Section 4 Safety and Warranty Information
Section 4A Important Safety Information In This Section l General Precautions (page 253) l Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone (page 254) l Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device (page 256) l Caring for the Battery (page 257) l Radiofrequency (RF) Energy (page 259) l Owner’s Record (page 262) l Phone Guide Proprietary Notice (page 262) This phone guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your phone.
General Precautions There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service. To maximize performance, do not touch the upper back portion of your phone where the internal antenna is located while using the phone. v Speak directly into the mouthpiece. v Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.
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.
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device Your phone has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When 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.
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Phone To further minimize interference: v v v Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval: > Settings > Display > Backlight. 1. Select 2. Select Main LCD, Key, or Sub LCD and press 3. Select the minimum time interval setting and press . . Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your hearing aid. Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.
v v 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. v Never dispose of the battery by incineration. v Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean. v Don’t attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery. v v v The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy Understanding How Your Phone Operates Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (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.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in 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. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings.
FCC Notice 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. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Owner’s Record The model number, regulatory number, and serial number are located on a nameplate inside the battery compartment. Record the serial number in the space provided below. This will be helpful if you need to contact us about your phone in the future. Model: Sprint Power VisionSM Phone M1 by Sanyo® Serial No.
