• Ensure to close the audio connector and SIM slot properly. This will prevent the deposit of
water droplets on the connectors, when the phone is immersed in water.
• Water droplets may condense under the display cover if the phone is immersed in water
with signicant drop in temperature. This does not indicate water leakage. The droplets will
disappear at room temperature.
The Sonim XP8 is dust-resistant, rugged and shock-resistant. However, it is not dust-proof or
unbreakable if subjected to overwhelming impact. For best results and long product life, one
should protect the Sonim XP8 from salt water, dust and strong impacts.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless
telephones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear
implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually
cause interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants,
digital wireless phones sometimes do because of
electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna,
backlight, or other components. Your phone is compliant
with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19- 2011). 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 in nding 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.
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.
• 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 be more usable with
a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone
Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/
higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
Your phone meets the M4/T4 level rating.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you
nd this rating. For more information about FCC Hearing
Aid Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/
dro.

Safety Guidelines
Avoid High Temperatures
Leaving the device in hot or cold places, such as in a
closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. For the best results,
try to use the device between -20°C and +55°C (-4°F
and 131°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.
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
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.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements
for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government.
The exposure standard for wireless device employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specic Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/
kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device
transmitting at its highest certied power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest certied power level, the actual SAR level
of the device while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the device is designed
Federal Communication Commission Interference (FCC) Statement
![](/img.php?id=3707657&img=bg3c.png)
60
to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the poser required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model device as reported
to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.37 W/
kg and when worn on the body, as described in this
user guide, is 1.39 W/kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among device models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels
of various devices and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this model device is on le with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section
of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
WYPPG4032.
For body worn operation, this device has been tested
and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with
an accessory that contains no metal and be positioned a
minimum of 1cm from the body. Use of other accessories
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and
are not holding the device at the ear, position the handset
a minimum of 0cm from your body when the device is
switched on.
