Section 5: Entering Text
This section outlines how to select the desired text input mode
when entering characters into your phone. This section also
describes how to use the T9 predictive text system to reduce the
number of key strokes associated with entering text.
Changing the Text Input Mode
When you are in a field that allows characters to be entered, the
text input mode indicator displays on the bottom right of the
screen.
Example: Writing a text message.
When using your phone, you often need to enter text, such as
when storing a name in your Phonebook, creating your personal
greeting or scheduling events on your calendar. You can enter
alphanumeric characters by using your phone’s keypad.
Your phone has the following text input modes:
• T9 mode: this mode allows you to enter words with only one keystroke
per letter. Each key on the keypad has more than one letter; for
example, pressing
can enter J, K, or L. However, the T9 mode
automatically compares the series of keystrokes you make with an
internal linguistic dictionary to determine the most likely word, thus
requiring far fewer keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.
• ABC mode: this mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the key
labeled with the letter you want.
• Number mode: this mode allows you to enter numbers.
• Symbol mode: this mode allows you to enter symbols, such as
punctuation marks.

Section 6: Understanding Your Phonebook
This section explains how to use and manage your Phonebook.
You can save phone numbers to your phone’s memory on to your
SIM card.
Storing a Number in the Phone’s Memory
The default storage location for saving phone numbers to your
phonebook is your phone’s built-in memory. You can also save
your numbers to your SIM card or setup a default location so that
whenever a new phonebook entry is created, you are prompted
to choose between Phone or SIM card. For information on how
to change this setting, see “Default Saving” on page 41. Also,
numbers that were stored on your SIM card can later be copied
to your phone’s memory.
Note: When you copy a phone number from your SIM card to your phone, the
number displays twice in your Contact list.
Note: When storing a Phonebook entry into your SIM card, note that only the
Name, and Number are saved. To save additional information for a
particular contact, such as notes, e-mail, dates, etc., it is important to
save that Contact into your phone’s onboard memory.

