Troubleshooting
If you encounter problems while using the phone, or if it performs
abnormally, you can refer to 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 cannot
effectivel
y
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
The network link quality is
poor on the part of your
service provider.
End the call and
dial again. You may
be switched to a
better-quality
network link or
phone line.
The quality of the phone line
that you are calling is poor.
End the call and

be switched to a
better-quality

temperature.
The contact between the
charging jack and charger is
poor.
Check all
connectors to
ensure that 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
signalling is weak,
temporarily power
off the phone.
The battery is depleted. In
high temperature
environments, battery life
w
ill be shortened.
Contact the dealer
to change a new
battery.

Problem
Possible causes
Possible solution
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.

FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR)
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 United States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in
positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no
separation, and near the body with the separation of 10 mm. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the device 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.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of
measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. This device is complied with
SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE
C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement
methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528.
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: SRQ-VFD510S-D.
The FCC ID can be found according to the fllowing introduction:
Setting-About Phone-Regulatory Labels.
The e-label is a screen shot on the phone.
73
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the
head is 0.572 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.034W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation
distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this
device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure
level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support bodyworn
operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain
metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this
device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which
contains metal, was not tested and certified, and use such body-worn
accessory should be avoided.
FCC Regulations
This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This mobile phone 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.
74
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
