Additional safety information

Operating environment

Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of the
reach of small children.

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
of when positioned at least 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) 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 at least 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) away from your body.

In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a 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 6 in (15.3 cm)
be maintained between a wireless device or 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. To minimize the potential for interference, persons with pacemakers should

Always keep the device more than 6 inches (15.3 cm) from their pacemaker
when the device is switched on

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 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.

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 an
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.

FCC regulations prohibit using your wireless device while in the air. The use of
wireless telephones 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 refuelling 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.

Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of telephone
services to the offender, legal action, or both.

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, make sure your device is properly charged before
attempting any emergency calls. If your battery becomes empty, you cannot
receive or make calls, including emergency calls and must wait a few minutes
after the charging begins to place your call.

1. If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength. Some

networks may require that a valid UIM (CDMA 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. Key in the official emergency number for your present location and press the

call key. Emergency numbers vary by location.

If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features off before
you can make an emergency call. If the device is in an offline or flight mode you
must change the profile to activate the device function before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this guide or your service provider. 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 NOKIA RM-60 MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS 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) energy
set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standards for wireless mobile devices employ a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is
1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg).* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the RCC with the phone 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 level of an operating device 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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.

Before a device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.

The highest SAR value reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is
1.24 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.26 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending
upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.)

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at
various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted
an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information
on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display
Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
QMNRM-60.

For body-worn operations, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines for use with a carry case, belt clip or holder that contains no
metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) away from
the body. Use of other carry cases, belt clips or holders may not ensure compliance
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn enhancement
and are not holding the phone at the ear, positions the handset a minimum of
7/8 inch (2.2 cm) away from your body when the phone is switched on.

*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone used by the public
is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates 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
information in other regions, please look under product information at
www.nokiausa.com.
