Additional safety information
Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts.
Keep them out of the reach of small children.
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. This device
meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal
use position against the ear or when positioned at least
1.5 centimeters (5/8 inches) away from the body. When a
carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation,
it should not contain metal and should position the device the
above-stated distance from your body.
In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires
a good quality connection to the network. In some cases,
transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until
such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation
distance instructions are followed until the transmission is
completed.
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 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) 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 do the following:
•
Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters
(6 inches) from the pacemaker
•
Not carry the device in a breast pocket
•
Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.
If you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move
the device away.
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, and air bag
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer,
or its representative, of your vehicle or any equipment that
has been added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device, or install
the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be
dangerous and may invalidate any warranty that may apply to
the device. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment
in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not
store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials
in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or
enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag,
remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not place
objects, including 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.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch
off your device before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless
teledevices in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation
of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, and
may be illegal.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres include areas where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device at
refueling points such as near gas pumps at service stations.
Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel
depots, storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or
where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a
potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical
transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), and areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or
metal powders.
Emergency calls
Important: Wireless phones, including this device,
operate using radio signals, wireless networks, landline
networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this,
connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You
should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential
communications like medical emergencies.

To make an emergency call:
1
If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate
signal strength.
Some networks may require that a valid SIM card is
properly inserted in the device.
2
Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the
display and ready the device for calls.
3
Enter the official emergency number for your present
location. Emergency numbers vary by location.
4
Press the call key.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those
features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult
this guide or your service provider for more information.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Your wireless device
may be the only means of communication at the scene of an
accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
Certification information (SAR)
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by
international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines were
developed by independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit stated in the international guidelines is
2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)*. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions with the device transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the device is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the
device.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at
the ear is 0.95 W/kg.
SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and
testing requirements and the network band. Use of device
accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR
values. Additional SAR information may be provided under
product information at www.nokia.com.
* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 W/
kg averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines
incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national
reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR
