Do not connect to products that create an output signal, as this may damage the device. Do not

connect any voltage source to the audio connector. If you connect an external device or headset,

other than those approved for use with this device, to the audio connector, pay special attention to

volume levels.

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 info stored on them may be

erased.

Some of the accessories mentioned in this user guide, such as charger, headset, or data cable, may

be sold separately.

Note: You can set the phone to ask for a security code. The pre-set code is 12345. Change it to

protect your privacy and personal data. Note, however, that when you change the code, you

need to remember the new code, as HMD Global is not able to open or bypass it.
