Protecting Your Phone With Encryption You can encrypt all the data on your phone: Google Accounts, application data, music and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or a password each time you power on your phone.  WARNING!   Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an unencrypted phone is to perform a factory data reset which erases all your data. Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your system administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set for encryption is controlled by the system administrator. Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:  Set a lock screen PIN or password.  Charge the battery.
 29  Keep the phone connected to the charger.  Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process. You must not interrupt it or you will lose some or all of your data. When you're ready to turn on encryption: 1.  Touch the Home Key >   > Settings > Security > Encrypt phone. 2.  Read the information about encryption carefully.   The Encrypt phone button is dimmed if your battery is not charged or your phone is not plugged in. If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch the Back Key.  WARNING!   If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data. 3.  Touch Encrypt phone. 4.  Enter your lock screen PIN or password and touch Next. 5.  Touch Encrypt phone again. The encryption process starts and displays its progress. Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times. When encryption is completed, you're prompted to enter your PIN or password. Subsequently you must enter your PIN or password each time you power on your phone in order to decrypt it.

 139 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 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.
 140 Problem Possible causes Possible solution Echo or noise Poor network link quality 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. Poor local telephone line quality. End the call and dial again. You may be switched to a better-quality network link 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 not charging The battery or battery charger is damaged. Contact the dealer. The phone’s temperature is below 32 °F or higher than 113 °F. Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extremes of temperature.
 141 Problem Possible causes Possible solution Poor contact between the battery and charger. 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 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.
 142 Problem Possible causes Possible solution Cannot turn your phone on Battery power has been depleted. Recharge the phone’s battery. SIM card error SIM card malfunction or damage. Take the SIM card to your service provider for testing. SIM card inserted improperly. Insert the SIM card properly. Debris on the SIM card contacts. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the SIM card contacts. Unable to connect to the network SIM card invalid. Contact your service provider. You are not within the network’s service area. Check the service area with your service provider. Poor signal. Move to an open space, or if you are inside a building, move closer to a window.
 143 Problem Possible causes Possible solution Cannot answer incoming calls You have activated the Call barring feature. Go to Settings > Call settings > Call Barring Settings, and then select Deactive All. You cannot make outgoing calls. You have activated the Call barring feature. Go to Settings > Call settings > Call Barring Settings, and then select Deactive All. You have activated the Fixed dial numbers feature. Go to Settings > Call settings > Fixed Dialing Numbers and disable it. PIN Code blocked You have entered an incorrect PIN code three consecutive times. Contact your service provider. If the service provider provides the SIM card’s PUK code, use the PUK code to unlock the SIM card.
 144 Problem Possible causes Possible solution Unable to enter information into the phonebook The phonebook’s memory is full. Delete unnecessary data from the contacts. Phone crashes, reboots, freezes, or cannot be powered on Some third-party software is not compatible with your phone. Uninstall the software that may be causing the problem. Upgrade the phone software.

Keep your phone at least 0.59 inches away from your ear or body while making calls.  Your phone may produce a bright or flashing light.  Small parts may cause choking.  Don’t dispose of your phone in fire.  Your phone can produce a loud sound.  To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.  Avoid contact with anything magnetic.  Avoid extreme temperatures.
 146  Keep away from pacemakers and other electronic medical devices.  Avoid contact with liquids. Keep your phone dry.  Turn off when asked to in hospitals and medical facilities.  Don’t take your phone apart.  Turn off when told to in aircrafts and airports.  Only use approved accessories.  Turn off when near explosive materials or liquids.  Don’t rely on your phone for emergency communications.   Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure 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 mobile devices 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 device transmitting at its highest certified
 147 power level in all tested frequency bands. 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 device 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 highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.34 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.44 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available enhancements 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 device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on: FCC ID: SRQ-Z667T 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 that positions the handset a minimum of 0.39 inches from the body. Use of other
 148 enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the device at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 0.39 inches from your body when the device is switched on. FCC Compliance This device 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.  CAUTION:   Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.  NOTE:   This equipment 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
 149 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.  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. 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
 150 rating system for wireless 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 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
 151 better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)     Your phone meets the T3/M3 level rating. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this rating. For more information about FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
