Section 4 Safety and Warranty Information
4A. Important Safety Information ⽧ General Precautions (page 184) ⽧ Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device (page 185) ⽧ Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device (page 186) ⽧ Caring for the Battery (page 188) ⽧ Radio Frequency (RF) Energy (page 189) ⽧ Owner’s Record (page 191) ⽧ Open Source License (page 191) This User Guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your phone.
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for Emergency Calls 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. 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).
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives. 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.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (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 Switch” 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.
䢇 䢇 Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your hearing aid. Move the phone around to find the point with least interference. Caring for the Battery Protecting Your Battery The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance. 䢇 Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire, or exploding.
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.
TM The highest reported SAR values of the Optimus S are: Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22): Head: 1.04 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.48 W/kg PCS mode (Part 24): Head: 1.26 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.70 W/kg FCC Radio Frequency Emission This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: BEJLS670. More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.
