Use of fully installed car kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate handsfree accessories. In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a cradle while using any form of handsfree accessory. While driving, we recommend that you use voicemail wherever possible, and that you listen to your messages when you are not in the car. If you must make a handsfree call when driving, keep it brief.

Electronic devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your device. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a 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. If you have a pacemaker:
Always keep your phone more than six inches (15cm) from your pacemaker when turned on. Do not carry your phone in your breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference Hearing aids Some digital phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, call ASUS Customer Service to discuss alternatives. Other medical devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone off immediately. 15 Turn your phone off in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy. Vehicles RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment added to your vehicle. Posted facilities Turn your phone off where posted notices so require. Magnetic media Magnetic fields generated by mobile devices may damage data on magnetic storage media, such as credit cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your phone next to such media. You should never expose your phone to strong magnetic fields as this may cause temporary malfunction. Other Safety Guidelines Aircraft Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft or turn off the wireless connections. Blasting areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in areas posted: Turn off two-way radio. Obey all signs and instructions. 16 Potentially explosive environments Turn your phone off when in any area with a potentially explosive environment and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as gas stations, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or articles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicles engine.

This section provides you with basic tips with regards to respecting others while using your mobile phone. Mobile manners Avoid talking on your mobile phone when in enclosed public places such as theaters, libraries, museums, places of worship, elevators, or auditoriums. Avoid using your mobile phone while doing other tasks such as driving, shopping, banking, waiting in line, or conducting other personal business. Look for a private place to take a call, and keep your phone conversations brief. Avoid using annoying ring tones. Avoid taking a call on your mobile phone during business meetings, appointments, or interviews. Talk on your mobile phone quietly, and do not shout. Put your mobile phone on silent or vibrator mode to avoid disturbing others. Ask permission before taking a picture or a video clip of another person. Avoid using capital letters when sending SMS messages as this can be interpreted as shouting. When making a call, introduce yourself to the person at the other end of the line, and do not hang up without saying goodbye. 18 Specifications Processor Operating System Memory Display Frequency band GPS GPRS Camera Connectivity TI OMAPTM 2431 450MHz + EMP U360 Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional

Ce dispositif de radiocommunication de categorie II respecte la norme CNR-310 dIndustrie Canada. Replaceable batteries If an equipment is provided with a replaceable battery and if replacement by an incorrect type could result in an explosion (e.g. with some lithium batteries), the following applies:
The marking or statement shall include the following or similar text:
if the battery is placed in an OPERATOR ACCESS AREA, there shall be a marking close to the battery or a statement in both the operating and the servicing instructions;
if the battery is placed elsewhere in the equipment, there shall be a marking close to the battery or a statement in the servicing instructions. CAUTION:
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS. 175 Operator access with a tool If a TOOL is necessary to gain access to an OPERATOR ACCESS AREA, either all other compartments within that area containing a hazard shall be inaccessible to the OPERATOR by the use of the same TOOL, or such compartments shall be marked to discourage OPERATOR access. An acceptable marking for an electric shock hazard is (ISO 3864, No. 5036). Equipment for restricted access locations For equipment intended only for installation in a RESTRICTED ACCESS LOCATION, the installation instructions shall contain a statement to this effect. WARNING: The user needs to switch off the device when exposed to areas with potentially explosive atmospheres such as petrol stations, chemical storage depots and blasting operations. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Bodyworn operation For bodyworn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the device at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the device is switched on. Exposure to radio waves THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL 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 176 independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health. The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobile devices used by the general public is W/kg. The highest CE SAR value for this device when tested for use on the head was 0.578 W/kg* and 0.715 W/kg* on the body. The highest FCC SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use on the head is 0.608 W/kg*
and 0.607 W/kg* on the body; co-transmitting for head was 0.666 W/kg* and 0.667 W/kg* for body. As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the network. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for safe exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for later products; in all cases, products are designed to be within the guidelines. The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or using a handsfree device to keep the mobile phone away from the head and body. Additional Information can be found on the websites of the World Health Organization
(http://www.who.int/emf).
The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for testing. The limit incorporates a substantial margin for safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Additional related information includes the ASUS testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product. 177 ASUS Address: 15 Li-Te Road, Peitou, Taipei, Taiwan Tel: 886228943447; Fax: 886228907698 Declaration We declare that the IMEI codes for this product, ASUS P560, are unique to each unit and only assigned to this model.

It is an offence, that while driving, to hold a phone or cradle it in your neck at any point, during the setup, making or taking of a phone call, text message or any other data related mobile communication. Use of fully installed car kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate handsfree accessories. In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a cradle while using any form of handsfree accessory. While driving, we recommend that you use voicemail wherever possible, and that you listen to your messages when you are not in the car. If you must make a handsfree call when driving, keep it brief. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag 1
or in the airbag deployment area. An airbag inflates with great force. If the airbag inflates, serious injury could result. Electronic devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your device. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a 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. If you have a pacemaker:
Always keep your phone more than six inches (15cm) from your pacemaker when turned on. Do not carry your phone in your breast pocket. Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference Hearing aids Some digital phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, call ASUS Customer Service to discuss alternatives. Other medical devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone off immediately. 15 Turn your phone off in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy. Vehicles RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment added to your vehicle. Posted facilities Turn your phone off where posted notices so require. Magnetic media Magnetic fields generated by mobile devices may damage data on magnetic storage media, such as credit cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your phone next to such media. You should never expose your phone to strong magnetic fields as this may cause temporary malfunction. Other Safety Guidelines Aircraft Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft or turn off the wireless connections. Blasting areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in areas posted: Turn off two-way radio. Obey all signs and instructions. 16 Potentially explosive environments Turn your phone off when in any area with a potentially explosive environment and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as gas stations, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or articles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicles engine. Choking Keep your phone away from children as the SIM card and other small parts present a choking hazard. Cautions Your device is a high quality piece of equipment. Before operating, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1) AC Adapter () Battery and (3) Product Using Battery.
