FCC/IC Notice
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.
To comply with FCC radiation exposure requirements, use of this device for body-worn operational configurations is limited to accessories tested and approved by Kyocera Wireless Corp.
Other accessories used with this device for body-worn operations must not contain any metallic components and must provide at least 22.5 mm separation distance including the antenna and the user ’s body. Other accessories that have not been tested for body-worn SAR may not comply with FCC radiation exposure limits and should be avoided.
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
User Guide for the Kyocera 1155 phone v
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 standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the S pecific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC 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 the phone while operating can be well below th e maximum value.
This is because the phone 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 phone 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 sa fe exposure.
vi
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 for this model phone when tested fo r use at the ear is 1.47 W/kg and when worn on the body , as described in this user guide, is 0.562 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone s and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (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.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID OVFKWC-2255. Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA) web-site at: http://www.wow-com.com.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
fueling areas such as gas stations
below deck on boats
transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane or butane
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine
x
Use with care
Use only in normal position (to ear). Don’t bend the antenna or touch it unnecessarily. Pull out the antenna when on a ca ll and push it in when the phone is not in use. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.
Keep phone dry
If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately and return it to the dealer for service .
Resetting the phone
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does not respond to keypresses, reset the phone by completing the following steps:
1. Remove the battery door.
2. Remove and replace the battery.
If the problem persists, return the phone to the dealer for service.

Radio Frequency (RF) energy
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy. Y our service provider’s network controls the power of the RF signal. This power level can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watts.
In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones.
These guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies in the following reports:
ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards Institute, 1992) NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements, 1986) ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection, 1996) Your phone complies with the standards set by these reports and the
FCC guidelines.

1GETTING STARTED
This document describes the Kyocera 2235 trimode phone, with CDMA digital service at 800 MHz and 1900 MHz, and analog service at 800 MHz.
Your phone comes with an internal/removable lithium ion (LiIon) battery.
Installing the battery
1. Hold the phone face down.
2. Place your thumb in the groove on the
back of the phone, and slide the battery door down until it stops.
3. Lift the battery door off the phone.
4. Place the battery into the phone with
the metal contacts facing down.
5. Align the battery door to the grooves
on the top and side of the phone.
6. Slide the battery door up until it clicks
into place. Repeat if the battery door is not aligne d.
1 Getting Started
Do not force.
Charging the battery
The battery is partially charged when you receive your phone. You must have at least a partial charge in the battery to make or receive calls, regardless of whether or not the AC adapter is connected to the phone.
To charge the battery, connect the AC adapter to the proper jack on the bottom of the phone (as shown), then connect the adapter ’s plug to a wall outlet.
The battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen tells you whether the phone is:

Recharging the battery
You can safely recharge the battery at any time, eve n if it has a partial charge.
Caring for the battery
This page describes important safety information and tips for improving battery performance.
General safety guidelines
Do not take apart, puncture, or short-circuit the battery.
If you have not used the battery for more than a month, recharge it before
using your phone.
Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or
high humidity.
Never dispose of any battery in or near a fire. It could explode.
3 Getting Started
Common causes of battery drain
The following functions drain the battery more quickly and adversely affect talk and standby times:
You are often playing games.
Backlighting is frequently on. (To adjust backlighting, see page 59.)
The phone is frequently used in analog mode. If you do not see a on the home screen, the phone is in analog mode. To set your phone to operate in different modes, select
or Analog and choose from the options available.
You are far away from a base station or cell site when in digital mode.
Data cables or accessories, such as the Hands-free headset, are connected to the phone.
No service is available, or service is available intermittently. The phone requires more power to acquire service than to maintain consistent service.
The earpiece and ringer volume settings are high. To adjust volume, see page 55.
Review how often voicemail notifications, pages, and text messages are received, and how quickly they are acknowledged. To use power most efficiently, acknowledge notifications and messages immediately.
