It also contains information about how to use the device safely. Read this information carefully before using the device. WATERPROOF CASING USB and Headset jack covers must be securely in place, to ensure the device is waterproof. ELECTRONIC DEVICE Power off this device if youre in a situation where using the device is prohibited. Do not use your device if it could cause damage or interference with electronic devices. MEDICAL DEVICE Follow rules and regulations set forth by hospitals and health care facilities. Do not use this device when it is prohibited. Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm be maintained between a device and a pacemaker to prevent potential interference with the pacemaker. If you have a pacemaker, use the device on the opposite side of the pacemaker and do not carry the device in your front pocket. POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE Power off the device in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and comply with all signs and instructions. Areas that may have potentially explosive atmospheres include the areas where it is advised to turn off a vehicle engine. Triggering of sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or a fire, resulting in bodily injuries or even death. Do not turn on the device at refuelling points such as service stations. Comply with restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas, and chemical plants. In addition, adhere to restrictions in areas where blasting operations are in progress. Before using your device, watch out for areas that have potentially explosive atmospheres that are often, but not always, clearly marked. Such locations include areas below the deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Ask the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) whether this device can be safely used in their vicinity.

HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY (HAC) REGULATIONS FOR WIRELESS DEVICES This device has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids, with some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be newer wireless technologies used in the device that have not been tested yet for use with hearing 30 aids. It is important to try the different features on your device thoroughly and in different locations whilst using a hearing aid or cochlear implant to determine if there is any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the device manufacturer for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have any questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established requirements for digital wireless mobile devices to be compatible with hearing aids and other hearing assistive devices. The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system to assist hearing device users, reviewing the compatibility of mobile devices with hearing devices. The ratings are not guaranteed. Results will vary depending on the users hearing device and hearing loss. If a users hearing devices happens to be vulnerable to interference, the user may not be able to use a rated phone device successfully. Testing the mobile device with a hearing device is the best way to evaluate it if it suitable for a users personal needs. The FCC has adopted HAC rules for digital wireless phones. These rules require certain devices to be tested and rated under the American National Standard Institute (ANSI) C63.19-2011 hearing aid compatibility standards. The ANSI standard for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings:
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labelled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to work better with a hearing devices telecoil (T Switch or Telephone Switch) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.) The tested M-Rating and T-Rating for this device (FCC ID: ZL5S48C), M3 and T3. EMERGENCY CALL This device can be used for emergency calls in the service area. The connection, however, cannot be guaranteed in all conditions. The device should not be relied on solely for essential communications. FCC STATEMENT 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, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. NOTE:
The country code selection is for a non-US model only and is not available to all US models. Per FCC regulation, all WiFi products marketed in the US must be fixed to US operation channels only. The device 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 during an installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are 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 from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult your retailer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications not specifically approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the your authority to operate the equipment. 31 RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION (SAR) Your Cat S48c meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves. The device is designed and manufactured to not exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. For body worn operation, your device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The highest reported SAR values under the FCC regulatory for the phone are listed below:
Head SAR: 0.98 W/kg, Body SAR: 1.06 W/kg, Wireless Router SAR: 1.19 W/kg 32 DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING INFORMATION This symbol on the device (and any included batteries) indicates that they should not be disposed of as normal household garbage.
