Enhanced 9-1-1 (E911) Information
This phone features an embedded Global
Positioning System (GPS) chip necessary
for utilizing E911 emergency location
services where available.
When you place an emergency 9-1-1 call,

including availability and access to satellite
signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or
more to determine and report your
approximate location.
Important: Always report your location
to the 9-1-1 operator when placing an
emergency call. Some designated
emergency call takers, known as Public
Safety Answering Points (PSAPs), may
not be equipped to receive GPS
location information from your phone.

community are currently working to
resolve this.

Maintaining Safe Use of
and Access to Your
Phone
Do Not Rely on Your Phone for
Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals,
which cannot guarantee connection in all
conditions. Therefore you should never rely
solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communication (e.g., medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible on all
cellular networks or when certain network
services or mobile phone features are in
use. Check with your local service provider
for details.

Using Your Phone While
Driving
Talking on your phone while driving (or
operating the phone without a hands-free
device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Laws vary as to specific restrictions.
Remember that safety always comes first.

Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently,
always follow any special regulations in a
given area. Turn your phone off in areas
User Manual

where use is forbidden or when it may
cause interference or danger.

Medical Devices
If you have a medical device, including an
implantable medical device such as a
pacemaker or defibrillator, consult your
healthcare provider and the device
manufacturer’s directions before using this
mobile phone.
Persons with implantable medical devices:
● Should always keep the mobile phone
more than six (6) inches from the
implantable medical device when the
mobile phone is turned ON.
● Should not carry the mobile phone in the
breast pocket.
● Should use the ear opposite the
implantable medical device to minimize
the potential for interference.
● Should turn OFF the mobile phone
immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.

Using Your Phone Near Other
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals.
However, RF signals from wireless phones
may affect inadequately shielded electronic
equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded electronic
operating systems or entertainment
Important Safety Information

systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or their representative to
determine if these systems are adequately
shielded from external RF signals. Also
check with the manufacturer regarding any
equipment that has been added to your

regulations and always follow the flight
crew’s instructions concerning the use of
your phone.

Turning Off Your Phone in
Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations,
turn your phone off when in a blasting area
or in other areas with signs indicating twoway radios should be turned off.
Construction crews often use remotecontrol RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you are in any
area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone
and accessories could generate sparks.
93

Sparks can cause an explosion or fire,
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
These areas are often, but not always,
clearly marked. They include:
● Fueling areas such as gas stations.
● Below deck on boats.
● Fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities.
● Areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
● Any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
Note: Never transport or store
flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your
vehicle that contains your phone or
accessories.

Restricting Children’s Access
to Your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow
children to play with it as they could hurt
themselves and others, damage the phone
or could potentially cost you money.

Waterproof Capability
Your Hydro WAVE is waterproof and meets
IPX5 and IPX7 standards, immersible for
up to 30 minutes at a depth not exceeding
one meter (about 3.28 feet). Exposing your
phone to water outside these limits or not
94

following the precautions can result in water
damage.
To ensure that your phone maintains
waterproof capability, the following
precautions must be observed.
● Make sure the SIM/microSD card holder
cover is properly sealed by squeezing
around the edges of the cover. The
charger/USB port and headset jack
ports do not have covers because they
are waterproof.
● Do not spray or immerse your phone in
liquids other than fresh water or tap
water.
● Do not expose your phone to water
heated in excess of 104°F (40°C), or to
liquids other than water, such as
detergent, beverages, or chlorinated or
treated water. Should your phone be
accidentally exposed to other liquids,
rinse the phone gently in clean fresh
water.
● Your phone is inoperable under water
and should be dried as quickly as
possible when wet.
● Do not use the charger/USB port for
charging, data transmission, etc. until
the phone is completely dry.
If your phone gets wet:
Water lodged in the headset jack may
cause the phone to falsely detect an
inserted headset (in which case the
loudspeaker and/or earpiece audio will be
disabled) until the water is removed. Water
User Manual

in the microphone port may affect outbound
audio quality. These are temporary
conditions and will subside once the phone
is dry.
1. Do not open the SIM/microSD card
holder cover as this may allow water to
get inside the sealed portion of the
phone.
2. Wipe the phone surfaces with a dry
clean cloth.
3. Water in the phone’s open ports may
affect sound quality and should be
removed with puffs of air directly into the
ports. Phone audio may not operate
properly until ports are dry. Apply a dry
clean cloth to the open areas and
crevices to remove the moisture left on
the phone: microphones; speakers;
power button; volume button; headset
jack; and charger/USB port.
4. Repeat the process until the phone is
completely dry.

