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 charger, 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 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. • Avoid leaving this device or battery in your car in high temperatures. • Avoid dropping this device or battery. It can cause damage. • Contact your service provider or reseller to have them checked if this device or battery get wet or damaged from dropping or high temperature.

GPS & AGPS (for certain models only) • Your device may use Global Positioning System (GPS) signals for location-based applications. GPS uses satellites controlled by the U.S. government that are subject to changes implemented in accordance with the Department of Defense policy and the Federal Radio • • Navigation Plan. These changes may affect the performance of location technology on your device. Your device may also use Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider’s network and therefore airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your service plan. Contact your wireless service provider for details. Device enabled with GPS or AGPS technology transmit location-based information. This location-based information may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider, application providers, and other third parties providing service. Emergency calls • When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate the AGPS technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your approximate location. • AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area. Therefore: • Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability, and • Remain on the phone for as long as the emergency responder instructs you. • Get better performance by going outside and away from underground locations, covered vehicles, structures with metal or concrete roots, tall buildings, and foliage. • Indoor performance might improve if move closer to windows, but some windows sun shielding films can block satellite signals. • Get better performance by moving away from radios, entertainment equipment, and other electronic devices. Keep away from children • Keep your device & its accessories away from small children, a chocking hazard may exist for small, detachable parts. • • Improper use may cause load sounds, possibly causing hearing injury Improperly handled this device or batteries could overheat and cause a burn. Glass parts Some of parts of your device may be made of glass. This glass could break if the product is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using your device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service center. Seizures/Blackouts/Eyestrain A small percentage of people may be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when playing games or watching video. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts or have a family history of such occurrences, you should consult a physician before playing games or watching videos on your device. Discontinue use and consult a physician if any of the following symptoms occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. It is always a good idea to hold the screen away from your eyes, leave the light on in the room, take a not-less-than-15-minute break every hour, and stop use it if you are tired. Repetitive motion When you repetitively perform actions such as pressing keys or entering fingerwritten characters, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. If you continue to have discomfort during or after such use, stop use and see a physician. Use of connectors and ports Never force a connector into a port. Check for obstructions on the port. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

This device 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 devices 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 device 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 device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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. Important: Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: HLZTMDMA500. For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with device a minimum of 0 cm from the body when the device is switched on. 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 devices 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). The maximum SAR value is calculated at the highest output level in all frequency bands of the mobile device. For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP exposure guidelines and was included in the European Standard EN 62311 and EN 62209-2 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 ICNIRP exposure guidelines. If you do not use a bodyworn accessory and are not holding the device at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the device is switched on. During use, the actual SAR level is usually much lower than the maximum value, because the mobile device 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 base station, the lower the transmission output of your mobile device.
