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 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.
120
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.

properly made.
121
Problem
Possible causes
Possible solution
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.
Contact the dealer to
change 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.

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
126
of the United States, Industry Canada of Canada.
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 0.4 inches (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,
and 1.6W/kg by Industry Canada.
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-Z917VL.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage
against the head is 0.48 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.00
W/kg.
127
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 0.4 inches (10 mm) between the unit
and the human body. Carry this device at least 0.4 inches
(10 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 0.4 inches (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.

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
129
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 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
130
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/T4 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 .

Radio Frequency Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturers to
determine if the operation of your phone may interfere with the
operation of your medical devices.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile phone and
a pacemaker to avoid 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 depends on the type of the 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.
