handheld devices, except in the case of emergency. In some countries,
using hands-free devices as an alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel
frame of a building).
• Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as
microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories
that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate
your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this
device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external

10 HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider,
or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in
its normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and safety
of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human
body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the
equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified
antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of
performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well
as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your
country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF
energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always use
your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna
area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the
antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a
higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when
the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.

You can take information from your computer wherever you go by
synchronizing them to your device. The following types of information can
be synchronized between your computer and your device:
• Microsoft® Office Outlook® information, which include Office
Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes
• Notes, which are created using Microsoft® Office OneNote® 2007
• Media, such as pictures, music, and video
• Favorites, which are the bookmarked links to your favorite web sites
• Files, such as documents and other files
Before you can synchronize, you need to install and set up first the
synchronization software on your computer. For more information, see

Safety precautions for RF exposure
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories
that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate
your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
The wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in usage.
Normal conditions only ensure the radiative performance and safety of the
interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are
advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to
come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Appendix 229
This phone has been tested and meets the CE RF exposure guidelines when
used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset
at a minimum distance of 1.5cm from the body.
SAR Information
0.354 W/kg@10g (Body)
Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety
information
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld
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 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 the phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider,
or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external
RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn the phone OFF 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.
230 Appendix
WEEE Notice
The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which
entered into force as European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a
major change in the treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life.
The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the prevention of WEEE,
and in addition, to promote the reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery
of such wastes so as to reduce disposal.
The WEEE logo (shown at the left) on the product or on its box
indicates that this product must not be disposed of or dumped
with your other household waste. You are liable to dispose of all
your electronic or electrical waste equipment by relocating over
to the specified collection point for recycling of such hazardous
waste. Isolated collection and proper recovery of your electronic
and electrical waste equipment at the time of disposal will
allow us to help conserving natural resources. Moreover, proper
recycling of the electronic and electrical waste equipment will
ensure safety of human health and environment. For more
information about electronic and electrical waste equipment
disposal, recovery, and collection points, please contact your
local city center, household waste disposal service, shop from
where you purchased the equipment, or manufacturer of the
equipment.
RoHS Compliance
This product is in compliance with Directive 2002/95/EC of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 27 January 2003, on the restriction of the
use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment
(RoHS) and its amendments.
