Additional safety information
Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of the reach of small children.
■ Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area, and always switch off your device when its use is prohibited
or when it may cause interference or danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions. This device meets RF
exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least 2.2 centimeters
(7/8 inch) away from the body. When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should not contain
metal and should position the device the above-stated distance from your body.
To transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of
data files or messages may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure that the above separation distance
instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device. Do not place credit cards or other
magnetic storage media near the device, because information stored on them may be erased.
■ Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may interfere with the functionality of
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they
are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch off your device 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.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a
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
do the following:
•
Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the pacemaker

•
Not carry the device in a breast pocket
•
Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
If you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move the device away.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference occurs, consult your service provider.
■ Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as electronic
fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, an air bag systems.
For more information, check with the manufacturer or its representative of your vehicle or any equipment that has been
added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be
dangerous and may invalidate any warranty that may apply to the device. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment
in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the device, its parts, or enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that air
bags inflate with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off your device before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
teledevices in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, and may
be illegal.
■ Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres include areas where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device at refueling
points such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage,
and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage

facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
■ Emergency calls
Important: Wireless phones, including this device, operate using radio signals, wireless networks, landline
networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
You should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential communications like medical emergencies.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength.
Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly inserted in the device.
2. Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the device for calls.
3. Enter the official emergency number for your present location. Emergency numbers vary by location.
4. Press the call key.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult
this guide or your service provider for more information.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Your wireless device may be
the only means of communication at the scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
■ Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The
SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such
122

as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at
the ear is 0.74 W/kg.
Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on national
reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product
information at www.nokia.com.
