Safety and General Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. READ
THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR PHONE.
Users are not permitted to make changes or modify the device in any way. Changes
or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. See 47 CFR Sec. 15.21.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation. See 47 CFR Sec. 15.19(3).
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your
phone in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health
care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

Safety and General Information
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your phone when on board an aircraft. Any use of
a phone must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew
instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone and Bluetooth phone module more than six inches (15
centimeters) from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
• NOT carry the phone and Bluetooth phone module in the breast pocket.
• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.

Troubleshooting
Error Resolution
Bluetooth Module Not
Attached
Bluetooth Bond Failed:
List Full
Invalid: Bluetooth
Passkey
No links found The module found no devices during a scan.
Check to make sure that the Bluetooth module is
attached and connected correctly. This error appears
if the module was attached but became loose or
unattached.
Your phone may display this error when you try to
establish a bond connection between your module
and another device.
The reason for this error is that your module uses a
small amount of memory to establish connections. If
your device list is full, your module does not have
enough memory to use.
To resolve the error, delete one or more items from
your device list (refer to “Deleting a Device in Your
Device List” on page 20). Then try the connection
again from the beginning.
If you enter an incorrect Passkey, you need to start
the bond again. You do not get another chance to
enter the Passkey.
