WARNING
When using your cellular telephone, please note that the following offenses are punishable by fine, imprisonment, or both:
Using obscene, indecent or profane language.
Using the phone to give off false
distress calls.
Wiretapping or otherwise intercepting a telephone call, unless that person has first obtained the consent of the parties participating in the call.
Making anonymous calls to annoy, harass or molest other people.
Charging to an account without authorization to avoid payment for service.
Refusing to yield line when informed that it is needed for an emergency call. (It is also unlawful to take over a line by stating falsely that it is needed for an emergency).
TIA Safety language
The following text is the general TIA Safety language document. As this mobile phone is equipped with an internal antenna some paragraphs in the below text may be irrelevant. For more information about the internal antenna see page 15.
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 hand-held wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety stan­dards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)* NCRP Report 86 (1986) 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
Nomal 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 unnec-
essarily 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 otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
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.

TIA Safety language
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.
Pace makers
The Health Industry Manufacturer’s 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.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the manu­facturer of your device to deter­mine if they are 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 OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF
TIA Safety language
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 or butane); 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.
7
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.

CTIA Driving safety tips
Your wireless telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice – almost anywhere, any­time. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wire­less phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving 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:
Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial.
If available, these features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
When available, use a hands free device.
If possible, add an additional layer of convenience and safety to your wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories avail­able today.
Position your wireless phone within easy reach.
Be able to access your wireless phone 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.
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, ice and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a “to do” list or flip­ping through your address book takes attention away from your pri­mary responsibility – driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.
Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
Use your wireless phone to call for help.
Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it’s a free call on your wireless phone.
CTIA Driving safety tips
Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies.
If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emer­gencies where lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.
Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance number when neces­sary.
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 number.
“The wireless industry reminds you
to use your phone safely when driv-
ing.”

Information on SAR
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 radiofre­quency (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 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 1.6 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 power output of the mobile phone.
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) to determine SAR compliance for the particular device at a range of potential operating positions. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.33 W/kg and when worn on the body in accordance with instructions in this user guide is 1.54 W/kg. (Body­worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon avail-
able accessories). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various posi­tions, they all meet the government requirement for RF 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 exposure 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 NRR-S4X.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.
NOTE:
* 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.

T9®text input feature
This is a feature enabling you to more easily use SMS messaging. Unlike the conventional way of en­tering/editing texts where you have to press one key up to several times to enter the desired letter, the T9 feature allows you to com­pose text messages with only one keypress per letter.
T9 Text Input compares your key­presses to words in its own linguis­tic database and displays the most commonly used matching word.
Example: Try to type »Call office« by pressing the following keys in order:
As you saw, the displayed word changed as you typed it.Therefore, always type to the end of the word before you start editing.
If the displayed word is the one you intended, just press to insert a space before the next word and continue entering the next word.
If the displayed word is not the one you intended, use the arrow keys and to scroll through alternative word choices. When you see the correct word , press to insert a space before the next word and continue entering the next word.
When you have completed your message, press »ACCEPT« to con­firm the last word and then »OK« to send the message.
The first letter will always be capi­talized, which is indicated by the
symbol in the upper right-hand corner of the display. The second letter will automatically be lower­case. Press if you want to enter an uppercase letter again.
List menu
If you want to activate the caps lock function, press twice. While the caps lock is active the symbol will be seen in the dis­play. To disable the caps lock func­tion, just press again. To enter digits into your message, press .
A grid of digits appears and you can press the digit you want to enter.
In T9 mode, periods, hyphens and apostrophes are automatically inserted in the highlighted word by pressing .
Additional punctuation and sym­bols can also be accessed by pressing .You will now have access to five different pages con­taining up to 9 symbols each.You can scroll through the pages by using the arrow keys. You select the intended symbol by pressing the relevant key, e.g. on page one 7 corresponds to “@“. Just press »EXIT« to return to your text mes­sage if you do not want to enter an additional punctuation.
List menu
Typing words not found in the T9 linguistic database
While in T9 mode, press the side key until the or
indicator appears in
the display.
Type the word.
Press the side key until the
indicator appears in the display again, and continue using T9 mode.
Adding words to the T9 linguistic database
Follow steps 1 to 2 as described above. When you have completed the word you want to store, press the side key to return to T9 mode. The word is automatically stored in the database.
Writing compound words
Long, compound words may not be in T9’s linguistic database, but often their individual parts are available. Enter the first part of the word, press »ACCEPT« and then enter the second part.
The memory of the database can be filled. When this happens, words which are never or rarely used will be deleted to make room for the words you want to store.
Different T9 languages
The T9 linguistic database is offered in a variety of languages and is independent of the language of your phone. Normally you will prob­ably set your phone to your local language, but from time to time it might be convenient to select other languages.
Selection of the T9 language is explained in the Setup menu under Message setup (p. 70).

Disabling the T9 feature
If your normal local language is not supported by the T9 database, you have to enter your text messages in the conventional way with multi­ple presses per letter, and if this is the case, it may be convenient to disable the T9 feature.

