• ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION

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. To maintain compliance with radio frequency
exposure guidelines only use accessories approved by Nokia for use with this device. When
the device is on and being worn on the body, always use an approved carrying case.

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 phone 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 6 in (15.3 cm) 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. To minimize the potential for
interference, persons with pacemakers should

Always keep the device more than 6 in (15.3 cm) from their pacemaker when the device
is switched on

Not carry the device in a breast pocket

Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your
device immediately.

HEARING AID

Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference occurs,
consult your service provider.
