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 
enhancements approved by Nokia for use with this device. 
When the device is on and being worn on the body, always 
use an approved holder or 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 device 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. 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; and 
hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to 
minimise the potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking 
place, switch off your device immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing 
aids. If interference occurs, consult your service provider.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately 
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as 
electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock) 
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag 
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer 
or its representative of your vehicle or any equipment that has 
been added.
