Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. Wireless phones can cause interference or danger
to an aircraft. In an aircraft, the phone can be used in flight mode.
Do not expose the battery to high temperatures (in excess of 55°C).
Adhere to road safety laws. Do not hold/use a phone while you are driving; find a safe place to stop
first. Use hands-free microphone while you are driving.
Avoid using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and
hearing aids.

Ensure that only qualied persons install or repair your phone.
The Sonim XP5 is water-proof and can be submerged to 2 meters for 1 hour.
• The rubber cover of the charging connector and audio connector must be properly connected
to avoid deposits of water drops on these connectors when the phone is immersed in water.
• Water droplets may condense under the display cover if the phone is immersed in water with
signicant drop in temperature. This does not indicate water leakage. The droplets disappear
at room temperature.
The Sonim XP5 is dust-resistant, rugged and shock-resistant. However, it is not dust-proof or
unbreakable if subjected to overwhelming impact. For best results and long product life, one should
protect the Sonim XP5 from salt water, dust and strong impacts.
Safety Guidelines
![](/img.php?id=3073315&img=bga.png)

SAR Information
The Sonim XP5 has been certified in compliance with
the Government’s requirements for exposure to Radio
Waves.
When communicating over the wireless network, the
mobile phone emits via the radio frequency waves and
low levels of radio energy. The Specic Absorption Rate,
or SAR, is the amount of RF energy absorbed by the
body while using the phone and is expressed in watts/
kilogram (W/kg).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed
by scientic organizations, for example, ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc.). These guidelines establish
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general
population.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods
with the phone transmitting at its highest certied power
level in all used frequency bands.
SAR Data Information for residents in the United
States and Canada
The limit recommended by ICNIRP is 1.6 W/kg averaged
over one (1) gram of tissue.
The highest SAR value for the Sonim XP5700 phones
when tested by Sonim for use:
• By the ear is 1.32 W/1kg.
• Worn on the body is 1.06 W/1kg provided that the
phone is used with a non-metallic accessory with
the handset at least 1 cm from the body, or with the
original Sonim accessory intended for this phone
and worn on the body.
HAC Rating
The FCC has created a rating system for cellular phones
regarding their HAC-related performance. This rating
helps consumers with hearing disabilities to nd phones
that work well with their hearing aid devices. The HAC
rating and measurement procedure are described
in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
C63.19:2011.
ANSI C63.19 contains two rating standards: an “M” rating
from 1 to 4 for hearing aids operating in microphone
mode, and a “T” rating from 1 to 4 for hearing aids
operating in telecoil mode.
M-Rating stands for Microphone rating and indicates
the amount of reduction of RF interference between the
telephone and the hearing aid in acoustic coupling mode
(also called microphone mode).
Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and
generate less interference to hearing devices set in
microphone mode. T-Rating stands for Telecoil rating and
represents inductive coupling with hearing aids that are
operating in telecoil mode. A telecoil is a small piece of
tightly wrapped wire, built into some hearing aids. While
the microphone of a hearing aid picks up all sounds, the
telecoil only picks up an electromagnetic signal from the
telephone. Thus, users of telecoil-equipped hearing aids
are able to communicate over the telephone without the
amplication of unwanted background noise.
Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
generate less interference to hearing devices set in
telecoil mode.
A combination of M-rating and T-rating denes the
nal HAC rating and is a deciding factor in selecting
Safety Guidelines
![](/img.php?id=3073315&img=bgb.png)
11
Safety Guidelines
cellular phones for people with hearing problems. A HAC
compliant phone could be rated:
• M3/T3
• M3/T4
• M4/T3
• M4/T4
These ratings assist hearing device users to nd
phones that are compatible with their hearing devices.
Ratings are shown on the phone’s box or label. The
ratings are not guaranteed for suitability. The results
vary depending on the individual’s hearing loss and the
immunity characteristics of the used hearing device, i.e.
its resistance to interference. The best way to evaluate
the suitability of the phone is to try it with the intended
hearing aid device.
Sonim XP5 has been tested for hearing aid device
compatibility and complies with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) requirements. Sonim
XP5 is rated M4/T4.
Avoid High Temperatures
Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. For the best results,
try to keep the device between -20°C and +55°C (-4°F
and 131°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may
not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully
charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in
temperatures well below freezing.
Battery Disposal
Do not dispose of batteries in a re as they may explode.
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of
batteries according to local regulations and recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste. Do not
dismantle, open or shred cells or batteries. In the event of
a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact
with the skin or eyes. In the event of leak or a hazard
seek medical help immediately.
Personal Medical Devices
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac
pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please
avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, for
example in your breast pocket. When using the mobile
phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between
the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of
interference is limited. If you suspect that interference
is taking place, immediately turn off your mobile phone.
Contact your cardiologist for more information. For
other medical devices, consult your physician and the
manufacturer of the device. Comply with instructions to
switch off the device or deactivate the RF transmitter
when required, especially when posted in hospitals
and airplanes. Equipment used in these places may
be sensitive to radio waves emitted from the device
and adversely affect their operation. Also, observe
restrictions at gas stations or other areas with ammable
atmospheres or when close to electro-explosive devices.

Safety Guidelines
Child Safety
Do not allow children to play with your mobile phone or
its accessories. Keep it out of their reach. They could
hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage
the mobile phone or accessories. Your mobile phone and
its accessories may contain small parts, which could be
detached and create a choking hazard.
Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore
you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for
essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all
cellular networks, or when certain network services and/
or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your
local service provider.
