4 ActiveSync
4.1 Data synchronization
Some Google applications on your phone (Gmail, Calendar, and
Contacts) give you access to the same personal information that you
can add, view, and edit on your computer using Google Web
applications. This means that when you add, change, or delete your
information in any of these applications on the Web, the updated
information also appears on your phone, and vice versa. Also, if you
lose your phone or if your phone is destroyed, your personal
information is not lost and will appear, as before, on a replacement
phone.
This mirroring of information happens through over-the-air data
synchronization, or data “syncing”. Data syncing occurs in the
background and shouldn‟t ever get in your way. You‟ll know your
data is being synchronized when you see this icon in the status bar:
Because sending large amounts of data back and forth over the air
can take time and require considerable bandwidth, there are some
settings on the phone that allow you to control data sync.
Sync by application
To control synchronization for Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts, you
can do the following:
1. On the Home screen, then touch and select Settings.
2. Select Accounts & sync. When any of the applications are
synchronizing, you will see the “sync” icon . You will also see
the last time your data was synchronized.
![](/img.php?id=2312909&img=bg10.png)
16
3. By default, the personal information in Gmail, Calendar, and
Contacts will sync whenever you make a change or receive a new
message. You can change this behavior:
Auto-sync: When selected, Auto-sync will sync Gmail, Calendar, and
Contacts automatically, as you make changes or receive new
messages. When OFF, information will not be synced automatically,
although you can force sync by using the individual application
check boxes described below.
Gmail: Clear this check box to exclude Gmail from auto-sync.
Calendar: Clear this check box to exclude Calendar from auto-sync.
Contacts: Clear this check box to exclude Contacts from auto-sync.
4. Sync problems:
If you see this icon to the left of the sync check box, then there
was a temporary problem with the data synchronization. Check your
data connection and try again later.

SMS messages are also know as “text” messages and can each be
around 160 characters. If you continue to type after the limit is

than one message. These are called “concatenated” messages.
MMS messages are also known as “multimedia” or “picture”
messages and can contain text, picture, audio, and video files.
When you compose a message, the phone will automatically convert
a text message into a multimedia message as soon as you add a
21
subject or an attachment, or if you address the message using an
email address rather than a phone number.

message size before you download.

SAR
This Model Meets International Guidelines for Exposure to
Radio Waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves recommended by international
36
guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include
safety margins designed to assure the protection of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for
mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this
device when tested at the ear was** W/kg per 10 gram of
tissue. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they
can be used in other positions, such as on the body as
described in this user guide.
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest
transmitting power the actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that indicated above. This is
due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to
ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the
network.
The World Health Organization has stated that present
scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note
that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can do so
by limiting the length of calls or using a 'hands-free' device
to keep the mobile phone away from the head and body.
Additional Information can be found on the websites of the
World Health Organization

1. 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.
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance 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 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
38
from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
SAR Information Statement
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for
wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are
conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone 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. Before a phone
39
model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model
phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.271W/Kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.259W/Kg(Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). The maximum scaled SAR in hotspot mode
is 1.259W/Kg.While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The
FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RFexposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone is on file with the FCC
and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: ZSW-AX524-AX660 Additional information on
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA)
web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United
States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-stantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public
and to account for any variations in measurements.

Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To
comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 15mm must be maintained between
the user‟s body and the handset, including the antenna.
Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used
by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements
may not comply with RF exposure requirements and should
be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
