Please read and understand the following safety guidelines before you use the phone. These guidelines provide details
to enable you to operate your phone safely and conform to any legal requirements regarding the use of cellular phones.
Do not to use the phone at a refuelling point. Observe restrictions when using radio equipment at
fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
Electrical interference may obstruct the use of your phone. Observe restrictions in hospitals and
near medical equipment.
Switch off your cellular phone when in an aircraft. Wireless phones can cause interference or danger
to an aircraft. In an aircraft, the phone can be used in flight mode.
Do not expose the battery to high temperatures (in excess of 60°C).
Adhere to road safety laws. Do not hold/use a phone while you are driving; find a safe place to stop
first. Do not speak into a hands-free microphone while you are driving.
Avoid using the phone in close proximity to personal medical devices,
such as pacemakers and hearing aids.

damage to your phone.
The symbol of the crossed-out wheeled bin indicates that within the countries in the European
Union, this product, and any enhancements marked with this symbol, can not be disposed as
unsorted waste but must be taken to separate collection at their end-of-life.
Your Safety Guidelines
10
Ensure that only qualied personnel install or repair your phone.
The Sonim XP3300 FORCE is water-proof and can be submerged to 2 metres for 30 minutes.
• Ensure to properly close the rubber cover of the charging connector and audio connector, to
avoid deposits of water drops on these connectors, when the phone is immersed in water.
• Water droplets may condense under the display cover if the phone is immersed in water
with signicant drop in temperature. This does not indicate water leakage. The droplets will
disappear at room temperature.
The Sonim XP3300 FORCE is dust-resistant, rugged and shock-resistant. However, it is not dust-
proof or un-breakable if subjected to overwhelming impact. For best results and long product life,
one should protect the Sonim XP3300 FORCE from salt water, dust and strong impacts.
Make back-up copies of important information stored in your phone or maintain a written record.
Your Safety Guidelines

Battery Performance
A rechargeable battery powers your device. Use the
battery only for its intended purpose. Never use any
charger or battery that is damaged. If the battery is
completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before
the charging indicator appears on the display or before
any calls can be made. The full performance of a new
battery is achieved only after three to four complete
charge and discharge cycles. The battery can be charged
and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually
wear out. Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and
the device when not in use. Ensure that you do not leave
the fully charged battery connected to a charger. If left
unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over
time.
Battery Replacement
When the talk and standby times are noticeably shorter
than normal, replace the battery with an original Sonim
battery. If a replacement battery is being used for the rst
time or if the battery has not been used for a prolonged
period, it may be necessary to connect the charger and
then disconnect and reconnect it to begin charging the
battery.
Avoid Short Circuit
Do not short-circuit the battery. An accidental short-
circuit can occur when a metallic object such as a coin,
clip, or pen causes direct connection of the positive (+)
and negative (-) terminals of the battery. (These look
like metal strips on the battery.) This might happen, for
example, when you carry a spare battery in your pocket
or purse. A short-circuit at the terminals may damage the
battery or the connecting object.
Avoid High Temperatures
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, will reduce
the capacity and lifetime of the battery. For the best
results, try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C
(59°F and 77°F). A device with a hot or cold battery
may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully
charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in
temperatures well below freezing.
Battery Disposal
Do not dispose off batteries in a re as they may explode.
Batteries may also explode if damaged. Dispose of
batteries according to local regulations and recycle when
possible. Do not dispose as household waste. Do not
dismantle, open or shred cells or batteries. In the event of
a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact
with the skin or eyes. In the event of leak or a hazard
seek medical help immediately.
Personal Medical Devices
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac
pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please
avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker, for
example in your breast pocket. When using the mobile
phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between
the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of
interference is limited. If you suspect that interference
is taking place, immediately turn off your mobile phone.
Contact your cardiologist for more information. For
other medical devices, consult your physician and the
manufacturer of the device. Comply with instructions to
switch off the device or deactivate the RF transmitter
Your Safety Guidelines

