Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
d
when the phone is in use. Contact with
the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use
of wireless phones in the areas where you
drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your
phone while driving, please:
Give full attention to driving - driving
d
safely is your first responsibility;
Use hands-free operation, if available;
d
Pull off the road and park before making
d
or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.

Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 15cm (6 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
d
than 15cm (6 inches) from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned
ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast
d
pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the
d
pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that
d
interference is taking place, turn your
phone OFF immediately.
