General safety & handling
While using your phone, be aware of the following
common-sense guidelines.
Your environment
• Safe operating temperatures. Do not use
or store in ambient temperatures lower than
–20°C (–4°F) or higher than 50°C (122°F).
• In automobiles. Do not leave your phone or
set up the hands-free kit near the air bag. If
wireless equipment is improperly installed and
the air bag is deployed, you may be seriously
injured.
• When children are present. The SIM card
ejection tool and the SIM card tray included
with Nexus 5 are very small objects that
represent a choking hazard. Keep them out of
reach of small children.
• Around explosives. Do not use in areas where
sparks from the phone might cause a fi re or
explosion.

• On airplanes. Observe all rules and instructions
for use of electronic devices. Most airlines
allow electronic use only between and not
during takeoffs and landings. There are
three main types of airport security devices:
X-ray machines (used on items placed on
conveyor belts), magnetic detectors (used on
people walking through security checks), and
magnetic wands (hand-held devices used on
people or individual items). You can send your
Nexus 5 through airport X-ray machines. But do
not send it through airport magnetic detectors
or expose it to magnetic wands.
Emergency call limitations
• You can use your phone for an emergency call
only if it is turned on and you are located within
your carrier's service area.

Pacemakers and other medical devices
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6)
inches from their pacemaker when the phone
is turned ON.
• Not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for RF interference.
• Turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any
indication that interference is taking place.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult your
physician or the manufacturer of your device to determine
if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy.
FCC Hearing aid compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for wireless devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modifi ed the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to
ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
6 NEXU S 5NEXU
While using some wireless phones near some hearing devices
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), you may detect a buzzing,
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more
immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also
vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system
for wireless phones, to assist hearing device users to fi nd
phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not
all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating
on their box or a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results vary depending on your
hearing device and degree of hearing loss. If your hearing device
is vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated
phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing
device is the best way to evaluate it.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than
phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices
than phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the
two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you
fi nd this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is
relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and
wireless phone rating values are then added together. A sum
of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is
considered acceptable for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating
and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of
the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid
user with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the
particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context is
defi ned as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark.
The T mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark.
The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT
marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The
HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
To ensure that the HAC rating for your phone is maintained,
secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth and WLAN
components must be disabled during a call.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids
for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there
may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone
that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is
important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly
and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear
implant to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult
your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for
information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions
about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider
or phone retailer.

Exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), with its action in Report and Order FCC
96-326, adopted an updated safety standard for human
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC-regulated transmitters. The design of
this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards.
Body-worn operation (U.S. and Canada): This device was
tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of
the phone kept 0.39 inches (1cm) between the user’s body
and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC/IC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance
of 0.39 inches (1cm) must be maintained between your
body and the back of the phone. Do not use third-party beltclips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic
components. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain
0.39 inches (1cm) separation distance between the user’s
body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested
for typical body-worn operations, may not comply with
FCC/IC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
Specifi c Absorption Rate (SAR) values
Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy set
by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. 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 Specifi c Absorption
Rate, or SAR. 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.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions specifi ed by the FCC with the phone transmitting
at its highest certifi ed power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certifi ed
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone during
operation can be well below the maximum value. Because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels
and 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.
10 NE XUS 5NEXU
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested
for use at the ear is 0.96 W/kg and for body-worn/hotspot
is 1.05 W/kg. While there may be differences between SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
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 fi le with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section
of http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching
on FCC ID ZNFD820. Additional information on Specifi c
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website
at http://www.ctia.org/.
Hearing protection
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is
the most common cause of preventable hearing loss.
Some scientifi c research suggests that using portable
audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular
phones, at high volume settings for long durations may
lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This
includes the use of headphones (including headsets,
earbuds, and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices).
Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated
in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear),
hypersensitivity to sound, and distorted hearing. Individual
susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other
potential hearing problems varies.
The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device
varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device, the
device settings and the headphones.
When using any portable audio device:
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and
select the lowest volume at which you can hear
adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume
down if you cannot hear the people speaking
near you or if the person sitting next to you can
hear what you are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy
surroundings.
• If you choose to listen to your portable device
in a noisy environment, use noise-canceling
headphones to block out background
environmental noise.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the
volume increases, less time is required before
your hearing could be affected.
