FCC & Industry Canada Regulatory Compliance
The NeoPoint phone is approved for use in CDMA networks. This device complies with Part 15
of the FCC Regulations. Operation of this phone is subject to the condition that it does not cause
harmful interference.
Your wireless hand-held 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 hand-held wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies: American National Standard
Institute (ANSI), National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), and
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNRP). Those standards
were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. The
design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines and applicable standards.
NOTE: You should only use the manufacturer specified hands-free kit with
the NeoPoint phone away from your body (not in your pocket); or use it with
the handset in the manufacturer specified leather case. For body worn
operations, third party hands-free accessories that have not been SAR tested
may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should not be used.
Important: Read “Safety” on page xvii prior to using your NeoPoint phone.

Preface
Dual-Mode
The NeoPoint 1600 is a cellular band, dual-mode wireless phone, compatible with
both digital (CDMA) and analog (AMPS) networks operating at 800MHz.
The term dual-mode represents the ability of your NeoPoint 1600 to transmit and
receive signals from both analog and digital cellular phone systems.
The benefits of having a dual-mode phone include being able to use your phone when
traveling in an area where CDMA digital service is not yet activated. Your NeoPoint
1600 phone will automatically find analog service, allowing your call to be
processed.
About CDMA...
Code division multiple access (CDMA) is the type of digital wireless transmission
that the NeoPoint phone employs. The following sections provide information on
CDMA performance and advantages. These sections are designed to help you
understand how to better use your NeoPoint phone.
Signal Strength and Phone Performance
Like other portable wireless phones, signal strength is affected by the surrounding
environment of the user. Buildings, parking garages, elevators, and basements are
some examples of structures that reduce signal strength. Problems initializing a call,
muting of the audio during a call, or a call drop are signs of low signal strength.
Moving toward a window (if indoors) or open space (if outside) and extending the
antenna fully are ways to optimize signal strength. Traveling in a vehicle through
varying terrain, tunnels, or near tall buildings may also cause rapid changes in signal
strength.
NeoPoint 1600 User’s Guide xv
CDMA Advantages
Security Each conversation is digitized and encoded with a separate
assigned key to help prevent eavesdropping.
Voice Clarity Uses digital voice coding techniques to enhance quality and
reduce background noise.
Lower Average Using sophisticated power control, the phone transmits the
Transmit Power minimum power required to communicate with the base
station and actually idles in between spoken words. This
results in much lower average power radiating from the
antenna than other technologies.
Increased System Provides 3-10 times the capacity compared to other
Capacity technologies. This results in fewer dropped calls and system
busy signals for the user.
Digital Services Allows user new services including caller ID, data and fax,
text messaging, and simultaneous voice and data.
xvi NeoPoint 1600 User’s Guide
Safety
Preface
Important!
Read these safety guidelines prior to using your phone. Failure to follow
these rules and guidelines may be dangerous and illegal.
Road Safety Information
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a vehicle. Talking on the
phone while driving is dangerous and illegal in some places. If using a
hand-held phone, park the vehicle before conversing. Remember - road
safety always comes first!
If you must drive and use your digital wireless phone, purchase and install
the Hands-Free Kit accessory. For more information on the Hands-Free
Kit, refer to “Hands-Free Kit” on page 86.
Aircraft Safety Information
Power down your phone prior to boarding an aircraft. Sending and
receiving calls on your phone on an aircraft is prohibited by U.S. law.
Using a wireless telephone in an aircraft may interfere with aircraft radio
communication or navigation equipment, and disrupt the wireless
telephone network. When boarding an aircraft, use the “Power Off” setting
in Quick Mode and press Select (Soft Key 1) to power down your
NeoPoint phone.
Hospital & Medical Safety Information
Power down your phone prior to entering hospitals, health care facilities, or
when near medical equipment. Operating any radio transmitting
equipment, including digital wireless phones, may interfere with RFsensitive medical devices. Follow all posted regulations while in hospitals
and health care facilities regarding the use of your phone.
NeoPoint 1600 User’s Guide xvii
Blasting and Refueling Safety Information
Do not use your phone near a blasting site. Power down your phone when
in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Radio transmissions in
such areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or
even death. Obey all posted signs and instructions regarding the use of
wireless phone usage.
Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel
storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress.
Interference Safety Information
All mobile phones are subject to radio frequency interference that may
affect the performance of your phone. Your digital wireless phone is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. The design of your phone complies
with the FCC guidelines and applicable standards.
Never rely solely on your phone for essential communications (e.g.,
medical emergencies). You must be in a service area with adequate signal
strength to use the phone. Emergency calls may not be possible on all
wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone
features are in use. Check with your local service provider(s).
Service Safety Information
Only qualified service personnel are authorized to repair your digital
wireless phone and equipment. Use only approved accessories and
batteries. Refer to "Chapter 5: NeoPoint Care and Troubleshooting" on
page 77 for more information.
