendedoperating temperature range is -10°C to +55°C (the max value depends on device, materials andhousing paint/texture). Over 55°C the legibility of the cellphone’s display may be impaired, thoughthis is temporary and not serious.5521-626_UM_USA_17-07-08 17/07/08 14:43 Page 5

•RADIO WAVES:THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIOWAVES.Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceedthe emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part ofcomprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizationsthrough periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.These guidelines include a substantialsafety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement known as the SpecificAbsorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the FederalCommunications Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kgaveraged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operatingpositions with the cellphone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequencybands.Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of thecellphone while operating can be well below the maximum value.This is because the cellphone isdesigned to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach thenetwork. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the poweroutput of the cellphone Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public, compliance withnational regulations and standards must be shown.The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested is OT-S626A : 1.03 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.13 W/Kg for use close to the body.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at variouspositions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation,the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallicaccessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensurecompliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does notindicate the need for any special precautions for use of cellphones. If individuals are concerned, theymight choose to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, orusing "hands-free" devices to keep cellphones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on thefollowing website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.8•BATTERY:Before removing the battery from your cellphone, please make sure that the cellphone is switchedoff.Observe the following precautions for battery use:- Do not attempt to open the battery (due to the risk of toxic fumes and burns).- Do not puncture, disassemble or cause a short-circuit in a battery,- Do not burn or dispose of a used battery in the garbage or store it at temperatures above 60 °C.Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental regulations.