Your Safety Guidelines
function when required, especially when posted in
hospitals and aeroplanes. Equipment used in these
places may be sensitive to radio waves emitted from the
device and adversely affect their operation. Also, observe
restrictions at gas stations or other areas with ammable
atmosphere or when close to electro-explosive devices.
Child Safety
Do not allow children to play with your mobile phone or
its accessories. Keep it out of their reach. They could
hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage
the mobile phone or accessories. Your mobile phone and
its accessories may contain small parts, which could be
detached and create a choking hazard.
Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot
guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore
you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for
essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all
cellular networks, or when certain network services and/
or mobile phone features are in use. Check with your
local service provider.
SAR Information
The Sonim XP3300 FORCE has been certified in
compliance with the Government’s requirements for
exposure to Radio Waves.
When communicating over the wireless network, the
mobile phone emits via the radio frequency waves low
levels of radio energy. The Specic Absorption Rate, or
SAR, is the amount of RF energy absorbed by the body
while using the phone and is expressed in watts/kilogram
(W/kg).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed
by scientic organizations, for example, ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers Inc.). These guidelines establish
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general
population.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods
with the phone transmitting at its highest certied power
level in all used frequency bands.
SAR Data Information for residents in countries that
have adopted the SAR limit recommended by the
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP). For example, European Union,
Japan, Brazil and New Zealand.
The limit recommended by ICNIRP is 2 W/kg averaged
over ten (10) gram of tissue.
The highest SAR value for the Sonim XP3300-E-R1
phone when tested by Sonim for use:
• By the ear is 0.768 W/kg (10g).
• Worn on the body is 0.974 W/kg (10 g) provided that
the phone is used with a non-metallic accessory
with the handset at least 1.5 cm from the body, or
with the original Sonim accessory intended for this
phone and worn on the body.
13
Your Safety Guidelines
SAR Data Information for residents in the United
States and Canada.
In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for
mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public
in the US, it must be tested and certied by the Federal
Communications Commission (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 (that is, by the ear and worn
on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for Sonim XP3300-A-R1 with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones, all mobile phones granted
an FCC equipment authorization meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
The highest SAR value for the Sonim XP3300-A-R1
phone when tested by Sonim for use:
• By the ear is 0.782 W/kg (1 g).
• Worn on the body is 1.350 W/kg (1 g).
For body-worn operation, this phone meets FCC RF
exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-
metallic accessory with the handset at least 1.5 cm from
the body, or with the original Sonim accessory intended
for this phone and worn on the body. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Sonim XP3300-A-R1 is a Hearing Aid Compatible phone,
designed to meet the needs of users with hearing
disabilities and compliant with the relevant Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) requirements.
HAC Rating
The FCC has created a rating system for cellular phones
regarding their HAC-related performance. This rating
helps consumers with hearing disabilities to nd phones
that will work well with their hearing aid devices. The
HAC rating and measurement procedure are described
in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
C63.19:2007.
ANSI C63.19 contains two rating standards: an “M” rating
from 1 to 4 for hearing aids operating in microphone
mode, and a “T” rating from 1 to 4 for hearing aids
operating in telecoil mode.
M-Rating M-rating stands for Microphone rating and
indicates the amount of reduction of RF interference
between the telephone and the hearing aid in acoustic
coupling mode (also called microphone mode).
Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and
generate less interference to hearing devices set in
microphone mode.
36
Settings
T-Rating stands for Telecoil rating and represents
inductive coupling with hearing aids that are operating
in telecoil mode. A telecoil is a small piece of tightly
wrapped wire, built into some hearing aids. While the
microphone of a hearing aid picks up all sounds, the
telecoil will only pick up an electromagnetic signal from
the telephone. Thus, users of telecoil-equipped hearing
aids are able to communicate over the telephone without
the amplication of unwanted background noise.
Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
generate less interference to hearing devices set in
telecoil mode.
A combination of M-rating and T-rating denes the
nal HAC rating and is a deciding factor in selecting
cellular phones for people with hearing problems. A HAC
compliant phone could be rated:
• M3/T3
• M4/T3 (or M3/T4)
• M4/T4
These ratings assist hearing device users to nd
phones that are compatible with their hearing devices.
Ratings are shown on the phone’s box or label. The
ratings are not guarantees for suitability. The results
vary depending on the individual’s hearing loss and the
immunity characteristics of the used hearing device, i.e.
its resistance to interference. The best way to evaluate
the suitability of the phone is to try it with the intended
hearing aid device.
Sonim XP3300-A-R1 has been tested for hearing aid
device compatibility and complies with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) requirements. Sonim
XP3300-A-R1 is rated M3/T3.
HAC Settings
To enable coupling with a hearing aid device operating in
telecoil mode, select Menu > Settings > Phone Settings
> Hearing Aid > On. Once HAC is enabled, the “HAC”
symbol is displayed on the Home screen. Select Off to
disable this feature.
Menu > Settings > Phone Settings > Hearing Aid >
Off is also the setting providing acoustics coupling with
hearing aid device operating in microphone mode.
While using the mobile phone for voice calls
with hearing aid, slightly adjust the position
of the phone against the ear to reduce the
interference and to give better voice quality.
Network Settings
Select Menu > Settings > Network settings. The
following network settings are displayed:

A-GPS
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a Global
Navigation Satellite System. It uses satellites that transmit
precise microwave signals, which enable GPS receivers
to determine their current location and time.
When an user accesses an application that requires GPS,
then GPS is turned on automatically. After the application
is closed, GPS is turned off automatically.
The GPS relies on satellite signal to calculate position.
Under conditions of poor satellite reception (that is,
under a tree, bad weather, and so on) standalone GPS
receivers take long time (sometimes a few minutes) to
provide location information to the users. The special
feature Assisted GPS (A-GPS) available in Sonim XP3300
FORCE speeds up the phone’s process of calculating
the position irrespective of the signal conditions. When
A-GPS is enabled, the phone automatically downloads
the latest satellite related information (Ephemeris data)
through GPRS. This information is used along with the
satellite signals to calculate the position (Downloading of
Ephemeris data may result in network charges).
To congure the A-GPS on your phone, do the following:
1. Procure the internet access point and A-GPS server
information from the service provider or operator.
2. Select Menu > Settings > AGPS settings.
3. Select Receiver > On.
4. Select AGPS settings, select AGPS > On. In AGPS
proles, select the required prole and click Edit.
