2.2.3 Important Information About the Battery
• If the battery has not been used for a long time, you may not be able to
power on your mobile phone immediately after you begin charging the
battery. Allow the battery to charge for a few minutes with the phone
powered off before attempting to power the phone on.
• As it ages, the battery’s performance will degrade, in particular it will not
hold charge as it did when it was new. When the battery life becomes
noticeably shorter than usual after being charged properly, replace the
battery with a new one of the same type.
• Using data services increases the power consumption of the phone and will
therefore reduce the length of time that the phone can be used between
battery charges.
• The time required to fully charge the battery depends on the ambient
temperature and the age of the battery.
• When the battery power is low, the phone will alert you and display a
message. When the battery power is almost exhausted, your phone will
power off automatically.
2.2.4 Power Saving Tips
The longevity of battery power depends on the network to which you connect,
and how you use your mobile phone.

• When your mobile phone is not in use, turn off the screen backlight.
• Reduce the time it takes for your screen backlight to turn off when your
phone is idle.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it. Only make your phone visible

10 Synchronizing Information
Some applications on your mobile phone give you access to the same
personal information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer. If you
add, change, or delete your information in any of these applications on the
web, the updated information also appears on your mobile phone.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronization. The process
occurs in the background and does not interfere with use of your mobile
phone. When your phone is synchronizing, a data synchronization icon will be
shown in the notification bar.
10.1 Managing Your Accounts
You can synchronize contacts, email, and other information on your mobile
phone with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of accounts, depending
on the applications installed on your mobile phone.
For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so your
personal email, contacts, and calendar are always available. You could then
add a work account, so your work-related emails and work contacts are
handy. If you like, you may add multiple Google accounts or other accounts.
51
10.1.1 Adding an Account
When you add an account, the
Contacts
application compares contacts from
the newly synchronized account with contacts from your existing mobile
phone accounts and attempts to merge duplicates into a single entry in
Contacts
. While it is presented as a single contact entry, the contact data
itself is not merged.
1. On the Home screen, touch >
Settings
>
Accounts & sync
. The
screen displays your current synchronization settings and a list of your
current accounts.
In some cases, you may need to obtain account details from IT support.
For example, you may need to know the account’s domain or server
address.
2. Touch
Add account
.
3. Touch the kind of account to add.
4. Follow the onscreen steps to enter the required and optional information
about the account. Most accounts require a username and password, but
the details depend on the kind of account and the configuration of the
service to which you are connecting.
5. Configure the account. Depending on the kind of account, you may be
asked to configure what kind of data you want to synchronize to the mobile
phone, to name the account, and for other details. When you are finished,
the account is added to the list on the
Accounts & sync settings
screen.
10.1.2 Removing an Account
You can remove an account, deleting it and all information associated with it
from your mobile phone, including email, contacts, settings, and so on. You
cannot, however, remove some accounts, such as the first account you
signed into on the mobile phone. If you attempt to remove certain accounts, all
personal information associated with it will be deleted.
You can only remove the first Google Account by resetting the phone to
factory defaults.
1. On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, touch the account to be deleted.
2. Touch
Sign Out
.
3. Confirm that you want to remove the account.
52
10.2 Customizing Your Account
Synchronization
You can configure background data use and synchronization options for all
the applications on your phone. You can also configure what kind of data you
synchronize for each account.
For some accounts, synchronization is bi-directional; changes that you make
to the information on your mobile phone are made to the copy of that
information on the web. Some accounts support only one-way
synchronization; the information on your mobile phone is read-only.
10.2.1 Configuring General Synchronization Settings
On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, do the following:
• Select or clear the
Background data
check box to control whether
applications and services can transmit data when you are not working with
them directly (that is, when they are running in the background).
If you clear this option,
Gmail
™ stops receiving new mails,
Calendar
stops synchronizing events, and so on, until you refresh them.
• Select or clear the
Auto-sync
check box to control whether changes you
make to information on the phone or on the web are automatically
synchronized with each other.
For example, when this option is selected, changes that you make in
Contacts
on the phone are automatically made in Google Contacts on
the web.
10.2.2 Changing an Account’s Synchronization Settings
1. On the
Accounts & sync settings
screen, touch the account whose
synchronization settings you want to change. The data and synchronization
screen opens, displaying a list of the kinds of information the account can

71
Certification Information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended
by international guidelines, the device is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to
ensure safety for all users, regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the
amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device.
The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory
conditions, but the actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be
well below the value. This is because the device is designed to use the
minimum power required to reach the network.
The SAR limit adopted by USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the
FCC and IC for this device type when tested for use at the ear is 1.34 W/kg,
and when properly worn on the body is 1.02 W/kg.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones
compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless
phones do not usually cause interference with hearing aids or cochlear
implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of electromagnetic
energy emitted by the phone's antenna, backlight, or other components.
Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19).
While 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 a rating system for wireless
phones, to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible
with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are
rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are
not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and
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 to 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
that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.) Hearing devices may also
be measured.
Your phone meets the M4/T3 level rating. Hearing devices may also be rated.
Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help
73
you find this rating. 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.
