SAFETY AND
PRECAUTIONS
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully
before use.
CONDITIONS OF USE
Switch the phone off before boarding an aircraft. Use could lead to legal action
against the user.
Switch the phone off when in health care facilities except in areas specified. Like
many other types of equipment now in regular use, mobile telephones can
interfere with other electric or electronic devices.
Persons with a medical device (such as a pacemaker, hearing aid, insulin pump)
should not carry the phone in a place close to the device.
When placing or receiving a call, persons with a pacemaker or hearing aid
should use the ear on the opposite side to the device.
Switch your phone off when near gas or flammable liquids.
Strictly obey all signs and instructions when in a fuel depot, service station,
chemical plant or any potentially explosive atmosphere.
Do not let small children use the phone without supervision.
Do not attempt to open or repair it yourself.
Do not expose the phone to unfavourable environmental conditions (humidity,
rain, ingress of liquid, dust, sea air, etc.)
Outside the manufacturer’s recommended operating temperature range
(-20° C +55° C), the legibility of the phone’s display may be impaired and the
battery may not work, though this is temporary.

CONDITIONS OF USE FOR BATTERIES:
Only use batteries, battery chargers and accessories approved by the
manufacturer. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage caused by
use of other batteries, chargers or accessories.
Before removing the battery from your phone, please make sure that the
phone is switched off.
Do not attempt to open the battery because it contains chemical substances.
Do not dispose of used batteries in household waste.
Batteries must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable
environmental legislation.
Do not place battery in fire or in water.
Do not store above 60 ºC.
Do not allow + and - terminals to contact each other. Keep them away from
metal objects as nickel or coins.
Charge the battery in an area where the temperature is from 0º C to 45º C.
The battery discharges below -20º C and above 60º C.
The battery may discharge if it is not used for a sufficiently long period of time.
Do not let small children handle batteries without supervision.

TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Remember to always check whether local legislation allows operation of a
mobile phone while driving a vehicle.
It is vital to connect the phone to an external antenna when it is used in a
vehicle. Electromagnetic waves may otherwise interfere with the vehicle
electronics.
Check that the antenna is mounted and located away from the driver and
passengers or separated from them by a metal screen (e.g. car roof).
We recommend that you park your car before using the phone. However if you
intend to use your phone while driving, you must use it connected to the “Full-
duplex handsfree vehicle kit” (cf. chapter entitled “Accessories”, page 92).
Electromagnetic waves from the telephone may interfere with the operation of
the car’s electronic systems such as anti-lock brakes (ABS), airbags, etc.
Check with your car dealer or car manufacturer that these systems are
adequately shielded from mobile phone RF energy before using it in the vehicle.
Always avoid placing the phone on the dashboard.
GENERAL INFORMATION:
As with all radio transceivers, your mobile phone emits electromagnetic waves.
This phone conforms to international regulations when used under normal
conditions and in accordance with the instructions contained herein.
There has been speculation about the safety of mobile phones.

SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
Several expert groups belonging to or having been appointed by official national
or international bodies have analysed all the existing publications and, to date,
have concluded that there is a lack of evidence as to any credible or convincing
hazardous effects of mobile phones on health.
These studies have, in particular, focused on the fact that mobile handsets
receive and emit electromagnetic waves via their antenna.
Experts from such organizations as the European Commission and the
International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) have
established thresholds on a handset’s emissions to the human body. The main
measurement standard is known as SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). ALCATEL
can formally state that all its GSM mobile phones generate a SAR that is
significantly below these thresholds.
Furthermore, ALCATEL actively supports national and international research
into this issue carried out by authoritative and independent organizations.
If you still have concerns on this issue, you may use your mobile phone with a
headset, or use the handsfree feature integrated in the phone and, while
driving, use the full-duplex handsfree vehicle kit (cf. chapter entitled
“Accessories”, page 92).
The part numbers of these accessories can be found in the “Accessories”
chapter on page 92.)
The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage which may
result as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the
instructions contained herein.
Icons and other illustrations shown in this User’s Guide are for information
