Important Safety Information
This phone guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely
use your phone. Failure to read and follow the information provided in this phone guide may
result in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
General Precautions
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe,
satisfactory service.
●
To maximize performance, do not touch the portions of your phone where the internal
antennas are located while using the phone.
●
Speak directly into the mouthpiece.
●
Your phone is water-resistant but not waterproof.
●
Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for extended periods of time (such as on the
dashboard of a car).
●
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken.
Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
●
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could
void your warranty for this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.
●
Authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be
dangerous and void your warranty.
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone
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 wireless 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
Using your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is
prohibited in certain jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember to focus on
driving 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.
Personal Implantable Medical Devices
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 request permission before using the phone in healthcare facilities or near medical
equipment.
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
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 help prevent the risk of interference, 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 may include:

Fueling areas, such as gas stations.

Below deck on ships and boats.

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
Important Safety Information
159

Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle‟s engine,
for example.
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, make inadvertent emergency calls, or make other calls that may
impact your Boost account.
Water Resistance
Your Hydro is water-resistant. To ensure that your device maintains water resistance, the
following precautions must be observed.
●
Make sure the battery cover is properly attached and locked.
●
Make sure the charger/accessory jack and the headphone jack are properly sealed, with no
foreign objects obstructing the seals.
●
Do not expose your phone to water heated in excess of 104°F (40°C), or to liquids other
than water, such as detergent, beverages, or chlorinated or treated water.
Charging
●
Dry your phone with a clean cloth before charging.
●
Do not touch the charger, charging cable, charger/ accessory jack, or the power connectors
with wet hands. Doing so may cause electric shock, injury, or product failure.
●
Do not charge your phone in a wet or damp place, such as in a bathroom or near a kitchen
sink.
Warning: Your phone is designed to withstand exposure to water for up to 30 minutes at a
depth not exceeding one meter (about 3.25 feet). Exposing your phone to water
outside these limits or not following the above precautions can result in water damage.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
A number of Boost 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
Important Safety Information
160
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 to 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 Hydro 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: New Technologies, Including Wi-Fi 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 newer
wireless technologies (including Wi-Fi) used in this phone that have not been tested for use
with hearing aids.
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.
Boost further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or
M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should
you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your
phone, promptly return it to the store. More information about hearing aid compatibility may be
found at: http://www.fcc.gov, http://www.fda.gov, and http://www.accesswireless.org.

Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Phone
To further minimize interference:
●
Set the phone‟s display backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval (see Sleep
within Display section):
1.
Press Home
> Menu
2.
Touch a delay time to select it.
, and touch System settings > Display > Sleep.
●
Position the phone so the internal antennas are farthest from your hearing aid.
●
Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.
Caring for the Battery
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. Boost is not aware of similar problems with Boost phones resulting from the
proper use of batteries and accessories approved by the manufacturer of your phone. Use
only manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories through your phone‟s manufacturer.
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, 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).
Important Safety Information
162
●
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.
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 Boost
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.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
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
Important Safety Information
163
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 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 the Boost-supplied or Boost-approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn accessory.
If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antennas are at least 0.590 inches (1.5
centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Boost-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 0.590 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 http://www.fcc.gov.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in 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 the Hydro are:
PCS mode (Part 24):
Head: 1.14 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.58 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: V65C5170.
