Dynamic Noise Suppression from Audience
Your phone is equipped with an advanced voice processing chip that delivers clear mobile calls by suppressing
background noise, intermittent sounds (like a siren or nearby conversation), and echoes, allowing you to hear and
be heard nearly anywhere.
How Does It Work?
Based on the intelligence of the human hearing system, the technology:
•
Captures, evaluates and distinguishes all the sound signals surrounding your phone, and the person you're speaking with.
•
Then isolates the primary voice in conversation and filters out the background noise - so the person you're calling hears only
your voice, without disturbing background noise.
•
Dynamically equalizes and adjusts voice volume to optimize your calling experience, so you can hear clearly and don't need to
speak louder to overcome surrounding noise.
The noise suppression technology is built-in and already enabled in your new mobile phone. So it's ready to
provide unsurpassed voice clarity with every call.

Section 1: Getting Started
This section describes information about managing
your device, maximizing its performance.
Setting Up Your Device
Installing the Battery
1. Remove the battery from its packaging.
2. Place your fingernail in the battery cover and
firmly “pop” the cover off the device (as
shown).
3. Insert the battery into the opening in the back
of the phone (3), making sure the connectors
align. Gently press down to secure the
battery (4).
4. Position the battery cover over the battery
compartment and press down until you hear a
click.
5. Press to turn the phone on.
•
If your phone is activated, it turns on, searches for
service, and enters standby mode.
•
If your phone is not activated, see
“Activating Your
Device”
on page 21.

Getting Started 5
Removing the Battery
1. Make sure the power is off so that you don’t
lose any stored numbers or messages.
2. Place your fingernail in the battery cover and
firmly “pop” the cover off the device.
Charging the Battery
Keeping track of your battery’s charge is important. If
the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off, and you lose any information
you were working on.
Note:
Although the battery comes partially charged, it is
recommended you fully charge the battery before using
your device for the first time.
䊳
Plug the flat end of the cable into the device’s
charger/accessory jack and the other end into
an electrical outlet. The device turns on with
the screen locked and indicates both its charge
state and percent of charge.
With the Virgin Mobile-approved Li-Ion battery, you
can recharge the battery before it completely runs
down.
Battery and Charger
Virgin Mobile-approved or Samsung-approved
batteries and accessories can be found at stores or
through Samsung; or call 1-866-866-7509 to order.
They’re also available at
www.virginmobileusa.com
.
Warning!:
Use only Virgin Mobile-approved or approved
batteries and chargers with your device. The failure
to use a Virgin Mobile-approved or
Samsung-approved battery and charger may
increase the risk that your device will overheat,
catch fire, or explode, resulting in serious bodily
injury, death, or property damage.

Battery Capacity
This device is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion)
battery. You can recharge the battery before it is fully
drained. The battery provides up to 6.0 hours of talk
time.
At 3% of charge capacity, there are only a few
minutes of talk time left, the device sounds an audible
alert, displays a critical charge icon ( ), and
then turns off.
Note:
Long backlight settings, searching for service, vibrate
mode, browser use, and other variables may reduce the
battery’s talk and standby times.
Extending Your Battery Life
Watch your device’s battery level indicator and charge
the battery before it runs out of power.
Active applications, light levels, Bluetooth usage, and
GPS functionality all act to drain your battery. The
following is a list of helpful tips that can help conserve
your battery power:
•
Reduce the backlight time.
•
Turn off Bluetooth when not in use.
•
Check the Running Services and close any unnecessary
applications.
•
Do not wait until your battery is completely depleted
before charging the device. Repeating this process of a
complete discharge and recharge can over time reduce
the storage capacity of any battery.
Your Device’s microSD Card and
Adapter
The microSD Card
An optional memory card will expand your phone’s
digital space. A memory card allows you to store
images, videos, and music in your phone.
Caution!:
Make sure your battery is fully charged before using
the memory card. Your data may become damaged or
unusable if the battery runs out while using the
microSD card.

back of the phone), place your fingernail in the
battery cover and firmly “pop” the cover off the
device (similar to a soda can).
2. Locate the microSD card slot along the side of
the device.
3. With the gold contact pins facing downward,
carefully insert the microSD card into the
opening and firmly push it in until you hear a
click indicating the card is securely
installed.
4. Replace the cover by lining up the tabs and
then firmly pressing the cover down until it
snaps into place. Ensure that the battery is still
properly installed before turning on the phone.
Caution!:
It is easy to damage the microSD card and it’s
adapter with improper handling. Please be careful
when inserting, removing, or handling the microSD
card.

