Charging the battery

Powering your phone on/off

Your phone’s battery should have enough power for the phone to turn on,
find a signal, and make a few calls. You should fully charge the battery as
soon as possible.

after charging the phone for at least 20 minutes. Contact customer
service if you still cannot power on the phone after prolonged charging.

Locking/Unlocking the screen and keys

Extending the battery life

Active applications, screen brightness levels, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi usage, and
GPS functionality can drain your battery. You can follow these helpful tips to
conserve your battery power:
• Use the Battery saver feature in Settings.
• Reduce the screen backlight time.
• Lower the screen brightness.
• Turn auto-sync, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth off when not in use.
• Disable the GPS function when not in use. Most applications using this
function will periodically query the GPS satellites for your current location;
each query drains your battery.

Troubleshooting

Problem

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

Poor reception

Possible causes

Possible solution

The network signal is too weak
at your current location (for
example, in a basement or near
a tall building) because wireless
transmissions cannot 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.

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.

Radio frequency (RF) energy
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 (0.4 in.). 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 1.6 W/kg.
This device is in compliance 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-Z835.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is
0.76 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.12 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and
at various positions, they all meet the government requirements.
126

FOR YOUR SAFETY

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 with or
lower than the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose belt
clips or holsters that 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 that contains metal
was not tested and certified, and use of such body-worn accessory should
be avoided.

FCC compliance
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.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

127

• 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.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer 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.

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 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. These ratings are
not guaranteed. 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.
128
FOR YOUR SAFETY

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 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.)
Your Z851 has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility and has
an M3/T3 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.

potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on
the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.

Hearing aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience
interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby. The level
of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance
from the interference source. Increasing the separation between them may
reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer
to discuss alternatives.

Medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine
if operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your
medical device.
