Welcome to the next generation of wireless. Your NEC 232 phone brings together global GSM mobile connectivity with PC accessibility. From browsing the web, to sharing files during synchronization with your desktop or laptop, to taking pictures; the tools you need to help maximize your time and simplify your life are in the palm of your hand.

All the features described in this user guide are supported by your phone. However, for all these features to work, you must have a SIM card (main piece that the whole phone functions on; included in the box supplied by your Service Provider) that also supports these features. Even if you have a fully featured SIM card, any feature will not work if it is not supported by the Network transmitting your call. This last point is especially important when you are roaming among networks.

Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone contains a radio transmitter and receiver. Your NEC phone 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. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as 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 output.
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 on position and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is (TBD) W/kg, and when worn on the body, is (TBD) W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
Body-worn Operation
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fcid after search on FCC ID A98-KMP6J1N1.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a NEC accessory designated for this product or when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
*In the United States, the SAR limit for
wireless mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. SAR values may vary depending upon national reporting requirements and the network band.
Aircraft Safety
The use of wireless phones in aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may be illegal. Any use of a wireless phone on board an aircraft must be in accordance with applicable regulations. Follow all flight crew instructions. When instructed to turn Off your wireless telephone, do so.
Road Safety
Check the laws and regulations concerning the use of wireless telephones and their accessories in the areas where you drive and always obey them. If you find it necessary to use your cellular telephone behind the wheel of a car, please:
l
Give full attention to driving and exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. (See Flag.)
l
Observe all the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation.
l
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions so require.
l
Turn Off your wireless phone at a refueling point, such as a gas station, even if you are not refueling your own car.
l
Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as a wireless phone.
O
Use hands-free operation, if available.
12
Electromagnetic Interference
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals; however, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends a minimum separation of six inches (or 15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research and recommendations by Wireless Technology Research. Persons with cardiac pacemakers:
l
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned On.
l
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
l
Should place the phone to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
l
If you have any reason to suspect RF interference, turn Off your phone immediately and remove the battery.
Whether the phone vibrates, plays a ring tune, or the volume buttons increase/decrease the ring sound, a received call to a wireless phone may interfere with a cardiac pacemaker.
Hearing Aids
Digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your wireless service provider.
Other Medical Devices and Medical Facilities
Operation of wireless phones could interfere with medical devices or implanted equipment which are inadequately shielded from external RF energy. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if such devices are adequately shielded.
Turn Off your phone in health care facilities, if 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
Electronic vehicle systems, such as anti-lock brakes, speed control and fuel injection systems are not normally affected by radio transmissions. RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. The manufacturer of such equipment can advise if it is adequately shielded from radio transmissions. If you suspect vehicle problems caused by radio transmissions, consult vehicle manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle and do not turn On your phone until it has been checked by qualified approved installers. You should consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn Off your phone in any facility where posted notices require you to do so.
13
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn Off your phone when in a blasting area or areas posted: “Turn Off Two-Way Radio.” Obey all signs and instructions. (See Flag.)
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn Off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Do not remove, install, or change batteries in such areas. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. (See Flag.)
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such a propane or butane); areas where oxygen is used; 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 turned Off your vehicle engine.
Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is improperly installed in the vehicle and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Battery Care and Disposal
Do not leave the phone or the battery in places where the temperature could exceed 140 °F, i.e., on a car dashboard, on a window sill, in direct sunlight, etc.
Turn Off the phone. The wireless
O
phone can still be a hazard in these areas even when set in vibrate mode.
Do not put your phone’s battery in your mouth as battery electrolytes may be toxic, if swallowed.
Keep the battery away from children. It is not a toy and it could be a choking hazard.
Your phone battery is a sealed unit with no serviceable parts inside; do not attempt to open the battery covering.
Use only a battery approved by NEC for the 232 wireless phone.
Using any battery pack or AC adapter not specified by NEC for use with the 232 may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty and approval given to the wireless phone. Do not connect more than one charger at any time.
To ensure the maximum life from your battery, allow the battery to fully discharge at least once a week. To fully discharge the battery, leave the phone turned on until the message “RECHARGE BATTERY” is displayed and the phone shuts itself Off. If left unused, a fully charged battery discharges in approximately one month. Store batteries uncharged in a cool, dark, and dry place.
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Through the AT&T Wireless Reuse and Recycle program, consumers are invited to bring unwanted phones, accessories, and batteries (regardless of the manufacture or carrier) to an AT&T Wireless retail store for recycling. Use the website link to find an AT&T Wireless store nearest you:” http://www.attwireless.com/general/storelocator “.
