SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 6 SAR STATEMENT Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed by the user of a wireless phone. Skeeper is designed and manufactured so as not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by international standards. These limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age or health. The SAR tests for the SKeeper were conducted with the device transmitting at its highest power level in all tested frequency bands. The SAR limit is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg). The highest SAR value of the SKeeper™ is 1.540 W/kg. The highest measured SAR value is 1.540 W/kg with the SKeeper™ situated next to the ear. To reduce RF energy absorbed to your body, do not use the SKeeper too close to your head/ear. Allow at least 10cm distance between the device and your head/ear.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 7 SAFETY INFORMATION To ensure safety and to maintain the SKeeper in good working condition, please read and follow these rules: SWITCH ON SAFETY Do not switch the SKeeper on when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. LOUDSPEAKER The SKeeper has built-in loudspeaker that allows you to speak and listen from a short distance without having to hold the device to your ear. Do not hold the device near your ear (less than 10cm) because the volume may be extremely loud. SAR In order to keep RF energy absorption (SAR) to a minimum, it is recommended that the SKeeper is used at a minimum distance of at least 10cm between the device and the head / ear. ROAD SAFETY COMES FIRST Obey all local laws. Always keep your hands free to operate the vehicle while driving. Your first consideration while driving should be road safety.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 8 SWITCH OFF IN HOSPITALS When in a hospital or any other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch the SKeeper off if instructed to do so by the guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. MEDICAL EQUIPMENT The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference from the SKeeper when placed close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact your physician to verify that the equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their SKeeper away from the pacemaker while it is on. SWITCH OFF IN AIRCRAFT Follow any restrictions. Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft. SWITCH OFF WHEN REFUELING Do not use the SKeeper at a refueling point. Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 9 SWITCH OFF NEAR BLASTING Do not operate the SKeeper in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Switch off the SKeeper when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any electrical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard. RADIO INTERFERENCE Your SKeeper receives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off the SKeeper wherever prohibited or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger. INTERFERENCE All wireless devices may be susceptible to interference, which could affect performance. WATER-RESISTANCE Your SKeeper is not water-resistant. Keep it dry. ENVIRONMENT Never leave the SKeeper exposed to direct sunlight or in environments with high humidity or dust levels.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 10 CLEANING Do not use liquids or strong detergents to clean the SKeeper. Follow the cleaning instructions given hereunder in this guide. QUALIFIED SERVICE Only qualified personnel may install or repair the SKeeper. Battery and SIM card replacement must be executed only by an authorized service facility. Never attempt to disassemble the SKeeper by yourself. Contact an authorized service facility in case of malfunctions or any other problems. EMERGENCY CALLS The SKeeper operates using radio signals and cellular networks that cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communication, for example emergency calls. In order to make or receive calls, the SKeeper must be switched on, its battery charged and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. AGE SKeeper is not recommended for children under the age of 3.

SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 29 CHARGING THE BATTERY The SKeeper is powered by a rechargeable battery that must be charged periodically. Before using the SKeeper for the first time, charge the battery for at least 2 hours. WHEN SHOULD I CHARGE THE BATTERY? When the battery is low, the orange LED flashes every 2 seconds and a beep sounds every minute. When this occurs, charge the battery as soon as possible. It is recommended to charge the battery every day in order to maintain maximum performance. TO CHARGE THE BATTERY: 1. Connect the supplied charger to the wall outlet and then to the SKeeper charger connector. The orange LED lights continuously.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 30 2. When the battery becomes fully charged the orange LED lights continuously and flashes every 3 seconds. 3. Disconnect the charger from the device, then from the wall outlet.  Do not connect the SKeeper to the charger while the SKeeper is worn on the body.  Do not charge the battery with a charger other than the one supplied with the SKeeper.  The use of any other charger may cause permanent damage to the SKeeper.  Do not connect the SKeeper charger to any other device except to the SKeeper.
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 31 The socket-outlet for the direct plug-in AC/DC adapter should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible. BATTERY INFORMATION The SKeeper is powered by a rechargeable battery. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter than normal, the battery should be replaced. Unplug the charger from the wall outlet and from the SKeeper when not in use. Do not leave SKeeper with a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time. Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any charger or battery that is damaged. Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look like metal strips on the battery). Short -circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object. Leaving the SKeeper in hot or cold places such as in closed cars in summer or winter conditions will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the SKeeper between 15°C and 25°C. A device with hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery
SKeeper™ - User Manual Page 32 performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste. Do not dismantle, open, or shred cells or batteries. In the event of battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. In the event of leak or a hazard seek medical help immediately. TO REPLACE THE BATTERY PLEASE CONTACT A SKEEPER AUTHORIZED SERVICE FACILITY. NO ATTEMPT SHOULD BE MADE TO OPEN THE SKEEPER OR TO REPLACE THE BATTERY BY YOURSELF OR THIS MAY VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