8
Removing the microSD Card

Viewing Contact History
History is a list of the last 240 phone numbers for
calls you placed, accepted, or missed. History makes
redialing a number fast and easy. It is continually
updated as your phone automatically adds new
numbers to the beginning of the list and removes the
oldest entries from the bottom of the list.
When you place, accept, or miss a call, a record of the
call saves in the Recent History list. When you view
the numbers in this list, the phone icon to the left of
the number indicates the call type:
•
Missed
: Indicates any missed calls.
•
Received
: Indicates any received calls that were
answered.
•
Dialed

.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
Signals
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
published information for consumers relating to Radio
Frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones. The
FDA publication includes the following information:
Do cell phones pose a health hazard?
Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation
will cause cancer or other serious health hazards. The
weight of scientific evidence has not linked cell
phones with any health problems.
Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF)
energy. Over the past 15 years, scientists have
conducted hundreds of studies looking at the
biological effects of the radio frequency energy
emitted by cell phones. While some researchers have
reported biological changes associated with RF
energy, these studies have failed to be replicated. The
majority of studies published have failed to show an
association between exposure to radio frequency
from a cell phone and health problems.
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are
in the microwave frequency range. They also emit RF
at substantially reduced time intervals when in the
stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can
produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to
low level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects.
The biological effects of radio frequency energy
should not be confused with the effects from other
types of electromagnetic energy.
Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is
found in X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological
tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are
stripped away from their normal locations in atoms
and molecules. It can permanently damage biological
tissues including DNA, the genetic material.
The energy levels associated with radio frequency
energy, including both radio waves and microwaves,
are not great enough to cause ionization of atoms and
molecules. Therefore, RF energy is a type of non-
ionizing radiation. Other types of non-ionizing
radiation include visible light, infrared radiation (heat),
and other forms of electromagnetic radiation with
relatively low frequencies.

Health and Safety Information 83
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large
amounts can increase body temperatures and cause
tissue damage. Two areas of the body, the eyes and
the testes, are particularly vulnerable to RF heating
because there is relatively little blood flow in them to
carry away excess heat.
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection
between RF and certain health problems?
The results of most studies conducted to date say no.
In addition, attempts to replicate and confirm the few
studies that have shown a connection have failed.
The scientific community at large therefore believes
that the weight of scientific evidence does not show
an association between exposure to Radio Frequency
(RF) from cell phones and adverse health outcomes.
Still the scientific community has supported
additional research to address gaps in knowledge.
Some of these studies are described below.
Interphone Study
Interphone is a large international study designed to
determine whether cell phones increase the risk of
head and neck cancer. A report published in the
International Journal of Epidemiology (June, 2010)
compared cell phone usage for more than 5,000
people with brain tumors (glioma and meningioma)
and a similar number of healthy controls.
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones
caused brain cancer. In this study, most people had
no increased risk of brain cancer from using cell
phones. For people with the heaviest use of cell
phones (an average of more than ½ hour per day,
every day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a
slight increase in brain cancer. However, the authors
determined that biases and errors prevented any
conclusions being drawn from this data. Additional
information about Interphone can be found at
http://com.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/.
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but
it did not answer all questions about cell phone
safety. Additional research is being conducted around
the world, and the FDA continues to monitor
developments in this field.
International Cohort Study on Mobile Phone
Users (COSMOS)
The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health
monitoring of a large group of people to determine if
there are any health issues linked to long-term
exposure to radio frequency energy from cell phone
use. The COSMOS study will follow approximately
300,000 adult cell phone users in Europe for 20 to 30
years. Additional information about the COSMOS
study can be found at
http://www.ukcosmos.org/
index.html
.

