31
Protecting Your Phone With Encryption
You can encrypt all the data on your phone: your accounts,
application data, music and other media, downloaded information,
and so on. If you do, you must draw an unlock pattern, 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 pattern, PIN or password you set for
encryption is controlled by the system administrator.
Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
●
Set a screen lock pattern, PIN or password.
●
Charge the battery.
●
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 >
phone.
> Settings > Security > Encrypt
2. Read the information about encryption carefully.
The ENCRYPT PHONE button is dimmed if your battery is
32
not charged or your phone's 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. Draw your screen lock pattern or enter your PIN or password.
5. Touch ENCRYPT PHONE again.
The encryption process starts. Encryption can take an hour or
more, during which time your phone may restart several times.
When encryption is completed, you're prompted to draw the
unlock pattern, or enter your PIN or password.
Subsequently you must draw your unlock pattern, or enter your
PIN or password each time you power on your phone in order to
decrypt it.
Protecting Your Phone With Screen
Pinning
You can use the screen pinning feature to keep an app in view,
so others cannot switch to other apps or access your personal
information.

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
165
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
radiated 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
166
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
FCC Note:
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user‘s authority to operate the
equipment.
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
15 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
167
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
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
168
after searching on
FCC ID: SRQ-Z852.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for
usage against the head is 0.57 W/kg, for usage near
the body is 1.11 W/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 15 mm between the unit
and the human body. Carry this device at least 15
mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure
level compliant or lower to the reported level. To
support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or
holsters, which do not contain metallic components,
to maintain a separation of 15 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
169
be avoided.
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 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
170
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/T3 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.