Charging
● Dry your phone with a clean cloth before
charging.
● Do not touch the charger, charging
cable, or charger/USB port with wet
hands. Doing so may cause electric
shock, injury, or product failure.
● Do not charge your phone in a wet or
damp place, such as in a bathroom or

Important Safety Information

Using Your Phone With
a Hearing Aid Device
When some wireless phones are used with
certain hearing devices (including hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may
detect a noise which can interfere with the
effectiveness of the hearing device.
Some hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference noise, and
phones also vary in the amount of
interference noise they may generate. ANSI
standard C63.19 was developed to provide
a standardized means of measuring both
wireless phone and hearing devices to
determine usability rating categories for
both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile
phones to assist hearing device users in
finding phones that may be compatible with
their hearing device. Not all phones have
been rated for compatibility with hearing
devices. Phones that have been rated have
a label located on the box. Your Hydro
WAVE has an M4 and a T4 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results
will vary depending on the user’s hearing
device and the individual’s type and degree
of hearing loss. If a hearing device is
particularly vulnerable to interference noise;
even a phone with a higher rating may still
cause unacceptable noise levels in the
hearing device. Trying out the phone with
your hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
95

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet
FCC requirements for hearing aid
compatibility and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than
unrated phones. (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.)
Note: 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.
Hearing aid devices may also be measured
for immunity to interference noise from
wireless phones and should have ratings
similar to phones. Ask your hearing
healthcare professional for the rating of
your hearing aid. Add the rating of your
96

hearing aid and your phone to determine
probable usability:
● Any combined rating equal to or greater
than six offers excellent use.
● Any combined rating equal to five is
considered normal use.
● Any combined rating equal to four is
considered usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an
M3 phone, you will have a combined rating
of six for “excellent use.” This is
synonymous for T ratings.
More information about hearing aid
compatibility may be found at:
www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and
www.accesswireless.org.

Getting the Best Hearing Device
Experience With Your Phone
To further minimize interference, move the
phone around to find the point with least
interference.

Caring for the Battery
Note: The battery cannot be removed
from the phone. For replacing or
disposing the battery, contact a

Radio Frequency (RF)
Energy
Understanding How Your
Phone Operates
Your phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives
and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals.
Your phone is designed to transmit just
enough RF power to reach the network.
The system handling your call controls the
97

RF power level. Depending on network
conditions, your phone may operate at an
actual SAR level below the maximum value
specified. Your phone is designed not to
exceed the recommended international
guidelines for limits on RF exposure.

Knowing Radio Frequency
Safety
The design of your phone complies with
updated NCRP standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the
American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982
standard for safety levels with respect to
human exposure to RF signals.
More than 120 scientists, engineers and
physicians from universities, government
health agencies and industries developed
this updated standard after reviewing the
available body of research. In 1993, the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted this updated standard in a
regulation. In August 1996, the FCC
adopted hybrid standard consisting of the
existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the
guidelines published by the National
Council of Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP).

Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines, always use an
appropriate accessory if using the phone
for body worn operations. Accessories used
with this phone for body-worn operations
must not contain any metallic components
and must provide at least 0.39 inches (1.0
centimeter) separation distance between
the user’s body and the phone, including
antennas. Body worn accessories that do
not meet these requirements may not
comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements and should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure,
visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

Specific Absorption Rates
(SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative
amount of RF energy absorbed into the
head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of
an extensive testing, measuring and
calculation process. It does not represent
how much RF the phone emits. All phone
models are tested at their highest value in
strict laboratory settings. But when in
operation, the SAR of a phone can be
substantially less than the level reported to
the FCC. This is because of a variety of
factors including its proximity to a base
station antenna, phone design and other
factors. What is important to remember is
that each phone meets strict federal
User Manual

guidelines. Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard,
which incorporates a substantial margin of
safety. As stated above, variations in SAR
values between different model phones do
not mean variations in safety. SAR values
at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg
are considered safe for use by the public.

FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio
Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: V65C6740
The FCC ID number can be found printed
on the label under the back cover. To find
the FCC ID number, remove the back cover.

The highest reported SAR values of the
Hydro WAVE are:
Head: 0.66 W/kg
Body-worn: 1.31 W/kg
Hotspot: 1.31 W/kg
Phone models may have different versions
and more than one value. Changes in
design or components may occur over time
and some changes could affect SAR values.
More information on the phone’s SAR can
be found on the following FCC website:
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.

You can also find the FCC ID number
through the Settings menu. From the Home
screen, tap Apps > Settings > About
phone > Compliance information. The
FCC ID number is displayed on the screen.
