Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.Safety and Warning IconsThe following conventions are used in this User Manual:Warning!Failure to comply with this warning could result in death or serious injury. Before doing this task, be sure to familiarize yourself with appropriate safety practices, personal protective equipment and have a plan in case of accident. CautionFailure to follow directions carefully could result in injury. Care must be taken. Do not let your battery, charger, or satellite phone come in contact with water.Risk of explosion.High heat source. Burn risk.

2: Safety2: Safety9575A User Manual 54 9575A User ManualSpecic Absorption Rate DataThis 9575A meets international standards for exposure to radio waves.Your satellite phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and established permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientic organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientic studies. The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. Under the guidelines for this model, the SAR limit is 1.6 W/Kg. Tests for SAR were conducted in accordance with the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC) and FCC testing procedures using standard operating positions with the phone transmitting at its highest certied power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certied power level, the actual SAR of the phone while operating can be below the maximum value. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it is tested to conrm compliance with the guidelines. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) that conform to a uniform testing methodology determined by an expert standards body.The highest SAR level recorded from this product was 1.27 W/Kg which was below the uncontrolled (i.e., general population) limit. While there may be dierences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) concluded in May, 2011 that that there is limited evidence to suggest a possible link between RF signals and two specic types of cancer. The IARC’s conclusion is based on its review of existing studies and information. The FCC and FDA, however, indicated that there is not sucient scientic evidence to support a link between wireless device use and cancer and that use of wireless phones according to current regulations is safe.

When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. Your 9575A is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements in your country concerning the exposure of human beings to RF frequency.International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.• International Commission on Non- Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)• Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE)• United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Radio Frequency Exposure Guidelines• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86• Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6The design of your phone complies with these standards when used as described under “Phone Operation” on page 39.This product is compliant with Industry Canada RSS-102 for RF Exposure.Refer to “Specic Absorption Rate Data” on page 5.

2: Safety2: Safety9575A User Manual 76 9575A User Manual WARNINGUse of non-Iridium batteries or chargers could result in serious injury or death caused by re, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Important: Use only Iridium products for safety and quality assurance. Iridium’s warranty does not cover damage caused by use of non-Iridium batteries. Battery ChargingBatteries may be charged and discharged many times, but eventually they wear out.Important: Follow these guidelines when charging your battery:• Keep the battery at room temperature. Never expose batteries to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 40°C (104°F) when charging.• New batteries are not fully charged and may take more time to charge.Battery DisposalProper battery disposal is not only important for safety but also benets the environment. Consumers should recycle used batteries and telephones in accordance with applicable national, state or local laws and regulations.Under EU requirements, all electrical and electronic products must be taken to separate collection at the end of their working life and must not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste. WARNINGDo not dispose of your battery in a re, because this may cause an explosion resulting in serious injury or death. Emergency CallingCHECK WITH YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER FOR LOCAL EMERGENCY NUMBERS (full international access code, country code, and phone number) for all locations outside the United States and mainland Australia. Iridium currently only supports in-country emergency call routing to 911 within the United States and to Triple Zero (000) or 112 within mainland Australia. Outside of the United States and mainland Australia, calls to emergency If you wish to reduce your exposure to RF energy, you can limit the amount of time you use the phone and increase the distance between the phone/antenna and your body when you use it. For example, you may use the phone’s speakerphone feature or use with a wired earpiece and microphone to increase distance when you use the phone. PLEASE NOTE THAT MODIFICATIONS TO THIS PRODUCT MODEL COULD CAUSE DIFFERENCES IN THE SAR VALUE FOR LATER PRODUCTS; IN ALL CASES, PRODUCTS ARE DESIGNED TO BE WITHIN THE GUIDELINES.BatteriesAll batteries may cause serious injury or property damage, particularly if handled improperly or used after damage. WARNINGFailure to follow these safety instructions could result in serious injury or death caused by fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.Make sure to follow all of the following safety guidelines:• Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred or otherwise attempt to change the form of the battery.• Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with water. Water can lead to corrosion of the phone’s circuits.• Do not allow the battery to touch metal objects. Contact with metal objects can cause the battery to heat and possibly explode.• Do not place your battery near a heat source.
