General Precautions
There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service.
- Speak directly into the microphone.
- Do not expose your phone to direct sunlight for extended periods of time (such as on the dashboard of a car).
- Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on it.
- Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this document could void your warranty for this equipment and void your authority to operate this equipment.
Note: For the best care of your phone, only Kyocera-authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Failure to do so may be dangerous and void your warranty.
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 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 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 vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers,
defibrillators, and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded
from external RF signals.
Note: When using the phone in and near healthcare facilities, always
determine the facility’s policy concerning cell phone usage and request
permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
Using Your Phone On Airplanes
On airplanes, follow applicable airline 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 two-way radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set
off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it’s rare, connecting or disconnecting accessories to
your phone could generate sparks. 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.
Safe Battery Use
Caution: Damage to the battery in this phone presents a risk of fire or
chemical burn. Do not crush, smash, or puncture the phone. Do not expose to
temperatures above 60° C/140° F or incinerate.
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 make calls that may increase
your monthly bill.
Waterproof Capability
Your phone is waterproof and meets IPX4, IPX5, and IPX8 standards, immersible for up to 30 minutes at a depth not exceeding two meters (about 6.56 feet). Exposing your phone to water outside these limits or not 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 tray cover is properly seated, with no foreign objects obstructing the seals.
-
Avoid using your phone in salt water. It is highly corrosive and can damage internal components and degrade the audio performance over time. Always rinse your phone in fresh water immediately after using it underwater.
-
Do not expose your phone to water heated in excess of 104° F (40° C).
-
Do not use the USB/Charger port for charging, data transmission, etc. until the phone is completely dry.
If your phone gets wet: Water in the phone’s open microphone and speaker ports may affect outbound audio quality and speaker performance. These are temporary conditions and will subside once the phone is dry. -
Do not open the SIWmicroSD card tray cover as this may allow water to get inside the sealed portion of the phone.
-
Refer to the User Guide about how to dry your phone, especially after using the phone’s camera feature in Underwater Mode.
-
Dry your phone with a clean cloth before charging.
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 that 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
phones 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 phone has an M3 and a T3
rating.
These ratings are not guaranteed. 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.
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 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: http://www.fccmov, http://www.fda.pov, and http://www.accesswireless.orq.
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your Phone
To further minimize interference, move the phone around to find the point with
the least interference.
Caring for the Battery
Note: The battery cannot be removed from the phone. For replacing or
disposing of the battery, contact a KYOCERA authorized service center.
Your phone is installed with a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery. The guidelines
listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance. Charging
- If your phone is wet, dry it with a clean cloth before charging.
- Do not touch the AC adapter, the charging cable, or the USB/Charger 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 near a kitchen sink.
- Do not charge your phone in direct sunlight.
- Only charge the battery using the charger and cable provided with your phone: AC adapter SCP-49ADT and USB data cable SCP-24SDC. Use of any other device or cable may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or another hazard.
- In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 37° F to 113° F (3° C to 45° C).
- Only use the AC adapter indoors in a dry environment and avoid direct sunlight.
- The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.
- It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing. The battery cannot be removed from the phone. Contact a KYOCERA authorized service center for replacing the battery.
Common Causes of Battery Drain
To make your battery last longer, adjust applicable settings and avoid high-
drain activities including:
- Playing games or using the Web
- Keeping backlighting on
- Operating the phone far away from a base station or cell site
- Operating the phone when no service is available, or service is available intermittently
- Using data cables or accessories
- High volume settings
- Repeating sound, vibration, or lighted alerts
Storing
Don’t store the phone in high-temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s
best to follow these storage rules:
- Less than one month: -4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
- More than one month: -4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Important Safety Information
Disposal of Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Battery Installed in Your Phone
The battery cannot be removed from the phone. For safe disposal options of
your Li-ion battery, contact your nearest KYOCERA authorized service center.
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 RF power level. Depending on network conditions, your phone
may operate at an actual Specific Absorption Rates (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 a 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 0.59 inches (1.5 centimeters) 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. This device is not intended to be
used with a lanyard or strap on the body. The device contains a mounting point
that may be used to attach the device to equipment, a backpack, or tool belt,
etc. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at
http://www.fcc.Q0V.
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 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 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.
The highest reported SAR values of your phone are:
Head: 0.66 W/kg Body: 1.23 W/kg (measured at 15 mm) Hotspot (10 mm): 1.15 W/kg
In the US, the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg
(VV/kg) averaged over 1 gram of tissue for the body or head. 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:
