Owasys will not be held responsible for the consequences resulting from improper use of the telephone or the noncompliance with the guidelines and instructions contained in this manual. |
Before using your owasys22C mobile phone, carefully read the following instructions:
Using your mobile phone while driving:
Consult your local laws and regulations to see if they restrict the use of mobile phones while driving. The regulations require you keep your hands free. Always keep your attention on your driving. Leave the road and park before answering your phone or making a call if the driving conditions require it.
The radiowaves emitted by your phone can interfere with certain electronic systems in your car, such as audio equipment, security devices, etc. Some automobile manufacturers do not allow the use of a phone unless the automobile is equipped with a hands-free device and an external antenna. Consult with the dealer you purchased your car from to see if your mobile phone will interfere with the electronic systems on your car.
Do not place any objects or devices over the air bag or in the deployment area. If the air bag were to inflate, it could cause serious injury.
Electronic Devices
The majority of modern electronic equipment, such as the equipment in hospitals and cars, is protected against radio waves. However, some equipment is not. For this reason, we recommend that you turn your phone off in hospitals and health centers as it may affect the functioning of some medical equipment (deaf-aids, pacemakers...) Avoid placing the phone near any medical equipment in question. A distance of 15 cm between the phone and the device reduces the risk of interference. For example, when answering the phone, use it on the side of the body opposite from the device.
If you use some other type of medical device, consult with the device’s maker to see if it is protected from external radio wave emissions. Turn the mobile phone off when you are in areas that have signs requiring you to do so.
Airplanes
Do not use the mobile phone inside airplanes as it can create interference with the flight equipment that uses radio waves. Turn the phone off before boarding the plane. To prevent interference with the in-flight communications systems, refrain from using the mobile phone while the airplane is in the air.
Also, do not use the phone on the ground until the flight crew has given you permission.
Detonation Areas
Do not use the phone in detonation areas or areas with signs warning to turn off mobile phones. This is to prevent interference with the detonation operations.
Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off the phone in areas that may be explosive. It’s uncommon, but the phone or accessories could generate sparks that may set off explosions or fires that will cause personal harm. Areas that may be this way should be well marked with signs.
Do not transport or store flammable or explosive liquids or gasses in the same vehicle compartment with the mobile phone or its accessories.
Electric Supplies
Plug the alternating current (AC) electric adaptor only into outlets as shown on the product.
To reduce the risk of damage to the cable, remove it from the outlet only by supporting it by the alternating current adaptor.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the unit from the outlet before cleaning it.
Be sure the cable is not walked on, is not tense, and is not exposed to damage.
The alternating current adaptor should not be used in the open air or in damp conditions.
Do not change the cable or the alternating current plug. An improper connection can produce electric discharges.
Children
Keep children away from the phone and its accessories. They can injure themselves or accidentally cause damage to the phone or its accessories.
Keep the removible SIM card out of the reach of children as there is a risk they could swallow it.
Disposal of the Mobile Phone
Do not throw the phone in the trash. Consult your local regulations regarding the disposal of electronic products.
Emergency Calling
Remember that for the phone to be able to make and receive calls, it needs to be turned on and have coverage. Consult with the network operator about the possibility of making emergency calls.
In any case, do not rely solely on the mobile phone to make emergency calls.
Information Regarding the Battery
The battery that comes with your phone is not completely charged. We recommend you charge it at least three hours before first using it.
The time it takes to talk and standby depends on the transmission conditions while using the phone. If you use the mobile phone close to a base station, less power is required and the wait time becomes longer.
Only use batteries, chargers, and accessories that are compatible with the model of your phone and are recommended by Owasys. Using inappropriate equipment can generate health risks or can damage the equipment because of incompatible devices.
Do not expose your battery to extreme temperatures above 60 degrees Celsius. To maximize the battery capacity, use it at room temperature. At lower temperatures, the battery life is reduced.
Turn the phone off before removing the battery.
Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for prolongued periods of time.
Do not let the metallic contacts on the battery come in contact with other metallic objects. Doing so would produce a short circuit that will damage the battery.
Do not try to disassemble the battery.
Do not expose the battery to flame or liquids.
Do not place the battery in your mouth.
Dispose of batteries and telephones respecting the environmental regulations in place.
Hands-Free Mode
Your phone includes a powerful speaker that can function in hands-free mode. To avoid damaging your hearing, avoid placing the speaker to your ear when this mode is engaged.
