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 13.5 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.

User Guide for the Kyocera S14 Opal phone v

Your wireless phone is a radio t ransmitter and receiver. It is desi gned and
manufactured not to exceed the emission li mits for exposure to
radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guideli nes and establish permitted level s of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scient ific 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 st andard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific 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 cert ified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of t he phone while operati ng can be well belo w
the maximum value.

vi

This is b ecause the phone is desi gned to opera te at multiple power levels s o
as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a wireless base stat ion antenna, the lower the power output.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be test ed
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The test s 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 for use at the ear is 1.31 W/kg. and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.648 W/kg. (Body-
worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessori es and FCC requirements). While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.

User Guide for the Kyocera S14 Opal phone vii

The body-worn measurements were performed on the following Kyocera
accessories:

Holster CV90-B1680
Leather Case CA90-B1691M
Leather Case CA90-B1691S
SAR testing was performed with production battery CV90-G8196, Model

# TXBAT10003.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone

with all reported SAR level s evaluated as in compliance wi th 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

ЬннйWLLпппKСЕЕKЦзоLзЙнLСЕЕбЗ

after searching on FCC ID OVFKWC-5135.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found
on the Cellular Telecommunicati ons and I nternet Associati on (CTIA) web­site at http://www.wow-com.com.

viii

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watt s/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of ti ssue. The
standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for t he public and to ac count for any variations in measurement s.

Caution

The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party r esponsible f or compli ance could voi d the warrant y
and user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Warning

Use only Kyocera approved accessories with Kyocera phones. Use of
any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate the
phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a defect to the
phone.

Optimize your phone’s performance

Use the guidelines on see page 3 to learn how to optimize the
performance and life of your phone, ant enna, and battery.

Air bags

If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or portable phone
equipment or other objects over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. If equipment is not properly installed, you and your passengers risk
serious in ju r y.

Potentially unsafe areas

Posted facilit ies–Turn your phone off i n any f acili ty when post ed notices

require you to do so.
Aircraft–FCC regulations prohi bit using your phone on a plane that is in

the air. Turn your phone off before boarding aircraft .
Vehicles–RF signals may affect improperl y installed or inadequately

shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer of the device to determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able to help you obtain this
information.

Blasting areas–Turn off your phone where blast ing is in progress.
Observe restrict ions, and follow any regulations or rules.

x

Potentially explosive atmospher es–Turn off your phone when you are
in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fir e,
resulting in bodily injury or death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
clearly marked. They include:

• fueling areas such as gas stati ons

• 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 powd e rs

• any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine

User Guide for the Kyocera S14 Opal phone xi

Use with care

Use only in normal position ( to ear) . Don’t bend the ant enna or touch it
unnecessarily. Pull out the ant enna when on a call and push it i n when the
phone is not in use. A voi d dropping, hitting, bending, or sit ti ng on the phone.

Keep phone dry

If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately and contact your
dealer. Water damage may not be covered under warranty.

Resetting the phone

If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does no t respond to
keypresses, re set the phone by completing the following step s:

1. Push the battery release butt on toward the top of the phone.

2. Remove the battery.

3. Replace the battery.

If the problem persists, return the phone to the dealer for service.

xii

Qualified service

If you are experiencing problems with your phone, see “Getting Help” on
page 99. If you have addit ional questions, contact your service provider
for technical support. If the problem persists, return the phone with all
accessories and pa ckaging to the dealer for qualified service.

Accessories

Use only Kyocera-approved accessories with Kyocera phones. Use of
any unauthorized accessories (includes faceplates/front housings) may
be dangerous and will invalidate the phone warranty if said accessories
cause damage or a defect to the phone.

User Guide for the Kyocera S14 Opal phone xiii

Radio Frequency (RF) energy

Your telephone is a radio transmit ter and receiver. When it is on, it rec eives
and sends out RF energy. Your servic e provider’s network controls the
power of the RF signal. This power level can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watt s.

In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels f or hand-hel d wireless
phones. These guidelines are consistent with the safety st andards previously
set by both U.S. and internati onal st andards bodies i n the foll owing r eports:

• 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 repor ts and the
FCC guidelines.

Where service is available, this handset complies with the Phase I E911
Mandate issued by the FCC.
