reached the target position.

Important Safety Information
General Precautions
Important Safety Information 23
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for
Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which
cannot guarantee connection in all conditions.
Therefore you should never rely solely upon any
mobile phone for essential communication (e.g.,
medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be
possible on all cellular networks or when certain
network services or mobile phone features are in
use. Check with your local service provider for
details.
Using Your Phone While Driving
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the
phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in
some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific
restrictions. Remember that safety always comes
first.
Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always
follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn
your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or
when it may cause interference or danger.
Using Your Phone Near Other
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals
from wireless phones may affect inadequately
shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic operating systems
or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or their representative to
determine if these systems are adequately shielded
from external RF signals. Also check with the
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has
been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical
devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to
determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF signals.
Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare
facilities, and request permission before
using the phone near medical equipment.
Maintaining Safe Use of and
Access to Your Phone
24 Important Safety Information
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To
prevent possible interference with aircraft systems,
the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
regulations require you to have permission from a
crew member to use your phone while the plane is
on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference,
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the
plane is in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous
Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn
your phone off when in a blasting area or in other
areas with signs indicating two-way radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-
control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that
has a potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s
rare, your phone and accessories could generate
sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire,
resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas
are often, but not always, clearly marked. They
include:
●Fueling areas such as gas stations.
●Below deck on boats.
●Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
●Areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
●Any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.
Note: Never transport or store flammable gas,
flammable liquids, or explosives in the
compartment of your vehicle that contains
your phone or accessories.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your
Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play
with it as they could hurt themselves and others,
damage the phone or make calls that increase your
Virgin Mobile invoice.
Important Safety Information 25
A number of Virgin Mobile phones have been tested
for hearing aid device compatibility. When some
wireless phones are used with certain hearing
devices (including hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a noise which can
interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing
device.
Some hearing devices are more immune than
others to this interference noise, and phones also
vary in the amount of interference noise they may
generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to
provide a standardized means of measuring both
wireless phone and hearing devices to determine
usability rating categories for both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to
assist hearing device users find phones that may be
compatible with their hearing device. Not all phones
have been rated for compatibility with hearing
devices. Phones that have been rated have a label
located on the box. Your Kyocera Event has an M4
and a T4 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user’s hearing device and
individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a
hearing device is particularly vulnerable to
interference noise; even a phone with a higher
rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in
the hearing device. 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 for hearing aid compatibility and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing
devices than unrated phones. (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.)
Note: 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
Using Your Phone With a
Hearing Aid Device
26 Important Safety Information
questions about return or exchange policies,
consult your service provider or phone
retailer.
Hearing aid devices may also be measured for
immunity to interference noise from wireless phones
and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your
hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your
hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and
your phone to determine probable usability:
●Any combined rating equal to or greater than six
offers excellent use.
●Any combined rating equal to five is considered
normal use.
●Any combined rating equal to four is considered
usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3
phone, you will have a combined rating of six for
“excellent use.” This is synonymous for T ratings.
More information about hearing aid compatibility
may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and
www.accesswireless.org.
Getting the Best Hearing Device
Experience With Your Phone
To further minimize interference:
●Set the phone’s display and key backlight settings
to ensure the minimum time interval:
1. Press Home > Menu , and touch
System settings > Display > Sleep or
Key backlight.
2. Touch the minimum time interval setting.
●Position the phone so the internal antennas are
farthest from your hearing aid.
●Move the phone around to find the point with
least interference.
Important Safety Information 27
Protecting Your Battery
The guidelines listed below help you get the most
out of your battery’s performance.
●Recently there have been some public reports of
wireless phone batteries overheating, catching
fire, or exploding. It appears that many, if not all,
of these reports involve counterfeit or
inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with
unknown or questionable manufacturing
standards. Virgin Mobile is not aware of similar
problems with Virgin Mobile phones resulting
from the proper use of batteries and accessories
approved by Virgin Mobile or the manufacturer of
your phone. Use only Virgin Mobile-approved or
manufacturer-approved batteries and
accessories. Buying the right batteries and
accessories is the best way to ensure they’re
genuine and safe.
●Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or
deform, or puncture or shred the battery.
●Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert
foreign objects into the battery, immerse or
expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire,
explosion, or other hazard.
●Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone
or battery is dropped, especially on a hard
surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to
a service center for inspection.
●Improper battery use may result in a fire,
explosion or other hazard.
●Do not short-circuit a battery or allow metallic
conductive objects to contact battery terminals.
●Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery
clean.
●Battery usage by children should be supervised.
Charging
●In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only
in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F
(0° C to 45° C).
●Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or
in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.
●The battery may need recharging if it has not
been used for a long period of time.
●It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer
provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged
hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
Caring for the Battery
28 Important Safety Information
Storing
●Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas
for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these
storage rules:
▪Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
▪More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
Batteries
●Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations.
●Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
●Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion
battery as you can be burned.
●For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries,
contact your nearest Virgin Mobile authorized
service center.
Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery
properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in
household or business trash may be prohibited.
Understanding How Your Phone
Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and
receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and
transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you
use your phone, the system handling your call
controls the power level. This power can range from
0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated
NCRP standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in
updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than
120 scientists, engineers and physicians from
universities, government health agencies and
industries developed this updated standard after
reviewing the available body of research. In 1993,
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In
August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Important Safety Information 29
the guidelines published by the National Council of
Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use
a Virgin Mobile-supplied or Virgin Mobile-approved
carrying case, holster or other body-worn
accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory,
ensure the antennas are at least 0.591 inches
(1.5 centimeters) from your body when
transmitting. Use of non-Virgin Mobile-approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure
guidelines. Other accessories used with this phone
for body-worn operations must not contain any
metallic components and must provide at least
0.591 inches (1.5 centimeters) separation
distance between the antennas and the user’s body.
For more information about RF exposure, visit the
FCC website at www.fcc.gov.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for
Wireless Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of
RF energy absorbed into the head of a user of a
wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an
extensive testing, measuring and calculation
process. It does not represent how much RF the
phone emits. All phone models are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when
in operation, the SAR of a phone can be
substantially less than the level reported to the FCC.
This is because of a variety of factors including its
proximity to a base station antenna, phone design
and other factors. What is important to remember is
that each phone meets strict federal guidelines.
Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in
safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which
incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As
stated above, variations in SAR values between
different model phones do not mean variations in
safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard
of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the
public.
The highest reported SAR values of Your Kyocera
Event are:
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.26 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.65 W/kg
