For your safety and the safety of other passengers, always follow crew instructions regarding the use of your phone. Environmental hazards When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Road safety When behind the wheel, driving safely should always be your first priority. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), scientific research indicates that using a
Safety and regulatory guide 5 wireless phone while driving degrades a driver’s performance, whether used in a hands-free or hand-held mode. NHTSA advises that the “safest course of action is to refrain from using a cell phone while driving.” NHTSA’s policy on “Cell Phone Use While Driving,” as well as Frequently Asked Questions on the subject, are available at www.nhtsa.gov. For your safety and the safety of those around you, please consider turning your phone off while you are driving. If you choose to use your phone while driving, be aware that some state and local governments have adopted laws governing the use of wireless devices while driving. It is your responsibility to know and comply with the laws in your area. General precautions You alone are responsible for how you use your phone and any consequences of its use. You should switch off your phone wherever the use of a phone is prohibited.  Avoid dropping, throwing, bending, or applying excessive pressure to the device Do not apply excessive pressure on the screen and the device to prevent damaging them.

Safety and regulatory guide 7 Regulatory agency identifications For regulatory identification purposes, your product is assigned a model number of 2PYR200. Your phone’s FCC ID is NM82PYR200. To view your FCC ID and IC ID in your device you may also go to the Settings menu  About  Legal Information  Regulatory. IMPORTANT NOTE: The Country Code selection for 2.4 GHz WLAN is disabled on this device. Operation in the 2.4 GHz band is restricted to Channels 1 – 11. Federal Communication Commission interference statement 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. 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 of the following measures:  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
8 Safety and regulatory guide 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. FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for wireless devices The FCC has adopted rules to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. As part of this effort, the industry uses a rating system for wireless phones to help hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants). This hearing-aid compatibility (HAC) rating system is described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard and includes the following ratings: M-Ratings: For phones that use acoustic coupling with hearing devices that are not operating in telecoil mode. Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC HAC requirements and are likely to generate less radio frequency interference with hearing devices than phones with lower ratings. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your 2PYR200 is rated M4. T-Ratings: For phones that use inductive coupling with hearing devices operating in telecoil mode. Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC HAC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing aid’s telecoil than phones that are not rated. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your 2PYR200 is rated T4. This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer. The ratings are not guarantees. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs. Results will vary depending on a user’s hearing device and hearing loss. For example, if some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices, users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others
Safety and regulatory guide 9 to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Please power off the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid devices with your 2PYR200.

These limits use a unit of measurement called Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which refers to the rate at which the human body absorbs RF energy. For more information on Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC) SAR and radio frequency exposure, please see our Radio Frequency Safety web page at: http://www.htc.com/us/support/content.aspx?id=6505. HTC Corp. submitted SAR test results demonstrating compliance with the FCC’s SAR limit for wireless devices as part of the FCC’s equipment certification process for this device. These results can be accessed via the FCC’s equipment authorization database (found at http://www.fcc.gov/fccid) by searching for the device’s FCC ID: NM82PYR200. This device’s maximum SAR values as reported to the FCC are:  Head: 0.196 W/kg@1g  Body-worn Accessory: 0.394 W/kg@1g Body-worn operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. A minimum separation distance of 1 cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply
10 Safety and regulatory guide with RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. RF radiation exposure statement  This equipment must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a burn may result. RoHS compliance This product is in compliance with Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011, on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) and its amendments.