84
Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio
Frequency Fields in Childhood and Adolescence
(MOBI-KIDS)
MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the
relationship between exposure to radio frequency
energy from communication technologies including
cell phones and brain cancer in young people. This is
an international multi-center study involving 14
European and non-European countries. Additional
information about MOBI-KIDS can be found at
http://www.creal.cat/programes-recerca/en_projectes-
creal/view.php?ID=39.
.
Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)
Program of the National Cancer Institute
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows
cancer statistics in the United States to detect any
change in rates of new cases for brain cancer. If cell
phones play a role in risk for brain cancer, rates
should go up, because heavy cell phone use has been
common for quite some time in the U.S. Between
1987 and 2005, the overall age-adjusted incidence of
brain cancer did not increase. Additional information
about SEER can be found at
http://seer.cancer.gov/
.
Cell Phone Industry Actions
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA
regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone
industry to take a number of steps, including the
following:
•
Support-needed research on possible biological
effects of RF for the type of signal emitted by cell
phones;
•
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF
exposure to the user; and
•
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the
current information on cell phone use and human
health concerns.
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-
setting bodies such as the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP), and others to assure that safety standards
continue to adequately protect the public.

Health and Safety Information 85
Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and
Other Accessories
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio
Frequency Energy
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio
frequency energy (RF) from cell phones - and at this
point we do not know that there is - it is probably
very small. But, if you are concerned about avoiding
even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps
to minimize your RF exposure.
•
Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;
•
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance
between your head and the cell phone.
Hands-Free Kits
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth®
headsets and various types of body-worn accessories
such as belt-clips and holsters. Combinations of
these can be used to reduce RF energy absorption
from cell phones.
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because
the phone is held away from the head in the user's
hand or in approved body-worn accessories. Cell
phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet RF
exposure compliance requirements when used
against the head and against the body.
Because there are no known risks from exposure to
RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free
kits can be used for convenience and comfort. They
are also required by law in many states if you want to
use your phone while driving.
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield
the Head from RF Radiation
Because there are no known risks from exposure to
RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to
believe that accessories which claim to shield the
head from those emissions reduce risks. Some
products that claim to shield the user from RF
absorption use special phone cases, while others
involve nothing more than a metallic accessory
attached to the phone. Studies have shown that
these products generally do not work as advertised.
Unlike “hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields”
may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The
phone may be forced to boost its power to
compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption.
Children and Cell Phones
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to
any users of cell phones from RF exposure, including
children and teenagers. The steps adults can take to
reduce RF exposure apply to children and teenagers
as well.
•
Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;
•
Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance
between the head and the cell phone.
Some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using cell phones at all. For
example, The Stewart Report from the United
Kingdom made such a recommendation in December
2000. In this report, a group of independent experts
noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone

86
causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children
was strictly precautionary; it was not based on
scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Certification Information
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the exposure limits for Radio Frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.
These FCC exposure limits are derived from the
recommendations of two expert organizations: the
National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
In both cases, the recommendations were developed
by scientific and engineering experts drawn from
industry, government, and academia after extensive
reviews of the scientific literature related to the
biological effects of RF energy.
The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile
phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure
of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human
body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg).
The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a
safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection to the
public and to account for any variations in
measurements.

Health and Safety Information 87
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC 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 new model phone is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that
it does not exceed the exposure limit established by
the FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed
in positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC.
For body-worn operation, this phone has been tested
and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when used
with an accessory that contains no metal and that
positions the mobile device a minimum of 1.5 cm
from the body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this mobile phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. The maximum SAR values for this model
phone as reported to the FCC are:
PCS mode(part 24)
–
Head: 0.53 W/Kg
–
Body-worn 0.58 W/Kg
SAR information on this and other model phones can
be viewed online at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea
. To find
information that pertains to a particular model phone,
this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is
usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the
battery pack to find the number. Once you have the
FCC ID number for a particular phone, follow the
instructions on the website and it should provide
values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular
phone. Additional product specific SAR information
can also be obtained at
www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar
.
Smart Practices While Driving
On the Road - Off the Phone
The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe
operation of his or her vehicle.
Responsible drivers understand that no secondary
task should be performed while driving whether it be
eating, drinking, talking to passengers, or talking on
a mobile phone - unless the driver has assessed the
driving conditions and is confident that the secondary
task will not interfere with their primary
responsibility.
Do not engage in any activity while
driving a moving vehicle which may cause you to take
your eyes off the road or become so absorbed in the
activity that your ability to concentrate on the act of
driving becomes impaired
. Samsung is committed to
promoting responsible driving and giving drivers the
tools they need to understand and address
distractions.

