RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This model phone meets the government‟s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
This 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.

The exposure standard for wireless devices 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 accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest

more of the following measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible

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 poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you
are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.

The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when
tested for use at the ear is 0.591 W/g for GSM850 / 0.89 W/g for PCS1900 /

0.458 W/g for WCDMA Band V / 1.24 W/g for WCDMA Band II and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.4 W/g for GSM850 /

0.975 W/g for PCS1900/ 0.638 W/g for WCDMA Band V / 0.707 W/g for
WCDMA Band II (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.

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 of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: JYCP9020.

This device is compliance with SAR for general population /uncontrolled
exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999 and had been tested in

when the phone is switched on.

accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in
OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C.

For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal
and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the
phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body

SIM card and battery

About your SIM card

When you subscribe to your network operator, you receive a SIM
(Subscriber Identity Module) card containing your registration information,
PIN code, etc.
Like a credit card, it should be kept secure and handled carefully. Do not
bend, scratch or expose it to moisture. Avoid static electricity.

To avoid corrupting your SIM card‟s memory, always switch off your phone

before removing or inserting your SIM card.

About your battery

Your phone uses a Li-Ion battery. Make sure to use an authorized battery
and charger only. For more details, please inquire at your nearest dealer.
NOTE: Your phone is powered by a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. Unlike other
forms of battery technology, you can recharge your battery while some
charge remains without reducing your phone‟s autonomy due to the “battery
memory effect” inherent in those technologies.

3. Insert the SIM card into the slot. The gold contacts of
the SIM card should go against the metal contacts of
the phone. Put the contacts of the battery into the hole
located at the bottom of the unit insert and Tap the
upper side of the battery until you hear the “click”.

4. To remove the battery push the bottom of the battery
to upwards (1) and remove (2) the battery. Push the
SIM card in the direction of the arrow as shown.

To charge your battery

1. To charge, open the protective cover on the top

right side and connect the charger adapter.
Make sure you align the connector as the image.
If not, it will damage the charging connector on
the phone and will not charge.

Installing/removing SIM card and battery

1. Remove the battery cover from the unit.

2. To fit the battery cover, put it on the
guide rail and push up.
