care: The following suggestions will help you protect your phone:
Always keep the small parts of the phone away from children.
Keep the device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and all types of liquids or moisture
can contain minerals that will rust electronic circuits. If your device does get wet,
remove the battery, and allow the device to dry completely before replacing it.
Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and
electronic components can be damaged.
Do not store the device in high or cold temperature. High temperatures can
shorten the life of electronic devices and damage batteries.
Do not attempt to open the device other than as instructed in this guide.
Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can break internal
circuit boards and fine mechanics.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the
device. Only use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface of the device.
Do not paint the device. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent proper
operation.
Use indoor chargers.

FCC Statement
1. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
SAR Information Statement
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs
a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
-18-
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network.
In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government
adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The
highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.599W/Kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.715W/Kg(Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and
FCC requirements). The maximum scaled SAR in hotspot mode is 0.943W/Kg. While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has
granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RFexposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID:2ALJJPL570 Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at
http://www.wow-com.com. * 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 sub-stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.

Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation distance
of 10mm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,
and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved
antenna.
