 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 41   C h a p t e r    6   Questions & Answers If  you  encounter  problems  while  using  the  phone,  or  if  it  performs  erratically,  you  can  consult  the information in the chart below. If your particular problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, contact the dealer where you purchased the phone. Problem Possible causes Possible solution Poor reception • The network signal is too weak at your current location, for example, in a basement or near a tall building, because wireless transmissions can not effectively reach it. Move to a location where the network signal can be properly received. • The network is busy at the current time (for example, during peak times, there may be too much network traffic to handle additional calls). Avoid using the phone at such times, or try again after waiting a short time. • You are too far away from a base station for your service provider. You can request a service area map from your service provider. Echo or noise • Poor network trunk quality on the part of your service provider. Press End Key and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network trunk or phone line. • Poor local telephone line quality. Press End Key and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network trunk or phone line. Unable to select certain features. Your service provider does not support these features, or you have not applied for services that provide these features. Contact your service provider. Battery will not charge. • The battery or battery charger is damaged. Contact the dealer. • The phone‟s temperature is below 0°C or higher than 45 °C. Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extremes of temperature. • Poor contact between the battery and charger. Check all connectors to make sure all connections have been properly made. Shortened standby time • The standby time is related to your service provider system configuration. The same phone used with different service providers‟ systems will not provide exactly the same length of standby time. If you are located in an area where signaling is weak, temporarily power off the phone. • The battery is depleted. In high-temperature environments, battery life will be shortened. Use a new battery. • If you are not able to connect to the network, the phone will continue to send out signals as it attempts to locate a base station. Doing so consumes battery power and will consequently shorten standby time. Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporarily turn off your phone. You cannot switch your phone on. Battery power has been depleted. Recharge the phone's battery.

   F870E User Manual 46 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION C h a p t e r    10   Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device Your Model name:F870E device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to www.zte.com    When  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 ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing-device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated have a label on the box. Your Model name:F870E has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has an M3 rating.  These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing  device  and  the  degree  of  your  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 with 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 contain telecoils.) The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings similar to those of phones. Ask your hearing health-care professional for the rating of your hearing aid.      Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing  device.  The  more  immune  your  hearing  aid  is,  the  less  likely  you  are  to  experience interference noise from wireless devices.   For  additional  information  about  the  FCC's  actions  with  regard  to  hearing  aid  compatible wireless devices and other steps the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to telecommunications services, please go to www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.

   F870E User Manual 48 Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION RF Exposure Information (SAR)  This mobile phone meets the government‟s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This phone 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 mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific 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  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 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 phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is  0.677  W/kg  and  when  worn  on  the  body,  as  described  in  this  user  guide,  is  1.24  W/kg (Body-worn  measurements  differ among  phone  models,  depending  upon  available  accessories and FCC requirements.)  While  there  may  be  differences  between  the  SAR  levels  of  various  phones  and  at  various positions, they all meet the government requirement.  The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model  phone  is  on  file  with  the  FCC  and  can  be  found  under  the  Display  Grant  section  of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: Q78-F870E.  For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 2.5 cm from the body.    Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 2.5 cm from your body when the phone is switched on.
