Safety Information  
For your safety, please read the guidelines below carefully  
before you use your phone:  
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals  
Max. SAR measurement  
EU: GSM900: 0.398 W/Kg; DCS1800: 0.189 W/Kg.  
USA: PCS1900:0.27 W/Kg (head); 0.884 W/Kg (body).  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power transmitter and  
receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency  
(RF) signals.  
European and international agencies have set standards and  
recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF  
electromagnetic energy.  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection  
(ICNIRP) 1996  
Verband Deutscher Elektroingenieure (VDE) DIN- 0848  
Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in  
Matters of Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy  
National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11,  
1988  
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1- 1992  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).  
Report 86  
Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6  
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example,  
over 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,  
Safety Information  
i
 
 
government health agencies and industry reviewed the available body of  
research to develop the updated ANSI Standard.  
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used  
normally.  
Specific Operating Restrictions  
No metallic component allowed in body-worn accessories.  
Phone Operation  
Normal Position: Hold the phone as you would with any other  
telephone.  
To avoid potential RF interference, please do not wear the phone  
around your neck or in front your chest for long hours.  
Batteries  
For safety concerns, when the temperature of the phone goes over  
45 ° C (113F) or below 0 ° C (32F), charging will halt.  
Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10 ° C (14F) or above  
45 ° C (113F). Always take your phone with you when you leave your  
vehicle.  
Use only genuine BenQ battery to ensure the phone’s normal  
operation.  
All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive  
material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touches exposed terminals.  
The material may complete electrical circuit and become quite hot. To  
protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any  
charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or  
other container with metal objects. When battery is detached from the  
phone, your batteries are packed with a protective battery cover; please  
use this cover for storing your batteries when not in use.  
ii  
Safety Information  
 
Driving  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the  
areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while  
driving, please:  
Give full attention to driving--driving safety is your first responsibility.  
Use hands-free operation, if available.  
Pull off the road and park before making 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 six (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 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 the interference is taking place, turn  
your phone OFF immediately.  
Safety Information  
iii  
 
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the  
event of such interference you may want to consult your hearing aid  
manufacturer 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 your 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.  
Vehicles  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its  
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the  
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Posted Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notice so requires.  
Aircraft  
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF  
your phone before boarding an aircraft.  
iv  
Safety Information  
 
Blasting Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when  
in a “blasting area” or in area posted “TURN OFF TWO-WAY RADIO.”  
Obey all signs and instructions.  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn your phone OFF and do not remove the battery when in any area  
with  
a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and  
instructions. Sparks, from your battery, in such areas could cause an  
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always  
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below  
deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using  
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air  
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and  
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your  
vehicle engine.  
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag  
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both  
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.  
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  
1. this device may not cause harmful interference, and  
2. this device must accept any interference received, including  
interference that may cause undesired operation.  
Safety Information  
v
 
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party  
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate  
the equipment.  
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC  
RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal  
and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use  
of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF  
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not  
holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm  
from your body when the phone is switched on.
