Additional safety information

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

Operating environment

This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 2.2 centimeters (7/8 inches)
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.

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 that 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 inches
(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. Enter 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 mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed
the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines
is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level
of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes
depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base
station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device
at the ear is 0.84 W/kg (for Nokia 3155/3155i) or 0.86 W/kg (for Nokia 3152).

Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values.
SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements
and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product
information at www.nokia.com.

Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to
radio waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and
Industry Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over
1 gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during
product certification for use at the ear is 1.22 W/kg (for Nokia 3155/3155i) or
1.25 W/kg (for Nokia 3152) and when properly worn on the body is 0.78 W/kg
(for Nokia 3155/3155i) or 0.73 W/kg (for Nokia 3152). Information about this
device model can be found at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid by searching the
equipment authorization system using FCC ID: QMNRM-41 for
Nokia 3155/3155i or QMNRM-61 for Nokia 3152.