Certification Information (SAR)
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure
limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
government. These FCC exposure limits are derived from
the recommendations of two expert organizations, the
National Counsel on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the
recommendations were developed by scientific and
engineering experts drawn from industry, government,
and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific
literature related to the biological effects of RF energy.
Health and safety information
Exposure to radio frequency
(RF) signals
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of
the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body
expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless phones to comply with a safety limit of
1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection to the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC 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 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.
23
Health and safety information
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the exposure limit established by the
FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC.
The highest SAR values for this model phone as reported
to the FCC are :
GSM850 Head: 0.276 W/Kg, Body-worn: 0.299 W/Kg.
GSM1900 Head: 0.178 W/Kg, Body-worn: 0.331 W/Kg.
SAR information on this and other model phones can be
viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. This site uses the
phone FCC ID number A3LSGHT229.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery
pack to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID
number for a particular phone, follow the instructions on
the website and it should provide values for typical or
maximum SAR for a particular phone. Additional product
specific SAR information can also be obtained at
www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar.
Consumer Information on Wireless Phones
For body worn operations, this model phone has been
testde and meets the FCC exposure guidelines when used
with a Samsung accessory designated for this product or
when used with an accessroy that contains no metal and
that positons the handset a minimum 1.5 cm from the
body.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in
violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
published a series of Questions and Answers for
consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure from
wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the
following information:
What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held wireless
phones with built-in antennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,”
or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones
are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in
the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce
health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF
that does not produce heating effects causes no known
adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some
studies have suggested that some biological effects may
occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by
additional research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in
determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
Health and safety information
expose the user to measurable radio frequency energy
(RF) because of the short distance between the phone and
the user's head. These RF exposures are limited by
Federal Communications Commission safety guidelines
that were developed with the advice of FDA and other
federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is
located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to
RF is drastically lower because a person's RF exposure
decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the
source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a
base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house,
typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus
produce RF exposures well within the FCC's compliance
limits.
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless
phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs
or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to
take action if wireless phones are shown to emit radio
frequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to the
user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers
of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and
to repair, replace or recall the phones so that the hazard
no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone
25
Health and safety information
industry to take a number of steps, including the
following:
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
•
FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones
with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All
phones that are sold in the United States must comply
with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC
relies on FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless phones.
•
•
“Support needed research into possible biological
effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;
“Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any
RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for
device function; and
“Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with
the best possible information on possible effects of
wireless phone use on human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the
federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the
federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:
•
•
•
•
•
26
“National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
“Environmental Protection Agency
”Federal Communications Commission
”Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
”National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless
phone networks rely upon. While these base stations
operate at higher power than do the wireless phones
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these
base stations are typically thousands of times lower than
those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations
are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions
discussed in this document.
What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in their
research methods. Animal experiments investigating the
effects of radio frequency energy (RF) exposures
Three large epidemiology studies have been published
since December 2000. Between them, the studies
investigated any possible association between the use of
wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or
salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the
studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health
effects from wireless phones RF exposures. However, none
of the studies can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of phone use in these
studies was around three years.
What research is needed to decide whether RF
exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk?
Health and safety information
characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting
results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories.
A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low
levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that
showed increased tumor development used animals that
had been genetically engineered or treated with cancercausing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop
cancer in absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed
the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not similar to the conditions under which
people use wireless phones, so we don't know with
certainty what the results of such studies mean for human
health.
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological
studies of people actually using wireless phones would
provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal
exposure studies could be completed in a few years.
However, very large numbers of animals would be needed
to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if
one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that
is directly applicable to human populations, but ten or
more years' follow-up may be needed to provide answers
about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because
the interval between the time of exposure to a cancercausing agent and the time tumors develop - if they do may be many, many years. The interpretation of
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in
measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of
wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement,
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which
model of phone is used.
27
Health and safety information
What is FDA doing to find out more about the
possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program
and with groups of investigators around the world to
ensure that high priority animal studies are conducted to
address important questions about the effects of exposure
to radio frequency energy (RF).
FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health
Organization international Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)
Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of
this work has been the development of a detailed agenda
of research needs that has driven the establishment of
new research programs around the world. The Project has
also helped develop a series of public information
documents on EMF issues.
FDA and Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research
and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on
wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,
industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded
research is conducted through contracts to independent
investigators. The initial research will include both
28
laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users.
The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of
additional research needs in the context of the latest
research developments around the world.
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
radio frequency energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products - and at this point we
do not know that there is - it is probably very small. But if
you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks,
you can take a few simple steps to minimize your
exposure to radio frequency energy (RF). Since time is a
key factor in how much exposure a person receives,
reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone
will reduce RF exposure.
•
“If you must conduct extended conversations by
wireless phone every day, you could place more
distance between your body and the source of the RF,
since the exposure level drops off dramatically with
distance. For example, you could use a headset and
carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a
wireless phone connected to a remote antenna.
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless
phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF
exposure from these products, you can use measures like
those described above to reduce your RF exposure from
wireless phone use.
What about children using wireless phones?
Some groups sponsored by other national governments
have advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the
United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a
recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no
evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain
tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit
wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary;
it was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists.
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits
can be used with wireless phones for convenience and
comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF
energy in the head because the phone, which is the source
of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head.
On the other hand, if the phone is mounted against the
waist or other part of the body during use, then that part
of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones
marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety
requirements regardless of whether they are used against
the head or against the body. Either configuration should
result in compliance with the safety limit.
Health and safety information
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of
wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you
want to take steps to lower exposure to radio frequency
energy (RF), the measures described above would apply
to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing
the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance
between the user and the RF source will reduce RF
exposure.
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks
from exposure to RF emissions?
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield
the head from RF radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that accessories that claim to shield the head from
those emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to
shield the user from RF absorption use special phone
29
Health and safety information
cases, while others involve nothing more than a metallic
accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that
these products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike
“hand-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may interfere
with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be
forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an
increase in RF absorption. In February 2002, the Federal
trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold
devices that claimed to protect wireless phone users from
radiation with making false and unsubstantiated claims.
According to FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable
basis to substantiate their claim.
What about wireless phone interference with
medical equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, FDA
helped develop a detailed test method to measure
electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones.
This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by
the Association for the Advancement of Medical
instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by
FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other
30
groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will
allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers
and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA
has tested wireless phones and helped develop a
voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies
test methods and performance requirements for hearing
aids and wireless phones so that no interference occurs
when a person uses a compatible phone and a compatible
hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved
by the IEEE in 2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for
possible interactions with other medical devices. Should
harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will conduct
testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the
problem.

Road Safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But an
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car,
practice good common sense and remember the following
tips:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features, such
as speed dial and redial. If available, these features
help you to place your call without taking your
attention off the road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible,
add an additional layer of convenience and safety to
your wireless phone with one of the many hands free
accessories available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be
able to access your wireless phone without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at
an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for
you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know you are
driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic
or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice
and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while
driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or flipping through
your address book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility, driving safely.

6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place
calls when you are not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be
stationary. If you need to make a call while moving,
dial only a few numbers, check the road and your
mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations
that may be distracting. Make people you are talking
with aware you are driving and suspend conversations
that have the potential to divert your attention from
the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial 9-1-1 or
other local emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies. Remember, it
is a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in
progress or other serious emergency where lives are
in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number,
as you would want others to do for you.
10. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency
wireless assistance number when necessary. If you
see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a
broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no
one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be
32
stolen, call roadside assistance or other special nonemergency number.

