DID YOU KNOW? You can also charge your smartphone by connecting it to your computer with the sync cable. You can do this with or without using the charger cable (see Connecting your Treo smartphone to your computer).

TIP 4 To confirm that your smartphone is charging, check the indicator light on your smartphone.
CHAPTER 1 SETTING UP • Charge your smartphone whenever you’re at your desk, or charge it overnight. The Li-Ion battery has a much longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is fully drained. • Your smartphone’s wireless features (phone, email, messaging, and web) and media features (camera, media players, eBooks, and games) consume more power than its organizer features.
• Turn down the screen brightness (see Adjusting the brightness). • Decrease the settings in Power Preferences and turn off Beam Receive (see Optimizing power settings). • Turn off the Bluetooth feature if you’re not using it. See Connecting to a Bluetooth hands-free device. ® 3 If you haven’t already activated your phone, follow your wireless service provider’s activation steps before continuing. 1 CHAPTER SETTING UP 4 Tap the onscreen Dial Pad to enter the number you want to call.

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.
FCC Radiofrequency Emission This smartphone meets the FCC Radiofrequency Emission Guidelines and is certified with the FCC as. FCC ID number: O8FJIMI. More information on the smartphone's SAR can be found from the following FCC Website: https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm.

Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material. Ionization only occurs with very high levels of electromagnetic energy such as X-rays and gamma rays.

While the FCC does not have the expertise to determine radiation exposure guidelines on its own, it does have the expertise and authority to recognize and adopt technically sound standards promulgated by other expert agencies and organizations, and has done so.

Because the antennas need to be high in the air, they are often located on towers, poles, water tanks, or rooftops. Typical heights for freestanding base station towers are 50-200 feet.

Cellular and PCS base stations in the United States are required to comply with limits for exposure recommended by expert organizations and endorsed by government agencies responsible for health and safety.

Commission safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the smartphone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source.
radiofrequency energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless smartphone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless smartphone every day, you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance.
The FDA's microwave oven standard is an emission standard (as opposed to an exposure standard) that allows specific levels of microwave leakage (measured at five centimeters from the oven surface). The standard also requires ovens to have two independent interlock systems that prevent the oven from generating microwaves the moment that the latch is released or the door of the oven is opened.
smartphone. FCC measures the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the smartphone, following a very rigorous testing protocol. As is true for nearly any scientific measurement, there is a possibility that the test measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF emitted by the smartphone.
Conditions that enhance ESD occurrences Conditions that can contribute to the buildup of static electricity in the environment include the following: • Low relative humidity. • Material type. (The type of material gathering the charge. For example, synthetics are more prone to static buildup than natural fibers like cotton.) • The rapidity with which you touch, connect, or disconnect electronic devices.
