Safety instructions
TIA's Safety Information
This includes complete security information on wireless phones from TIA
(Telecommunications Industry Association).
It's required, for CTIA Certification, the inclusion in the user manual of text covering
pacemakers, hearing aids and other medical devices. It's encouraged the use of the
remaining TIA language when relevant.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (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)
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).

Create a Google account before setting an unlock pattern and remember
the Backup PIN you created when creating your pattern lock.
Caution! If you haven't created a Google account on the phone and you
forgot your PIN, Password, and the backup PIN, you need to perform a
hard reset. But if you perform a hard reset, all user applications and user
data will be deleted. Please remember to back up any important data before
performing a hard reset.
TIP! Smart Lock
You can use Smart Lock to make unlocking your phone easier. You can set
it to keep your phone unlocked when you have a trusted Bluetooth device
connected to it, when it's in a familiar location like your home or when it
recognizes your face or voice or on-body detection.