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any
area and always switch your phone off whenever it is
forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or
danger. When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user's guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users
are advised that for the satisfactory operation of the
equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be used in
the normal operating position (held to your ear with the
antenna pointing over your shoulder).
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic
Devices
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch your phone off immediately.
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless phone. Consult the manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Hearing Aids
Pacemakers
Other Medical Devices
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information. Switch your phone off in health care facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to
do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
•
•
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6
inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is
switched on.
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize potential interference.
Health and safety information
These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with
the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
33
Health and safety information
Posted Facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone off when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch the phone off while at a
refueling point (service station). Users are reminded of the
need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment
in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas),
chemical plants or where blasting operations are in
progress.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio
signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user
programmed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for example).
34
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must
be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all
wireless phone networks or when certain network services
and/or phone features are in use. Check with local service
providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location (for example, 911 or other official emergency
number). Emergency numbers vary by location.
3. Press [SEND].
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example),
you may first need to deactivate those features before you
can make an emergency call. Consult this document and
your local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the
necessary information as accurately as possible.
Remember that your phone may be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident; do not cut off
the call until given permission to do so.

Product Performance
Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on
the signal strength in your area. Your phone informs you
of the current signal strength by displaying a number of
bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars
displayed, the stronger the signal.
If you're inside a building, being near a window may give
you better reception.
If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of
searching, a Power Save feature is automatically
activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks
service availability or you can check it yourself by pressing
any key.
Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a message
displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone
returns to standby mode.
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 watts to 0.2 watts in digital
mode.
For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel
should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service
may void the warranty.

Battery Standby and Talk Time
Standby and talk times will vary depending on phone
usage patterns and conditions. Battery power
consumption depends on factors such as network
configuration, signal strength, operating temperature,
features selected, frequency of calls, and voice, data, and
other application usage patterns.
Battery Precautions.

•
•
•
38
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in
any way.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
If you use the phone near the network's base station,
it uses less power; talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network
and the parameters set by the network operator.
Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge and the type of battery and charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged

•
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation time (talk time and standby time) is
noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new
battery.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge
itself over time.
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge
your battery only with Samsung-approved chargers.
When a charger is not in use, disconnect it from the
power source. Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since overcharging may
shorten its life.
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity
of your battery: it may require cooling or warming
first.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as
in a car in summer or winter conditions, as you will
reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always
try to keep the battery at room temperature. A phone
with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work,
even when the battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries
are particularly affected by temperatures below 0 °C
(32 °F).

•
Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and liquids
contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
Do not use the phone with a wet hand. Doing so may
cause an electric shock to you or damage to the
phone.
Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas, as
its moving parts may be damaged.
Do not store the phone in hot areas. High
temperatures can shorten the life of electronic
devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain
plastics.
Do not store the phone in cold areas. When the phone
warms up to its normal operating temperature,
moisture can form inside the phone, which may
damage the phone's electronic circuit boards.
Do not drop, knock or shake the phone. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents or
strong detergents to clean the phone. Wipe it with a
soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water
solution.
Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's
moving parts and prevent proper operation.
Health and safety information
•
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental shortcircuiting can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip
or pen) causes a direct connection between the + and
- terminals of the battery (metal strips on the
battery), for example when you carry a spare battery
in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the terminals may
damage the battery or the object causing the shortcircuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in
household or business trash may be prohibited. For
safe disposal options for Li-Ion batteries, contact your
nearest Samsung authorized service center. Always
recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.

Do not put the phone in or on heating devices, such as
a microwave oven, a stove or a radiator. The phone
may explode when overheated.
When the phone or battery gets wet, the label
indicating water damage inside the phone changes
color. In this case, phone repairs are no longer
guaranteed by the manufacturer's warranty, even if
the warranty for your phone has not expired.
If your phone has a flash or light, do not use it too
close to the eyes of people or animals. This may cause
damage to their eyes.
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified
accessories may damage the phone and violate
regulations governing radio devices.
If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is not
working properly, take it to your nearest qualified
service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and
if necessary, arrange for service.
FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)
The wireless telephone industry has developed a
rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing
device users find phones that may be compatible with
their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
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.
M-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.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are
not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
Settings
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.
Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a
label located on the box.
Health and safety information
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.
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
41
Health and safety information
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.
M3
M2
T3
T2
In the above example, 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 is
synonymous for T ratings. 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 is acceptable for normal operation.
42
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.
