Important Safety Information 25
Storing
● Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for
long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage
rules:
▪ Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
▪ More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries
● Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations.
● Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
● Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as
you can be burned.
● For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries,
contact your nearest authorized service center.
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery
properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in
household or business trash may be prohibited.
Understanding How Your Phone
Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver.
When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the
system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital
mode.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP
standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard
for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF
signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and
physicians from universities, government health
agencies and industries developed this updated
standard after reviewing the available body of research.
In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In
August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the
guidelines published by the National Council of
Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
