Using your phone safely On the road Using a phone while driving is illegal in many countries. Please follow local laws and drive safely at all times. Near sensitive electronics Don’t use your phone near sensitive electronic equipment – particularly medical devices such as pacemakers – as it could cause them to malfunction. It can also interfere with the operation of fire detectors and other automatic-control equipment.
turn it off when you’re asked to by posted warnings or medical staff. At a petrol station Don’t use your phone at petrol stations. In fact, it’s always best to switch off whenever you’re near fuels, chemicals or explosives. Around water Keep your phone away from water (or any other liquid). It’s not a waterproof model. Making repairs Never take your phone apart. Please leave that to the professionals. Unauthorized repairs could break the terms of your warranty.
unapproved accessories may affect performance, make the warranty void, break national regulations on the use of phones, or even cause injury. Near explosives Turn off your phone in or near areas where explosive materials are used. Always obey local laws and turn off your phone when requested. Emergency calls To make an emergency call your phone must be turned on and in an area where there’s network coverage. Dial the national emergency number and touch the Send icon.
Battery care and safety Although the battery is rechargeable, it’ll eventually start to lose its ability to recharge. If you find that the battery won’t recharge, it’s time to replace it. Please don’t throw old batteries into your household rubbish. You’ll find there are special bins for batteries at refuse collection points. And some high street electrical stores provide a battery recycling service too.
Charger care and safety Only plug into voltages between 110VAC and 240VAC. Using a voltage outside that range can damage the phone/charger – and cause the battery to leak or catch fire. Never short-circuit the charger – this may cause electrocution, overheating or damage. Don’t charge the phone in direct sunlight or in an area where it’s damp, dusty, or on a vibrating surface. And charging your phone near – or on – a TV or radio could interfere with transmission.
Care and maintenance Your phone is a delicate device. The following advice will help you to keep it looking good and performing well… Use a soft dry cloth to clean your phone, battery and charger. Don’t use liquids such as alcohol, dilution agents or benzene. From time-to-time, clean the socket where the charger cable connects to the phone. Dust tends to gather there. This will ensure a really good connection. Don’t use needles, pen points or other sharp objects on the keypad or screen.
