Safety Information

Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals

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:

•

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C95.1 (1992) National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Report 86 (1986)

•

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (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).

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.

Phone Operation

Normal Position: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on Efﬁcient Operation: For your phone to operate most efﬁciently:

•

Extend your antenna fully.

Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the

•

antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power

level than needed.

Batteries Caution:

such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains, touches exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. When the battery is detached from the phone, your batteries are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for storing your batteries when not in use.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using the phone while driving, please:

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive material,

Give full attention to driving—driving safely is your ﬁrst responsibility.

•

Use hands-free operation, if available.

Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions

•

so require.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

•

Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the

phone is turned on.

•

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

•

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone

off immediately.

Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn your phone off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Turn your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch your phone off before boarding any aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit off when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your phone off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or ﬁre resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liqueﬁed petroleum gas (such as propane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Do not transport or store ﬂammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your phone or accessories.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inﬂates with great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inﬂates, serious injury could result.

Technology Overview

A number of different standards and technologies for wireless phones exist. This overview gives you a brief description of these technologies to help you understand the differences.

Iridium System

With 66 satellites forming a cross-linked grid above the Earth, the Iridium system is the first low-Earthorbiting (780 km/485 miles high) system for wireless telephone service. The satellites are close enough to receive the signals of a handheld device and they act like cellular towers in the sky—where wireless signals can move overhead instead of through ground-based cells.

The Iridium system uses a combination of FDMA and TDMA signals to make the most efficient use of limited frequency range (1616-1626.5 MHz). When the phone is in Iridium satellite mode, it uses GSM technology. The optional cellular cassettes enable your satellite phone to access other cellular and PCS systems.

Cellular

Cellular is the term used to refer to the wireless phone systems that originated in the United States and originally operated at the 800 MHz radio frequency range. The FCC allocated this frequency range for cellular technology in 1983. AMPS, NAMPS, GSM, TDMA, and CDMA technologies are all currently available in this frequency range. In North America there is a maximum of two cellular operators in each market. These operators are referred to as the Wireline (landline phone company) and the Non-Wireline carrier.

Welcome! 13

PCS (Personal Communications Service)

In order to create additional competition in wireless telephony service, the FCC allocated the 1900 MHz range for wireless phone systems as well. GSM, TDMA, and CDMA technologies are available in this frequency range. Personal Communications Service (PCS) is the name adopted by the new, wireless service providers who operate at 1900 MHz. There are up to three PCS operators on the air in most major markets.

Analog T echnologies

In analog communications, voice messages are transmitted as sound waves. When someone speaks in into an analog wireless phone, the voice wave is linked to a radio wave and transmitted.

The following are analog standards:

AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone Service)

This has been the original standard for cellular products in the United States. All customers should be able to use their AMPS cellular cassette in any cellular market across the Americas.

NAMPS (Narrowband Advanced Mobile Phone Service)

This is the next generation analog version of the AMPS system, which uses some digital technology to allow the network to carry three times the number of conversations as well as offering some enhanced features such as messaging. NAMPS cellular cassettes automatically switch to AMPS mode when you are in an area where NAMPS systems are not available.

14 Welcome!

Digital T echnologies

In digital communications, the sound wave created by your voice is converted into a stream of 1s and 0s. Once digitized, this information is compressed and manipulated in such a way that the security of the conversation is enhanced and the background noise is reduced.

The following are digital standards:

TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access)

TDMA allows multiple users to share the same voice channel by having each conversion transmitted alternately over short lengths of time. Each user is allotted a specific time slot

FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access)

FDMA separates communications by frequency. This system assigns users separate frequencies on which to communicate.

CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)

CDMA separates communications by code. This way, the system can mix a number of calls into the same channel. When the tower receives the information, it looks at the coding and reassembles each individual call, completing the transmission.

GSM (Global System for Mobile communication)

This is the name of a TDMA type of digital system originally developed in Europe, and common throughout Asia. This system is used by some of the PCS operators in the United States.

IS-41 (Interim Standard 41)

This is a signal protocol (similar to GSM) used by North, Central, and South American carriers and in some Pacific Rim countries.

Organizing Your Phone Book

Each name and phone number in your phone book is stored in a numbered memory location. The satellite phone has two types of memory—phone memory and SIM card memory.

Phone Memory

Personal Numbers 100 entries 155 entries

Fixed Dial Numbers

Phone Number Digits

Name Characters 16 16

Location Numbers 1 - 100 101 - 255

SIM card capacity varies depending upon the card issued by your service provider.

No entries 40 entries

32 20

SIM Card Memory

Your phone’s memory can seem overwhelming if you don’t have a strategy for organizing your Phone Book. Begin setting up your Phone Book by asking yourself three questions:

Which numbers do I call most?

Make a list of the numbers you call most frequently. You’ll probably want to store these numbers in the first nine memory locations of your Phone Book. You can then dial them with a single keystroke by using One-Touch dialing (Iridium satellite mode only).

68 Managing the Phone Book

When do I use these numbers?

Group the numbers on the list according to when you use them. Most people call a different set of numbers during the day than they do in the evening and on weekends. You can switch One-Touch dialing to your phone’s memory (locations 1–9), your SIM card’s memory (locations 101–109), or to your Fixed Dial List (locations 1–9). Store your evening and weekend numbers on one type of memory and your daytime numbers on another.

Which numbers do I need to keep secure?

Use your SIM card to store the numbers you need to keep secure, like the numbers of friends and family members. Because your SIM card is the size of a credit card, you can easily keep it securely in your wallet when you aren’t using it. If you wish, you can even require a PIN code every time your SIM card is inserted into code, see page 122.) Store your more public numbers in your phone’s memory, like business associates and travel agents.

Using Pauses in Numbers

When you call automated systems, a recorded message prompts you for numbers such as PIN numbers and account numbers. You can store these numbers in the same memory location as the automated system’s access number. Separate the numbers with “pauses”—special characters that tell your phone to wait three to six seconds before sending additional numbers—and store the string in the same way you would other numbers.

Tip:

You can store as many as 16 characters. A pause is equal to one character.

Enter Pauses in Numbers

the automated system.

The ﬁrst pause in the number waits until the call is answered. When the automated system answers, your phone waits three to six seconds and then automatically sends the next set of numbers, then the next, until all numbers are sent.

If you are in non-GSM cellular mode, the phone waits for you to send the next set of numbers. You will see

Using Phone Number Prefixes

You can save time when you dial by storing the preﬁxes that you often use. This is sometimes called “postscripting.” Your satellite phone allows you to change or add to Phone Book entries without overwriting them.

Store a prefix in your Phone Book just as you would any other number. See “Storing Names and Numbers” on page 70.
