User Manual Mercury   : 1.3   : 95/03/10 3 INVENTEC CORPORATION  z Do not expose the device to direct sunlight, or leave the device in a humid environment, for extended periods of time, as this may cause damage to the device and battery. z Do not immerse the device in water. z The device may interfere with the navigation and/or communication systems on aircraft. The use of the device on aircraft is prohibited by laws in most countries. z Use hands-free devices, if you need to use the telephony services, while driving a vehicle. FCC Regulations This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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 device 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 radiated 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 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/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. RF Exposure Information (SAR) 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
User Manual Mercury   : 1.3   : 95/03/10 4 INVENTEC CORPORATION  Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/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. SAR Information z 0.27W/Kg @1g FCC (head) z 0.396W/Kg @1g FCC (body) z 0.712W/Kg @10g (CE) 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: DGIBC0153AAA000. 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. If you do no t use a body-worn 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. Interference with Medical Equipment Functions This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics. Nonionizing Radiation This product should be operated in the suggested normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.

User Manual Mercury   : 1.3   : 95/03/10 73 INVENTEC CORPORATION  5.1 Overview of Bluetooth Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information over a distance of about 10 metres without requiring a physical connection. You can even beam information to a device in a different room, as long as it is within range. The software included with your phone allows you to use Bluetooth in the following ways: z Beam information, such as files, appointments, tasks, and contact cards, between devices that have Bluetooth capabilities. z Create a connection between your device and a Bluetooth phone to use the phone as a modem. Bluetooth Modes Bluetooth on your phone operates in three different modes: 1. On. Bluetooth is turned on and you can use Bluetooth features. 2. Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using Bluetooth. You might want to turn off the radio at times to conserve battery power, or in situations where radio use is prohibited, such as onboard an aircraft and in hospitals. 3. Vibible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices within a range of 10 metres can detect your phone. Turning Bluetooth On or Off 1. Tap > Settings > Connections tab> Bluetooth. By default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, and then turn off your phone, Bluetooth also turns off. When you turn on your phone again, Bluetooth automatically turns on.

Making Your Device Visible To receive beamed information, beaming devices or computers must be able to detect your device. 1. Tap > Settings > Connections tab > Bluetooth. 2. Select Make this device Visible to other devices, and tap .
User Manual Mercury   : 1.3   : 95/03/10 75 INVENTEC CORPORATION  Other Bluetooth-enabled devices can now detect your phone and attempt to beam information to it, establish a Bluetooth partnership, or use a Bluetooth service. 5.2 Bluetooth Partnership (Bonding) A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange information in a secure manner. Creating a partnership between two devices involves entering the same personal identification number (PIN) on both devices, and this is a one-time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices can recognize the partnership and exchange information without entering a PIN again. Make sure the two devices are within a range of 10 meters, and Bluetooth is turned on and in discoverable mode. Creating a Bluetooth Partnership 1. Tap > Settings > Connections tab> Bluetooth > Devices tab. 2. Tap Add new device. Your device searches for other Bluetooth-enabled devices and displays them in the list. Selecting Visible also turns on Bluetooth. Turning off Bluetooth will make your device not visible, and it will also prevent you from sending a Bluetooth beam.

Once you select Receive incoming beams, your phone automatically receives beams until you clear this check box. Your phone can receive all types of beamed files, but you may not be able to view all types of files on the phone. You may need to copy some files to a PC for viewing. When using Bluetooth, if the device that you want to beam to doesn't appear in the list, ensure that the device is turned on, visible, and within close range of your phone. Also, ensure that Bluetooth is turned on.
