Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential communication (e.g., medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network services or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider for details.
● Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for interference. ● Should turn OFF the mobile phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include: ● Fueling areas such as gas stations. ● Below deck on boats. ● Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
▪ Storage Temperature: ▪ 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) ● Do not charge your phone in Division 2 hazardous locations. ● Use only the charger provided with your phone: battery charger SCP-46ADT and USB data cable SCP-17SDC. ● The headset jack cover, charger/USB port cover, and battery door must be properly sealed in Division 2 hazardous locations.

From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > About phone > Compliance information. Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your invoice.
Waterproof Capability Your DuraForce XD is waterproof and meets IPX5, protection against sprayed water and IPX8 standards, submersible for up to 30 minutes at a depth not exceeding 1.8 meters (about 6 feet). Exposing your phone to water outside these limits or not following the precautions can result in water damage and will invalidate the Consumer Limited Warranty. To ensure that your phone maintains waterproof capability, the following precautions must be observed.
clean cloth to the open areas and crevices to remove the moisture left on the phone: microphones; speakers; all physical keys; headset jack cover; and charger/USB port cover. 4. Repeat the process until the phone is completely dry. Charging ● Dry your phone with a clean cloth before charging. ● Do not touch the charger, charging cable, or charger/USB port with wet hands. Doing so may cause electric shock, injury, or product failure.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.
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. Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid.
Caring for the Battery The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance. Protecting Your Battery ● Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories.
Charging ● Only use the battery with a qualified charger. Use of an unqualified battery charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you are unsure about whether a charger is qualified, contact customer support. ● In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C). ● Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
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.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy Understanding How Your Phone Operates Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. Your phone is designed to transmit just enough RF power to reach the network. The system handling your call controls the RF power level. Depending on network conditions, your phone may operate at an actual Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) level below the maximum value specified.
phone, including antennas. Body worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov. Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed into the head of a user of a wireless handset. The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process.
