10 Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must uphold.
When operating a car, driving is your first responsibility. When
using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, practice
good common sense and remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as
speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual
and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones
offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also, work to
memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial
function without taking your attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. A number of
hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available
today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for
your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take
advantage of these devices if available to you.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure
you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where
you can reach it without removing your eyes from the road.
If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions
or situations. Let the person you are speaking with know you
are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or
hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can
be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
✂
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
If you are reading an address book or business card, or
writing a
to do list while driving a car, you are not watching
where you are going. It’s common sense. Don’t get caught in
a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and
not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your
wireless phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a
“Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where
lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try
to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to
coincide your calls with times you may be stopped at a stop
sign, red light or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial
while driving, follow this simple tip--dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and
driving do not mix--they are distracting and even dangerous
when you are behind the wheel of a car. Make people you
are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary,
suspend conversations which have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless
phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to protect
yourself and your family in dangerous situations--with your
phone at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial
911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergency.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless nonemergency assistance number when necessary. Certain
situations you encounter while driving may require attention,
but are not urgent enough to merit a call for emergency
services. But you still can use your wireless phone to lend a
hand. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious
hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where
no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen,
call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency
wireless numbers.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely
when driving.

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 radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population.
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 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 certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
phone while operating can be well below the maximum
value.
Because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels 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
.
The guidelines are based on
1
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 safe exposure. 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 for use at the
ear is 1.28 mW/g and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.83 mW/g. (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending
upon available accessories and FCC requirements). 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 file with the FCC
and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
BEJTM520.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)
can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) website at http://www.wow-com.com.
* 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.

SUBJECT
The VX1 phone has been designed to operate on the
latest digital mobile communication technology, Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA). This CDMA digital
technology has greatly enhanced voice clarity and can
provide a variety of advanced features. Currently,
CDMA mobile communication technology has been
commercially used in Cellular and Personal
Communication Service (PCS).
The difference between them is operating frequency
spectrum. Cellular uses 800Mhz and PCS
1.9Ghz. The VX1 operates on both frequencies, this is
called a dual-mode phone. Also, the VX1 works on
Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). We call it a trimode phone. If one of the Cellular, PCS or AMPS base
stations is located nearby,
call fail rate of a tri-mode
phone is less than a dual-mode phone or a single-mode
phone.
CDMA technology adopts DSSS (Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum). DSSS enables the phone to keep
communication from being crossed and to use one
frequency channel by multiple users in the same
specific area, resulting in a 10 fold increase in capacity
when compared with the analog mode currently used.
Soft/Softer Handoff, Hard Handoff, and Dynamic RF
power Control technologies are combined into this
phone to reduce call interruptions.
