Network services and costs
Your device is approved for use on the WCDMA 900/2100 MHz,
GSM 900/1800/1900 MHz networks. To use the device, you need a
subscription with a service provider.
Using network services may result in trafc costs. Some product features
require support from the network, and you may need to subscribe to
them.
Operating environment
Follow the rules and laws that apply wherever you are, and always turn
off the unit whenever its use is prohibited or can cause interference or
hazards. Only use the unit in its normal user position.
This unit complies with guidelines for radiation when it is used either
in a normal position against your ear, or when it is at least 1.5 cm from
your body. If the unit is carried close to your body in a case, belt holder
or other holder, these holders should not contain any metal, and the

Consult a doctor or the manufacturer of the equipment to determine if it
has adequate protection against external radio signals, or if you have any
questions. If notices have been put up at health care facilities instructing
you to turn off the unit while you are there, you should comply. Hospitals
and other health care facilities sometimes use equipment that can be
sensitive to external radio signals.
16
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 15 cm from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned on.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn
the phone off immediately.
Areas with explosion risk
Always turn off the unit when you are in an area where there is a risk of
explosion. Follow all signs and instructions. There is a risk of explosion in
places that include areas where you are normally requested to turn off
your car engine. In these areas, sparks can cause explosion or re which
can lead to personal injury or even death.
Turn off the unit at lling stations, and any other place that has fuel
pumps and auto repair facilities.
Follow the restrictions that apply to the use of radio equipment near
places where fuel is stored and sold, chemical factories and places
where blasting is in progress.
Areas with risk for explosion are often – but not always – clearly marked.
This also applies to below decks on ships; the transport or storage of
chemicals; vehicles that use liquid fuel (such as propane or butane);
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust
or metal powder.
Li-ion battery
This product contains a Li-ion battery. There is a risk of re and burns if
the battery pack is handled improperly.
WARNING
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. To reduce
risk of re or burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short
external contacts, expose to temperature above 60° C
(140° F), or dispose of in re or water. Recycle or dispose of
used batteries according to the local regulations or reference
guide supplied with your product.
17
Protect your hearing
WARNING
Excessive exposure to loud sounds can cause hearing
damage. Exposure to loud sounds while driving may distract
your attention and cause an accident. Listen to a headset at
a moderate level, and do not hold the device near your ear
when the loudspeaker is in use.
Emergency calls
Important!
Mobile phones use radio signals, the mobile phone network, the
terrestrial network and user-programmed functions. This means that
connection cannot be guaranteed in all circumstances. Therefore,
never rely only on a mobile phone for very important calls such as
medical emergencies.
Vehicles
Radio signals can affect electronic systems in motor vehicles (for
example, electronic fuel injection, ABS brakes, automatic cruise control,
air bag systems) that have been incorrectly installed or are inadequately
protected. Contact the manufacturer or its representative for more
information about your vehicle or any additional equipment.
Do not keep or transport ammable liquids, gases or explosives together
with the unit or its accessories. For vehicles equipped with air bags:
Remember that air bags ll with air with considerable force.
Do not place objects, including xed or portable radio equipment in the
area above the airbag or the area where it might expand. Serious injuries
may be caused if the mobile phone equipment is incorrectly installed
and the airbag lls with air.
It is prohibited to use the unit in ight. Turn off the unit before you board
a plane. Using wireless telecom units inside a plane can pose risks to air
safety and interfere with telecommunications. It may also be illegal.
11.CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your unit is a technically advanced product and should be treated with
the greatest care. Negligence may void the warranty.
• Protect the unit from moisture. Rain/snowfall, moisture and all types of liquid
can contain substances that corrode the electronic circuits. If the unit gets
wet, you should remove the battery and allow the unit to dry completely before
you replace it.
18
• Do not use or keep the unit in dusty, dirty environments. The unit’s
moving parts and electronic components can be damaged.
• Do not keep the unit in warm places. High temperatures can reduce
the lifespan for electronic equipment, damage batteries and distort or
melt certain plastics.
• Do not keep the unit in cold places. When the unit warms up to normal
temperature, condensation can form on the inside which can damage
the electronic circuits.
• Do not try to open the unit in any other way than that which is
indicated here.
• Do not drop the unit. Do not knock or shake it either. If it is treated
roughly the circuits and precision mechanics can be broken.
• Do not use strong chemicals to clean the unit.
The advice above applies to the unit, battery, mains adapter and other
accessories. If the phone is not working as it should, please contact the

15. FCC
FCC/Industry Canada notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada
license-exempt RSS standard(s). 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.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules/
Canadian ICES-003. 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. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The FCC or Industry Canada can require you to stop using your unit if
such interference cannot be eliminated.
Doro has not approved any changes or modications to this device by
the user. Any changes or modications could void he user’s authority to
operate the equipment.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This model 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 and by
the Canadian regulatory authorities.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6W/
kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC and Industry Canada with the phone transmitting at
its highest certied power level in all tested frequency bands. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certied 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 0.21 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.27 W/kg (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
requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on le 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: WS5DORO631
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal
and the positions the handset a minimum of 5/8 inch (1.5 cm) from the
body. Use of other enhancements 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 5/8
inch (1.5 cm) from your body when the phone is switched on.
23
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band.
