children.

Do not place the phone near toelectromagnetic data carrierssuch as credit cards and floppydisks. Information stored onthem could be lost.

5/134

Safety precautions4

The mains voltage specifiedon the power supply unit (V)must not be exceeded.Otherwise the charging device

may be destroyed.The power supply must beplugged into an easily accessi-ble AC mains power socketwhen charging the battery.The only way to turn off thecharging device after chargingthe battery is to unplug it.

You may only open the phoneto replace the battery(100 % mercury-free) or SIMCard and Micro SD Card. Youmust not open the battery un-der any circumstances. All oth-er changes to this device arestrictly prohibited and willinvalidate the guarantee.

The phone may cause interfer-ence in the vicinity of TV sets,radios and PCs.

Use only original accessories.This will avoid potentialrisks to health or propertyand ensure compliance with allrelevant regulations.

All electrical and electronicproducts should be disposed ofseparately from the municipalwaste stream via designated

collection facilities appointedby the government or the localauthorities.

This crossed-out wheelie binsymbol on the product meansthe product is covered by theEuropean Directive2002/96/EC.

The correct disposal and sepa-rate collection of your oldappliance will help prevent po-tential negative consequencesfor the environment and hu-man health. It is a preconditionfor re-use and recycling ofused electrical and electronicequipment.

For more detailed informationabout disposal of your old ap-pliance, please contact your lo-cal council, waste disposalservice or the shop where youpurchased the product.

Improper use will invalidate the guaran-tee! These safety instructions also apply tooriginal accessories.

As mobile devices offer a range of func-tions, they can be used in positions otherthan the head, such as on the body. In thiscase, separation distance of 1.5 cmisrequired.


6/134

5Safety precautions

BluetoothYour phone has a Bluetooth interface. Thismakes it possible to establish a wirelessconnection with your phone and a headset,

car kit, or other Bluetooth-enabled devices.In order to establish a secure link betweenthe devices and to prevent a third partyfrom having access to your phone, youshould observe the following points: The initial connection between two

devices, what is called "pairing", shouldtake place in familiar surroundings.

Both devices must be able to identifythemselves once by using a pass-word/PIN. To ensure sufficient security,you should choose a 16-digit numbercombination for a password that wouldbe difficult to guess (if a PIN has not beenassigned).

An automatic connection acceptance("connection without confirmation")should only be used in exceptional cases.

In general, only trustworthy devicesshould be linked in order to minimizesecurity risks.

You should restrict the "visibility"of yourphone if possible. This will make it muchmore difficult for unknown devices toestablish a connection with your phone.To do this, in the Bluetooth menu, setthe option Visible t. othersfrom Alwaysvisibleto Not visible(see page 68).

The name of your phone is transmitted ina Bluetooth connection. The factory de-fault is the "Bluetooth ID". The first timeBluetooth is activated, or later in theBluetooth menu, you can change thisname (My BT info, page 68).

If Bluetooth is not needed, this functionshould be deactivated.

Before using Bluetooth accessories, or amobile phone inside a vehicle, check thevehicle user guide for any limitations on theuse of these products.

The Bluetoothword mark and logos areowned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and any useof such marks by BenQ Corp. is underlicence. Other trademarks and tradenames are those of their respectiveowners.
