CAUTION : RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN

INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE

INSTRUCTIONS

• CHARGERS

Home A.C./ Travel chargers will operate within the temperature range of:

0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).

The chargers designed for your mobile phone meet with the standard for safety of information technology equipment and office equipment use. Due to different applicable electrical specifications, a charger you purchased in one jurisdiction may not work in another jurisdiction. They should be used for this purpose only.

Characteristics of power supply (depending on the country):

Travel ch arger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz, 0.15 A

Output: 5 V, 550 mA

Battery: Lithium 1000 mAh

• RADIO WAVES:

THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR

EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your mobile 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. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the mobile phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.

Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the mobile phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output of the mobile phone. Before a mobile phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.

25 26

The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone when tested is 0.826

W/Kg (Vodafone Chat 655/655W) for use at the ear and 1.06 W/Kg

(Vodafone Chat 655W, with 1.0cm distances), 0.685 W/Kg (Vodafone Chat

655, with 1.5 cm distances) for use close to the body.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various mobile phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the mobile phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular

Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http:// www.phonefacts.net

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using “hands-free” devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193). Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC

Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.
