If your particular problem cannot be resolved using the information in the chart, contact the dealer where you purchased the phone . Problem Poor reception Echo or noise Possible causes The network signal is too weak at your current location, for example, in a basement or near a tall building, because wireless transmissions can not effectively reach it . The network is busy at the current time (for example, during peak times, there may be too much network traffic to handle additional calls) . You are too far away from a base station for your service provider . Poor network link quality on the part of your service provider . Poor local telephone line quality . Unable to select certain features Your service provider does not support these features, or you have not applied for services that provide these features . Possible solution Move to a location where the network signal can be properly received . Avoid using the phone at such times, or try again after waiting a short time . You can request a service area map from your service provider . End the call and dial again . You may be switched to a better-
quality network link or phone line . End the call and dial again . You may be switched to a better-
quality network link or phone line . Contact your service provider . Problem Battery not charging Shortened standby time Possible causes The battery or battery charger is damaged . The phones temperature is below 32F (0C) or higher than 113F (45C) . Poor contact between the battery and charger . 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 . The battery is depleted . In high-
temperature environments, battery life will be shortened . 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 . Possible solution Contact the dealer . Adjust the battery charging environment to avoid extremes of temperature . Check all connectors to make sure all connections have been properly made . If you are located in an area where signaling is weak, temporarily power off the phone . Use a new battery . Change your location to one where the network is accessible, or temporarily turn off your phone . Cannot turn your phone on Battery power has been depleted .

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 . 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 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 from that to which the receiver is connected . Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help . Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment . The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter . 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 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 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 using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands . 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-Z968 . 112 FOR YOUR SAFETY FOR YOUR SAFETY 113 For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 0.59 W/kg, for usage near the body is 0.95 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 10 mm between the unit and the human body . Carry this device at least 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 that do not contain metallic components to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body . RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory that contains metal was not tested and certified, and using 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 of electromagnetic energy emitted by the phones 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 114 FOR YOUR SAFETY 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 users 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 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 devices 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 .) FOR YOUR SAFETY 115 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 .
