21. Important safety information

Traffic Safety
Do not use a hand-held device while driving a vehicle. Do not
place the device on the passenger seat or where it can break
loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any
area and always switch off your device whenever it is
forbidden to use a phone or a gaming device, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
Use the device only in its normal operating positions.
To maintain compliance with RF exposure guidelines only use
Nokia approved accessories. When the phone is on and being
worn on the body, always use a Nokia approved carrying case.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be
attracted to the device, and persons with a hearing aid should
not hold the device to the ear with the hearing aid. Always
secure the device in its holder, because metallic materials
may be attracted by the earpiece. Do not place credit cards or
other magnetic storage media near the device, because
information stored on them may be erased.

Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
device.
Pacemakers Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be maintained
between a handheld wireless device 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 20 cm (6 inches)
from their pacemaker when the device is switched on;
• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket;
• Should use 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. In the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your service provider.
Other medical devices Operation of any radio transmitting
equipment, including cellular devices, may interfere with the
functionality of inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device
