Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extremes of temperature.

Poor contact between the battery and charger.

Check all connectors to ensure that all connections have been properly made.

Shortened standby time

The standby time is related to your service provider syste configuration. The same phone used

Use a new battery.

If you are not able to connect to the network, the phone will continue to send out signals as it attempts to locate a base station. Doing so consumes battery power and will consequently shorten standby time.

Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporarily turn off your phone.

FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This phone is designed and manufact ured not to exc eed the emission limit s f or exposure t o radio frequency (RF) en ergy set by th e F ederal Communications Commi ssion of the Unit ed S tates.

During SAR testing, t hi s device was set to transmit at its highest certi fied power level in all t ested frequency bands, and placed in p ositions th at simulate RF exposure in usage again st t he head with no separati on, and near th e body with t he separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the act ual SAR level of the d evice while operating can be well bel ow the maximum value. This is because the phon e i s designed t o operate at mult i pl e power levels s o as to use only the power required to reach the net work. In general , the closer you are to a wireless base statio n ante nna, t he lower the powe r outp ut.

The exposu re standard for wireless d evi ces employi ng a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.

The SAR limit set by the FC C is 1.6W/kg. This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure

limit s i n A NSI/IEEE C95.1 -1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement method s and procedur es specified in IEEE1528.

The FCC has granted an Equi pment Aut horizati on f or this m odel p hone 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: SRQ-Z828.

For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 1.04

W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.19 W/kg. While there may be diff erences bet ween the SAR levels of v arious phones and at

various p ositions, they all meet the governm ent r equirement s. SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a sep aration distance of 10

mm between t he unit and th e human body. Carry thi s device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-w orn operation, choose the bel t clips or hol sters, which do not contain metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body.

RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains metal, was not tested and certified, and use such b ody-worn acc essory, shoul d be avoided.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile Phones

In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually c ause interf erence with h earing aids or c ochlear im plants, digit al wireles s phones som etimes do because of electr omagnetic energy emitted by th e phone's antenna, b acklight , or oth er com ponents. Y our ph one is c ompliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19- 2011). While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearin g aids and cochl ear im pl ants), u s ers may det ec t a buzzing, humm i ng, or whining noise. Som e heari ng devices are more immune than oth ers to this interf erence noise and phon es also vary in the am ount of int erference the y generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phon es have been rated. Phones that are rated have the r ating on their box or a label located on the box. T he ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing los s. If your h earing d evic e happens t o be vulner able t o interfer ence, y ou may not be able to use a rated phone successfully.

Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal n eeds.

This phone has b een tested and rated for us e with hearing aids for s ome of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there m ay be some newer wireless technologi es us ed in thi s ph on e that h ave not been t est ed yet for us e with h earin g aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different l ocati ons, usin g your h earing aid or c ochlear i mplant , to d etermi ne if you hear any interfering noi se. Consult your servic e provider or the manuf act urer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exc hange polic ies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate l ess interference t o hearing d evices than phones th at are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings: P hones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requir em ent s and are likely t o b e

more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”)

than unrat ed ph ones. T4 is t he bett er/ high er of th e tw o ratings. ( Note t hat not all hearing devices have telecoils in t hem.)

Your phone meets the M3/ T3 level rating. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or heari ng

health professional may help you find this rating. For more information about FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility, please go to

Radio Frequency Interference

General Statement on Interf erence

Care must be taken wh en using the phone in close proximity to per sonal medic al devices, such as pacemakers and h eari ng aids.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufact urers recommend that a m i ni mum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and a pac emaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve t hi s, use the phon e on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not c arry it in a breast p ocket.

Hearing Aids

People with hearing aids or othe r cochlear im plants m ay exp erienc e interfering noises when using wir el ess devic es or w hen one is nearby.

The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source. Increasing the separati on between them may reduce the interf erence. You m ay also consult your hearing aid manuf act urer to disc uss alternatives.

Medical Devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your phone m ay i nterfere with the operation of y our medical device.

Hospitals

Turn off your wireless device when r equested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.