FDA Update on mobile phone safety
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile phones, including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following summarizes what is known – and what remains unknown – about whether these products can pose a hazard to health, and what can be done to minimize any potential risk. This information may be used to respond to questions.
Why the concern?
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (i.e., radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF), consid­ered non-significant, when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high levels of RF can produce
biological damage through heating effects (this is how your microwave oven is able to cook food). However, it is not known whether, to what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels of RF might cause adverse health effects as well.
Although some research has been done to address these ques­tions, no clear picture of the biolog­ical effects of this type of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available science does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe, or that they are unsafe.
However, the available scientific evidence does not demonstrate adverse health effects associated with the use of mobile phones.
What kinds of phones are in question?
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the user’s head
during normal telephone conversa­tion. These types of mobile phones are of concern because of the short distance between the phone’s antenna – the primary source of the RF – and the per­son’s head.
The exposure to RF from mobile phones in which the antenna is located at greater distances from the user (on the outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower than that from hand-held phones, because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapaidly with distance from the source.
The safety of so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house and which operate at far lower power levels and frequen­cies, has not been questioned.
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile phones might be harmful?
Briefly, there is not enough evi­dence to know for sure, either way; however, research efforts are on­going. The existing scientific evi­dence is conflicting and many of the studies that have been done to date have suffered from flaws in their research methods.
Animal experiments investigating the effects of RF exposures charac­teristic of mobile phones have yielded conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have sug­gested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of can­cer in laboratory animals.
In one study, mice genetically altered to be predisposed to devel­oping one type of cancer devel­oped more than twice as many such cancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared to controls. There is much uncertainty among scientists about whether results obtained from animal stud-
ies apply to the use of mobile phones.
First, it is uncertain how to apply the results obtained in rats and mice to humans.
Second, many of the studies that showed increased tumor develop­ment used animals that had already been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies exposed the animals to the RF vir­tually continuously – up to 22 hours per day.
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phone industry has supported research into the safety of mobile phones. This research has resulted in two findings in particular that merit additional study:
• In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an association between mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve
8786
sheath). No statistically significant association was found between mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma.
There was also no association between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types of gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that the average length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than three years.
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an association was found between mobile phone use and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithellioma­tous tumors. It is possible with multiple comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by chance.
Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often the mobile phone was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk actually decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use.

risk with increased expo­sure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy and repeatability of these results. 1)
• Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to assess the effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on genetic mate­rial. These included tests for several kinds of abnormalities, including mutations, chromosomal aberra­tions, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes in the genetic material of blood cells called lym­phocytes.
None of the tests showed any effect of the RF except for the micronucleous assay, which detects structural effects on the genetic material. The cells in this assay showed changes after expo­sure to simulated cell phone radia­tion, but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that expos-
ing the test cells to radiation for this long resulted in heating.
Since this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone could have caused the abnormali­ties to occur.The data already in the literature on the response of the micronucleus assay to RF are conflicting. Thus follow-up research is necessary. 2)
FDA is currently working with government, industry, and academ­ic groups to ensure the proper fol­low-up to these industry-funded research findings.
Collaboration with the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) in particular is expected to lead to FDA providing research recommendations and sci­entific oversight of new CTIA-fund­ed research based on such recom­mendations.
Two other studies of interest have been reported recently in the literature:
• Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals under laboratory con­ditions while they performed cogni­tive function tests.There were no changes in the subjects’ ability to recall words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were able to make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the only change noted among more than 20 variables compared. 3)
• In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there was no increased risk of brain tumors associated with mobile phone use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, how­ever, they were more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile phone was used. Because this occurred in only a small num­ber of cases, the increased likeli­hood was too small to be statisti­cally significant. 4)
In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to assure the public that there are, or are not, any low incident health problems associated with use of mobile phones.
FDA continues to work with all parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to assure that research is undertaken to pro­vide the necessary answers to the outstanding questions about the safety of mobile phones.
What is known about cases of human cancer that have been reported in users of hand-held mobile phones?
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diag­nosed with brain cancer. But it is important to understand that this type of cancer also occurs among people who have not used mobile phones.
In fact, brain cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases per 100,000 people
each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected each year among those 80 million people, whether or not they used their phones.
Thus it is not possible to tell whether any individual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or whether it would have happened anyway. A key question is whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greater among people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the population.
One way to answer that question is to compare the usage of mobile phones among people with brain cancer with the use of mobile phones among appropriately matched people without brain can­cer.This is called a case-control study.
The current case-control study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute, as well as the fol-
89
low-up research to be sponsored by industry, will begin to generate this type of information.
What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of mobile phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emit­ting consumer products such as mobile phones before marketing, as it does with new drugs or med­ical devices.
However, the agency has authori­ty to take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone industry to take a number of steps to assure public

FDA Update on mobile phone safety
safety. The agency has recom­mended that the industry:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by mobile phones;
• Design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and
• Cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible information on what is known about possible effects of mobile phone use on human health.
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at the federal level.These agencies are:
• National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Federal Communications Commission
• Occupational Health and Safety Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.
In the absence of conclusive information about any possible risk, what can concerned indi­viduals do?
If there is a risk from these prod­ucts—and at this point we do not know that there is—it is probably very small. But if people are con­cerned about avoiding even poten­tial risks, there are simple steps they can take to do so.
For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives.Those persons who spend long periods of time on their hand-held mobile phones could consider holding lengthy conversa­tions on conventional phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter conversations or for situa­tions when other types of phones are not available.
People who must conduct ex­tended conversations in their cars every day could switch to a type of mobile phone that places more dis­tance between their bodies and the source of the RF, since the expo-
sure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, they could switch to
• A mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the vehi­cle,
• A hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a different antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built into a separate package, or
• A headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the waist.
