SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Regulatory Statement (R&TTE / WLAN IEEE

802.11b)

European standards dictate maximum radiated transmit power of 100mW
EIRP and frequency range 2.400-2.4835GHz; In France, the equipment
must be restricted to the 2.4465-2.4835GHz frequency range and must
be restricted to indoor use.

CE Declaration of Conformity

For the following equipment: WiFi handset F1000

Is herewith confirmed to comply with the requirements set out in the
Council Directive on the Approximation of the Laws of the Member States
relating to Electromagnetic Compatibility (89/336/EEC), Low-voltage
Directive (73/23/EEC) and the Amendment Directive (93/68/EEC), the
procedures given in European Council Directive 99/5/EC and
89/3360EEC.

The equipment was passed. The test was performed according to the
following European standards:

 EN 300 328 V.1.4.1 (2003-04)

 EN 301 489-1 V.1.3.1 (2001-09) / EN 301 489-17 V.1.1.1 (2000-09)

 EN 50371: 2002

 EN 60950: 2000

Safety Precautions

FCC RF Exposure Compliance

This PCS phone has been tested and complies with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) RF exposure limits for the General
Population/Uncontrolled exposure environment. In addition, it complies
with the following Standards and Guidelines:

 FCC 96-326, Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of

Radio-Frequency Radiation

 FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 01-01 (2001) Supplement C, Evaluating

Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields

 ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with

Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic
Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz

 ANSI/IEEE C95.3-1992, IEEE Recommended Practice for the

Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields - RF
and Microwave

 Note: For body-worn operation, this phone has been tested and

meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory
that contains no metal and when the back of the phone faces
your body.

 Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF

exposure guidelines.

 The antenna used for this transmitter must not be co-located or

must not operate in conjunction with any other antenna.

Safety Precautions

3

Handling the Phone, Battery and Charger

DANGER

Only use the battery and charger specified for the
phone. Failure to do so can result in damage to the
phone, electric shock or fire.

CAUTION

Do not store or operate the phone or charger in hot,
damp or dusty areas, which can damage electrical and
mechanical components. Avoid prolonged exposure to
temperatures below 5°C or in excess of 35°C.

DANGER

Do not drop, shake or throw the phone or charger.
Rough handling can damage internal circuit boards and
the battery pack.

Do not use the phone in the vicinity of volatile gases.
Leave the area before using the phone. Failure to leave
the area can result in the risk of fire or an explosion.

Do not disassemble or modify the phone, charger or
battery. Incorrect modifications, reassembly or
tampering may result in malfunction or personal injury.

Safety Precautions

4

Handling the Phone

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:

 This device may not cause harmful interference

 This device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation

DANGER

This phone has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This phone
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this phone does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the phone off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

- Increase the separation between the phone and

receiver

- Connect the phone 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

Observe local regulations for specialised areas
(hospital, aircraft, etc.) when using the phone.

Safety Precautions

5

Do not use the phone while operating a vehicle.

CAUTION

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
UTStarcom, Inc. could void the user’s authority to
operate the phone.

Keep all storage media (magnetic cards, floppy disks,
credit cards, etc.) away from the phone. Close
encounters or contact can erase or damage the
storage media.

Keep all sharp metal objects (pins, nails, hairpins etc.)
away from the phone handset. The handset earpiece
contains a strong magnet that can attract and hold
metal objects. Remove any objects from the handset
earpiece before using, to avoid personal injury.

In case of emergency, key in the emergency number
(999 for example in UK), then press the Talk key and
let the operator know your specific location. Do not
hang up until you are told to do so.

Safety Precautions

6

Handling the Battery

DANGER

Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire. It may
explode. Check with local waste management codes for
disposal instructions.

Do not force the battery pack into the phone. Improper
installation can cause malfunctions or damage to the
battery pack. This may result in fire or personal injury.

Use caution in handling batteries in order not to short
the battery on conductive materials such as rings,
bracelets or keys. The battery and/or conductor may
overheat and cause burns.

If the battery becomes too hot while recharging, it
should be removed immediately from the charger.

When clothes or skin are exposed to battery leakage,
rinse with clean water at once to prevent skin irritation.

Do not use a cracked, leaking or odour-emitting battery
pack near an open flame or high temperatures.

CAUTION

If a fully discharged battery is stored for a long period of
time, it may not be possible to recharge the battery.

Observe local waste management codes for proper
battery disposal instructions.

Safety Precautions

7

Handling the Charger

DANGER

Only use a power source that provides the appropriate
voltage (AC100-240 V) for the charger. An unsuitable
power source can result in damage to the charger, fire
or electric shock.

Do not use the charger if the power supply cord or plug
is damaged or frayed (exposed or broken wires, etc).
This can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.

Do not short circuit the charger connector jack. This
may result in fire or electric shock.

Immediately unplug the charger from the wall outlet in
the event that liquid is spilled into the unit, to prevent
fire or electric shock.

CAUTION

Always unplug the charger from the wall outlet before
cleaning, to avoid the risk of electric shock.

Do not place heavy objects on the cord, to avoid
damage.

Always grip the power plug when removing the charger
from the wall outlet. Do not pull on the power supply
cord, to avoid damage and the risk of electric shock.
