Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set for en cryption is controlled by the system administrator.

Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:

1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.

2. Charge the battery.

3. Plug in your phone.

4. Schedule an hour or mor e for the encryption proce s s: you mu s t not

5. Touch the Home Key > Menu Key > System settings >

Security > Encrypt phone.

6. Read the information about encryption carefully.

The Encrypt phone button is dimmed if your batte ry's no t charged or your phone's not plugged in.

If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch the Back Key.

WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.

7. Touch Encrypt phone.

8. Enter your lock sc reen PIN or passwor d a nd touch Next.

9. Touch Encrypt phone again. The encryption process starts and displays its progress. Encryption can

take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times.

When encryption is complete, you're prompted to enter your PIN or password.

Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or password each time you power on your phone , to decrypt it.

General S t atement on Interferen ce

Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be main tained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast poc ket.

Hearing Aids

People with hearing aids or other cochlear i mplants may experie nce interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.

The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between them may reduce the interfe ren ce . You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

149

Medical Devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical devi c e .

Hospitals

Switch off your wireless device when reques ted to do so in hospi tals, clinics o r h ealth car e facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.

Aircraft

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff.

Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft. If your device offers a ‘flight mode’, this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.

150

Explosive Environments

Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres

In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.

Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include f uelli ng areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Blasting Caps and Areas

Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.

Interference in Cars

Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.

151

Radio Frequency (RF) Energy

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 mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The

152

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 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 requir ed to reach the network. In general, the cl oser you are to a wireless base station, 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 0.737 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.11 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements 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 http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on

FCC ID: Q78- V970T

For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory th at contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.0cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with

FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.0 cm from your body when the phone is switched on.

FCC Compliance

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly app roved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with th e 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 equipment 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 particu la r installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment 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 equipment and receiver.

153

—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.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones

In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telepho nes compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna, backlight, or other components. Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19- 2007). While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise and phones also vary in the amount of interference they 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 de vices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on th e user's hearing device an d h earing loss. If your he aring device happens t o be vulnerable to interference, you 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 needs.

154

This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. Howev er, there ma y be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or coch lear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your se rvice provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generat e les s interference to hear in g devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Sw itch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)

Your phone meets the M3/T3 level rating.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing hea lt h professional may he lp you find this rating. F or more information about FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
