46 pdQ2 User’s GuideDRAFTPhone care Use these guidelines to optimize the performance and life of your phone, antenna, and battery.Phone❑Do not let unauthorized personnel install or service your phone or accessories. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.❑Only use approved accessories. Use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate your phone warranty if the accessories cause damage or a defect to the phone. See “Accessories” on page 50.❑Keep the phone dry. If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately. Let it dry before you use it again. In general, treat the pdQ2 as you would a pocket calculator or other small electronic instrument.❑To avoid scratching the screen, always use the stylus or other plastic-tipped pen intended for a touch-sensitive screen. Never use a pen, pencil, or other sharp object on the surface of the screen.❑Treat the phone gently. The touch-sensitive screen contains a glass element. Do not drop the phone or subject it to any strong impact. Do not carry your pdQ2 in your back pocket. If you sit on it, the glass may break.pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 46  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM
Phone care 47DRAFT❑Protect the pdQ2 from temperature extremes. Do not leave it on the dashboard of a car on a hot day, and keep it away from heaters and other heat sources. Store it out of direct sunlight.❑Do not store or use the pdQ2 in any location that is extremely dusty, damp, or wet.❑Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the phone. Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened with a diluted window-cleaning solution.❑Avoid using suntan lotion around the phone. Chemicals in suntan lotions can damage your phone.Antenna Follow these guidelines to get the best reception.❑Fully extend the antenna when you place or receive a call.❑Do not touch the antenna while you are on a call. Do not bend or twist the antenna.❑When using the headset, keep the headset wire away from the antenna.❑When using the phone to connect to the Internet or send and receive email, make sure the extended antenna is at least 20 centimeters (8 inches) away from other people and is pointed away from them.BatteryYour pdQ2 has a rechargeable lithium ion battery. To charge the battery, either plug the power cable directly into the phone or plug the power cable into the cradle and place the phone in the cradle. You can purchase pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 47  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM

This feature turns off the PDA after a set number of minutes of non-use. The shorter a time you select, the more energy is saved. See “Entering information” on page 19.❑Minimize the use of the backlight. ❑If you don’t use the Beaming feature to receive data from other devices, leave the Beam Receive setting at Off. See “Entering information” on page 19.❑If you don’t plan to make or receive calls, you can use the PDA without turning on the phone.❑Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.❑Keep the metal contacts at the base of the battery clean.❑If you have not used an internal or external battery for more than a month, recharge it before using it.❑Do not charge any battery if the temperature is below 32ºF (0ºC) or above 122ºF (50ºC).❑Do not store any battery in hot areas for long periods of time. Use these storage guidelines:under 1 month: -4º to 140ºF (-20º to 60ºC)over 1 month: -4ºF to 113ºF (-20º to 45ºC)pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 48  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM
Phone care 49DRAFTReplacing the batteryIf you have to replace the battery in your pdQ2, be aware of the following considerations.❑If the battery becomes low, an alert appears on the screen. Before you replace the battery, perform a HotSync operation to back up your data. This helps prevent accidental data loss.❑If the pdQ2 does not turn on when you press the End/Power key on the keypad, recharge the battery immediately.❑Before replacing the battery, turn the phone off. Never remove the battery while the telephone features are active. To verify that the phone is turned off, open and then close the flip. The words “Phone is off” appear on the screen. Then the screen becomes blank.❑Only remove the battery to replace it with another battery. Don’t leave the battery out of the pdQ2. For example, if your battery becomes drained while you are traveling and you don’t have a second battery or a cradle to recharge it, it is better to leave the drained battery in the pdQ2 than to remove it.❑If the battery drains completely, the pdQ2 no longer operates. However, the built-in backup battery stores your clock settings for about two days and your data for about seven days. There is enough residual energy in the battery to store the data, but not enough to turn on the pdQ2. ❑If you leave a drained battery in the pdQ2 for an extended period of time (more than seven days), you can lose all of the stored data. If this happens, replace the battery and reset the pdQ2. Then perform a HotSync operation to restore data from your computer.pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 49  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM

52 pdQ2 User’s GuideDRAFTPhone safetyRadio frequency (RF) energyYour pdQ2 is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on, it receives and also sends out RF energy. Your service provider’s phone network controls the power level of the RF signal. This power level can range from 0.006 watts to 0.6 watts.There are situations in which wireless phones must be turned off for reasons of safety. You can quickly turn off the pdQ2 simply by holding down the End/Power key on the keypad for a few seconds.Exposure to RF energyIn August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones. These guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies in the following reports:■ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards Institute, 1992)■NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, 1986)■ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, 1996)pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 52  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM
Phone safety 53DRAFTMedical devicesPacemakers—If your portable wireless phone is too close to a pacemaker, the phone’s RF energy may interfere with the pacemaker’s operation. The Health Industry Manufacturers Association and the wireless technology research community recommend that you follow these guidelines to minimize the potential for interference.■Always keep the phone at least six inches (15 centimeters) away from your pacemaker when the phone is turned on. ■Do not carry your phone near your heart.■Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.■If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn off your phone immediately.Hearing aids—Some digital wireless phones may interfere with hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.Other medical devices—If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of the device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to help you obtain this information. In health care facilities—Turn your phone off in health care facilities when instructed. Hospitals and health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.pdq2_QuickStart.book  Page 53  Friday, July 28, 2000  6:37 PM
