Battery information
This product uses a Lithium Polymer battery. Do not use it in a
humid, wet and/or corrosive environment. Do not put, store or
leave your product in or near a heat source, in a high temperature location, in strong direct sunlight, in a microwave oven or
in a pressurized container, and do not expose it to temperatures over 60 °C (140 °F). Failure to follow these guidelines may
cause the battery to leak acid, become hot, explode or ignite
and cause injury and/or damage. Do not pierce, open or disassemble the battery. If the battery leaks and you come into contact with the leaked fluids, rinse thoroughly with water and
seek medical attention immediately. For safety reasons, and to
prolong the lifetime of the battery, charging will not occur at
low (below 0 °C/32 °F) or high (over 40 °C/104 °F) temperatures.
The full performance of a new battery is achieved only after
two or three complete charge and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it
will eventually wear out. When the talk and standby times are
noticeably shorter than normal, buy a new battery. Use only
Acer approved batteries, and recharge your battery only with
Acer approved chargers designated for this device.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device
when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to the AC adapter, since overcharging may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will lose its
charge over time. If the battery is completely discharged, it
Warnings and precautions
83
may take a few minutes before the charging indicator appears
on the display or before any calls can be made.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any
charger or battery that is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can
occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or pen causes
direct connection of the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals
of the battery. (These look like metal strips on the battery.)
This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may
damage the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car
in summer or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and
lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the battery between
15 °C and 25 °C (59 °F and 77 °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.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire as they may explode. Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of batteries
according to local regulations. Please recycle when possible.
Do not dispose as household waste.
Replacing the battery pack
Your smartphone uses lithium batteries. Replace the battery
with the same type as that which came bundled with your
product. Use of another battery may present a risk of fire or
explosion.
CAUTION! Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect
type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Certificate Information (SAR)
This device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the
limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields by way of health protection.
The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These recommendations have
been developed and checked by independent scientific organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientific
studies. To guarantee the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health, the limits include a significant safety buffer.
Before radio devices can be put in circulation, their agreement
with European laws or limits must be confirmed; only then
may the CE symbol be applied.
The unit of measurement for the European Council's recommended limit for mobile telephones is the "Specific Absorption
Rate" (SAR). This SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg, averaged over 10 g of
body tissue. It meets the requirements of the International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and
was included in the European Standard EN 50360 for mobile
radio devices. The SAR regulation for mobile telephones is in
line with European Standard EN 62209-1.The maximum SAR
value is calculated at the highest output level in all frequency
bands of the mobile telephone. During use, the actual SAR
level is usually much lower than the maximum value, because
the mobile telephone works in different output levels. It only
transmits with as much output as is required to reach the network. In general the following applies: The closer you are to a
94

RF exposure information (SAR)
This mobile phone meets the government's requirements for
exposure to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set
by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer
you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the
FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.713 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.23 W/kg.
Important: Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirements.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
Safety regulations

compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and
can be found under the Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
HLZSHS200EU.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and
meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with accessories
that contain no metal and that position the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If
you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the
phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm
from your body when the phone is switched on.
Using your phone with a hearing aid
device
Your S200 device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid
Compatibility (HAC) requirements. 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. The wireless telephone
industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile
phones, to assist hearing-device users in finding phones that
may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones
have been rated. Phones that have been rated have a label on
the box. Your S200 has been tested for hearing aid device
compatibility and has an M4 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary, depending
on the level of immunity of your hearing device and the
degree of your hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to
be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a

rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to generate less interference with hearing devices
than phones that are not labeled. 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: Not all hearing devices contain telecoils.
The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you
are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone.
Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to those of
phones. Ask your hearing health-care professional for the
rating of your hearing aid.
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this
type of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you find results for your
hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less
likely you are to experience interference noise from wireless
devices.
For additional information about the FCC's actions with regard
to hearing aid compatible wireless devices and other steps the
FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have
access to telecommunications services, please go to