88
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile
devices and their accessories in the areas where you
drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices may
be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. For
example, only hands-free use may be permitted in
certain areas.
Before answering calls, consider your circumstances.
Let the call go to voicemail when driving conditions
require. Remember, driving comes first, not the call!
If you consider a call necessary and appropriate,
follow these tips:
•
Use a hands-free device;
•
Secure your phone within easy reach;
•
Place calls when you are not moving;
•
Plan calls when your car will be stationary;
•
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations;
•
Let the person with whom you are speaking know that you
are driving and will suspend the call if necessary;
•
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving;

Battery Use and Safety
Important!: Handle and store batteries properly to avoid injury or
damage
. Most battery issues arise from improper
handling of batteries and, particularly, from the
continued use of damaged batteries.
•
Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or
otherwise attempt to change the form of your battery
.
Do not put a high degree of pressure on the battery. This
can cause leakage or an internal short-circuit, resulting in
overheating.
•
Do not let the phone or battery come in contact with
liquids.
Liquids can get into the phone's circuits, leading
to corrosion. Even when the phone appears to be dry and
appears to operate normally, the circuitry could slowly
corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the phone and/or
battery get wet, have them checked by your service
provider or contact Samsung, even if they appear to be
working properly.

Health and Safety Information 89
•
Do not place your battery in or near a heat source
.
Excessive heating can damage the phone or the battery
and could cause the phone or the battery to explode. Do
not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat
source such as a microwave oven, hair dryer, iron, or
radiator. Avoid leaving your phone in your car in high
temperatures.
•
Do not dispose of the phone or the battery in a fire
.
The phone or the battery may explode when overheated.
•
Do not handle a damaged or leaking battery
. Do not let
leaking battery fluid come in contact with your eyes, skin
or clothing. For safe disposal options, contact your
nearest Samsung-authorized service center.
•
Avoid dropping the cell phone
. Dropping the phone or
the battery, especially on a hard surface, can potentially
cause damage to the phone and battery. If you suspect
damage to the phone or battery, take it to a service
center for inspection.
•
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in
any way
.
•
Do not allow the battery to touch metal objects
.
Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, key, jewelry, clip, or pen) causes a direct
connection between the + and - terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the battery), for example when you carry
a spare battery in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the object causing
the short-circuiting.
Important!:
Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and
recharge your battery only with Samsung-approved
chargers which are specifically designed for your
phone.
Warning!: Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger
may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other
hazard
. Samsung's warranty does not cover damage
to the phone caused by non-Samsung-approved
batteries and/or chargers.
•
Do not use incompatible cell phone batteries and
chargers
. Some websites and second-hand dealers not
associated with reputable manufacturers and carriers,
might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit
batteries and chargers. Consumers should purchase
manufacturer or carrier-recommended products and
accessories. If unsure about whether a replacement
battery or charger is compatible, contact the
manufacturer of the battery or charger.
•
Misuse or use of incompatible phones, batteries, and
charging devices could result in damage to the
equipment and a possible risk of fire, explosion, or
leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to your
phone, or other serious hazard
.

GPS & AGPS
Certain Samsung mobile devices can use a Global
Positioning System (GPS) signal for location-based
applications. A GPS uses satellites controlled by the
U.S. Government that are subject to changes
implemented in accordance with the Department of
Defense policy and the 2008 Federal Radio
navigation Plan (FRP). Changes may affect the
performance of location-based technology on your
mobile device.
Certain Samsung mobile devices can also use an
Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS), which
obtains information from the cellular network to
improve GPS performance. AGPS uses your wireless
service provider's network and therefore airtime,
data charges, and/or additional charges may apply in
accordance with your service plan. Contact your
wireless service provider for details.
Your Location
Location-based information includes information that
can be used to determine the approximate location of
a mobile device. Mobile devices which are connected
to a wireless network transmit location-based
information. Additionally, if you use applications that
require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based
information. The location-based information may be
shared with third-parties, including your wireless
service provider, applications providers, Samsung,
and other third-parties providing services.

