CommunicationGmailGmail is DifferentGmail is web-based: Your messages are stored on-line, on GoogleTM servers but you can read, write, and organize messages by using the Gmail application on your phone or by using a web browser on a computer. Because your mail is stored on Google servers, you can search your entire message history, backed by the speed and power of Google search.Actions that you take in one place are reflected everywhere. For example, if you read a message in Gmail on your phone, it will be marked as read in a web browser. And a message that you send using a browser, or even a draft of a message, is visible in Gmail on the phone.Gmail is conversation-based: Each message and all replies to it are grouped in your Inbox as a single conversation. In other email applications, replies to messages are spread across your Inbox, typically by date received, so a message and the replies to it are separated by other messages. Gmail makes it easy to follow the thread of a conversation.Gmail is organized by labels, not by folders: Gmail allows you to tag messages with labels, allowing you to organize your conversations in many different ways. For example, with Gmail you can label a conversation with your mother about your brother’s birthday present with both “Mom” and “Dave”.  Later, you can search for all the messages containing either label. In other email applications, each message can only be located in one folder.  You’d have to store each message in the “Mom” folder or the “Dave” folder, but not both.Gmail for the phone is optimized for mobile use: Some features are only accessible on your computer browser. The best place to organize and learn about Gmail is the web. For example, you can’t use the Gmail application on the phone to create the labels and filters that you use to organize your messages, but you can label a message. Gmail on the web offers complete information about the service, so it’s the best place to learn about all of the features of Gmail.
CommunicationGmail is for Gmail: Of course you can use Gmail to send email to any email address, and anyone can send email to you at your Gmail address. But if you want to read messages from another email service provider (using your AOL, Yahoo!, or other email account), you must use the Email application.Opening Gmail and Your InboxWhen you open the Gmail application, the most recent conversations are displayed in your Inbox.To open the Gmail applicationTouch the Apps Key  > Gmail  .All of your conversations are displayed in your Inbox unless you delete, archive, or filter them.The current Google Account is displayed at the top right of the Inbox.

SafetyAdditional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless DevicesOn July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities.While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate.The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing device users to find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box.The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.HAC statement  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 questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
SafetyM-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for best use.In the example to the left, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal  operation.The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.When you’re talking on a cell phone, it’s recommended that you turn the BT (Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.According to HAC policy (KDB 285076), we state this handset has not been rated for hearing aid compatibility with respect to the Wi-Fi capability.For information about hearing aids and digital wireless phonesWireless Phones and Hearing Aid Accessibilityhttp://www.accesswireless.org/Home.aspxFCC Hearing Aid Compatibility and Volume Controlhttp://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/hac_wireless.html
