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 RF exposure limits and should be avoided.

Part 15.19 statement

This device complies with part15 of FCC rules.Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.

(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Part 15.105 statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

For Your Safety

to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If you experience interference with reception (e.g.,television), determine if this equipment is causing the harmful interference by turning the equipment off and then back on to see if the interference is affected. If necessary, try correcting the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving

antenna.

Increase the separation between the

equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet

on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced

radio/TV technician for help.

Cautions for Battery

Do not disassemble or open crush, bend

or deform, puncture or shred.

 Do not modify or remanufacture,

attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.

 Only use the battery for the system for

which it is specified.

Only use the battery with a charging

system that has been qualified with the system per this standard. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.

Battery usage by children should be

supervised.

Avoid dropping the phone. If the

phone is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.

Improper battery use may result in a

fire, explosion or other hazard.

For those host devices that utilize

a USB port as a charging source,

For Your Safety

the host device’s user manual shall include a statement that the phone shall only be connected to products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.

Adapter (Charger) Cautions

Using the wrong battery charger could

damage your phone and void your warranty.

The adapter or battery charger is

intended for indoor use only.

Do not expose the adapter or battery charger to direct sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as the bathroom.

Avoid damage to your hearing

Damage to your hearing can occur

if you are exposed to loud sound for long periods of time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn on or off the handset close to your ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.

If you are listening to music while

out and about, please ensure that the volume is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is particularly imperative when attempting to cross the street.

Wi-Fi Caution

This device is capable of operating in

802.11a/n mode. For 802.11a/n devices operating in the frequency range of

5.15 – 5.25 GHz, they are restricted for indoor operations to reduce any potential harmful interference for Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) in the US. WIFI Access Points that are capable of allowing your device to operate in 802.11a/n mode(5.15 – 5.25 GHz band) are optimized for indoor use only.

If your WIFI network is capable of operating in this mode, please restrict your WIFI use indoors to not violate federal regulations to protect Mobile Satellite Services.

Safety Guidelines

TIA Safety Information

Provided herein is the complete TIA Safety Information for Wireless Handheld phones. Inclusion of the text covering Pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and Other Medical Devices is required in the owner’s manual for CTIA Certification. Use of the remaining TIA language is encouraged when appropriate.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a lowpower radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) * NCRP Report 86 (1986)

100

ICNIRP (1996) Those standards were based on

comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).

* American National Standards Institute;

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently: Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with
