ENERGY STAR® is a government program that offers businesses and consumers energy-efficient solutions, making it easy to save money while protecting the environment for future generations. Please reference ENERGY STAR® related information from www.energystar.gov. As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, Getac Technology Corporation has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. An ENERGY STAR® qualified computer uses 70 % less electricity than computers without enabled power management features. Earning the ENERGY STAR®  When every home office is powered by equipment that has earned the ENERGY STAR®, the change will keep over 289 billion pounds of greenhouse gases out of the air.  If left inactive, ENERGY STAR® qualified computers enter a low-power mode and may use 15 watts or less. New chip technologies make power management features more reliable, dependable, and user-friendly than even just a few years ago.  Spending a large portion of time in low-power mode not only saves energy, but helps equipment run cooler and last longer.  Businesses that use ENERGY STAR® enabled office equipment may realize additional savings on air conditioning and maintenance.
 Over its lifetime, ENERGY STAR® qualified equipment in a single home office (e.g., computer, monitor, printer, and fax) can save enough electricity to light an entire home for more than 4 years.  Power management (‚sleep settings‛) on computers and monitors can result in much savings annually. Remember, saving energy prevents pollution Because most computer equipment is left on 24 hours a day, power management features are important for saving energy and are an easy way to reduce air pollution. By using less energy, these products help lower consumers’ utility bills, and prevent greenhouse gas emissions.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-1 Chapter 8 Troubleshooting and Maintenance This chapter gives solutions to common device problems you may encounter. It also provides guidelines on taking care of your device. Resetting Your Device Occasionally, you may need to reset your device. For example, you should reset your device when it stops responding; or appears to be ‚frozen‛ or ‚locked up.‛ To reset your device: 1. Remove the battery cover. 2. Firmly press the reset switch with a small rod. Your device should restart.
8-2 Troubleshooting and Maintenance 3. Replace the battery cover. Restoring Factory Default State In some cases, you may need to restore your device to the factory default state by clearing the memory from your device. For example, you should clear the memory:  When your device does not respond after being restarted.  When you forget your password. Clearing the memory means all data you have entered in your device’s memory, including all files, system settings and additional programs you have installed, will be erased. (Programs installed to ROM at the factory are not affected.) CAUTION: To ensure the integrity of your data should it be necessary to clear the memory, you are advised to regularly back up your data. Follow this procedure to clear the memory from your device: 1. Remove the battery and then replace it. 2. Press and hold the Send and End buttons, and then press the power button. Release all three buttons when the device vibrates. 3. Your device turns on. The words ‚Clean Boot‛ appears on the upper left corner of the screen. 4. Tap the screen to set up your Windows® Phone.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-3 Troubleshooting NOTE: If you encounter a problem you cannot solve, contact your dealer for assistance. Problem Solution Power does not switch on when using battery power. The remaining battery power may be too low to run your device. Charge the battery. Screen responds slowly. Make sure that your device is not running out of battery power. If the problem still persists, restart your device. Screen freezes. Restart your device. Cannot establish a connection with a computer via USB. Make sure that your device and your computer are both switched on before trying to establish a connection. Make sure that the cable is securely plugged into the USB port on your computer and on your device. Connect the USB cable directly to your computer—do not run the cable through a USB hub. Restart your device before connecting the cable. Always disconnect your device before you restart your computer. In some specific cases, your device may experience connection problems when it is connected to a Windows computer running
8-4 Troubleshooting and Maintenance ActiveSync. To resolve the problems, please tap  Settings  Connections  USB to PC, and then clear Enable advanced network functionality. Problem Solution A warning message of not enough memory appears. Delete files you no longer need. Remove programs you no longer need. Delete all files and clear history in Internet Explorer. Stop programs you are not currently using. To check the state of your active programs, tap  Settings  System  Task Manager. Restart your device. Caring for Your Device Taking good care of your device will ensure trouble-free operation and reduce the risk of damage to your device.  Keep your device away from excessive moisture and extreme temperatures.  Avoid exposing your device to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet light for extended periods of time.  Do not place anything on top of your device or drop objects on your device.  Do not drop your device or subject it to severe shock.
Troubleshooting and Maintenance 8-5  Do not subject your device to sudden and severe temperature changes. This could cause moisture condensation inside the unit, which could damage your device. In the event of moisture condensation, allow your device to dry out completely before use.  The screen surface can easily be scratched. Avoid touching it with sharp objects. Non-adhesive generic screen protectors designed specifically for use on portable devices with LCD panels may be used to help protect the screen from minor scratches.  Never clean your device with it powered on. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the screen and the exterior of your device.  Do not use paper towels to clean the screen.  Never attempt to disassemble, repair or make any modifications to your device. Disassembly, modification or any attempt at repair could cause damage to your device and even bodily injury or property damage and will void the warranty.  Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same compartment as your device, its parts or accessories.

About the Radio Frequency Exposure This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. 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 1.6W/kg.
Regulatory Information 9-5 *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. The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.588 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.508 W/kg. (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 requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: QYLMH132. For body worn operation, this device 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 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