92
Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular
network may activate AGPS technology in your mobile
device to tell the emergency responders your
approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and
might not work in your area
.
Therefore:
•
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the
best of your ability; and
•
Remain on the mobile device for as long as the emergency
responder instructs you.
Navigation
Maps, directions, and other navigation data may
contain inaccurate or incomplete data, and
circumstances can and do change over time. In some
areas, complete information may not be available.
Therefore,
you should always visually confirm that the
navigational instructions are consistent with what you
see before following them. All users should pay
attention to road conditions, closures, traffic, and all
other factors that may impact safe driving or walking.
Always obey posted road signs
.
Emergency Calls
This mobile device, like any wireless mobile device,
operates using radio signals, wireless and landline
networks, as well as user-programmed functions,
which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions,
areas, or circumstances. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless mobile device for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for example).
Before traveling in remote or underdeveloped areas,
plan an alternate method of contacting emergency
services personnel. Remember, to make or receive
any calls, the mobile device must be switched on and
in a service area with adequate signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless
mobile device networks or when certain network
services and/or mobile device features are in use.
Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the mobile device is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location (for example, 911 or other official
emergency number). Emergency numbers vary
by location.
3. Press .
If certain features are in use (call blocking, for
example), you may first need to deactivate those
features before you can make an emergency call.
Consult your User Manual and your local cellular
service provider. When making an emergency call,
remember to give all the necessary information as
accurately as possible. Remember that your mobile
device may be the only means of communication at
the scene of an accident; do not cut off the call until
given permission to do so.

Health and Safety Information 93
Care and Maintenance
Your mobile device is a product of superior design
and craftsmanship and should be treated with care.
The suggestions below will help you fulfill any
warranty obligations and allow you to enjoy this
product for many years:
Keep your Samsung Mobile Device away from:
Liquids of any kind
Keep the mobile device dry. Precipitation, humidity,
and liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits. If the mobile device does get
wet, do not accelerate drying with the use of an
oven, microwave, or dryer, because this may
damage the mobile device and could cause a fire or
explosion. Do not use the mobile device with a wet
hand. Doing so may cause an electric shock to you
or damage to the mobile device.
Extreme heat or cold
Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above
45°C / 113°F.
Microwaves
Do not try to dry your mobile device in a microwave
oven. Doing so may cause a fire or explosion.
Dust and dirt
Do not expose your mobile device to dust, dirt, or
sand.
Cleaning solutions
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or
strong detergents to clean the mobile device. Wipe
it with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild
soap-and-water solution.
Shock or vibration
Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device.
Rough handling can break internal circuit boards.
Paint
Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the
device’s moving parts or ventilation openings and
prevent proper operation.
Responsible Listening
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss
.
Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed
to loud sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss
increases as sound is played louder and for longer
durations. Prolonged exposure to loud sounds
(including music) is the most common cause of
preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research
suggests that using portable audio devices, such as
portable music players and cell phones, at high
volume settings for long durations may lead to
permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes
the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds,
and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices). Exposure
to very loud sound has also been associated in some
studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear),
hypersensitivity to sound, and distorted hearing.

94
Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss
and potential hearing problem varies. Additionally, the
amount of sound produced by a portable audio device
varies depending on the nature of the sound, the
device settings, and the headphones that are used. As
a result, there is no single volume setting that is
appropriate for everyone or for every combination of
sound, settings, and equipment.
You should follow some common sense
recommendations when using any portable audio
device:
•
Always turn the volume down before plugging the
earphones into an audio source.
•
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the
lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.
•
Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings
over time, not realizing that the higher volume may be
harmful to your hearing.
•
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you
cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person
sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.
•
Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings.
If you choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy
environment, use noise-cancelling headphones to block
out background environmental noise. By blocking
background environment noise, noise cancelling
headphones should allow you to hear the music at lower
volumes than when using earbuds.
•
Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume
increases, less time is required before you hearing could
be affected.
•
Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud
noises, such as rock concerts, that might cause
temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might
cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
•
Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If
you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech,
or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after
listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use
and consult your doctor.

Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information. Switch your mobile device off in health
care facilities when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle before using
your mobile device in a motor vehicle. You should also
consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has
been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch your mobile device off in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your mobile device off when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death. Users are advised to switch the mobile device
off while at a refueling point (service station). Users
are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants, or where
blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a
potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include below deck on
boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles
using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and
any other area where you would normally be advised
to turn off your vehicle engine.
FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-
309 modified the exception of wireless mobile
devices under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of
1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless mobile
devices be compatible with hearing aids.
The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable
access to telecommunications services for persons
with hearing disabilities. While some wireless mobile
devices 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 mobile devices also vary in
the amount of interference they generate.

Health and Safety Information 97
The wireless telephone industry has developed a
rating system for wireless mobile devices to assist
hearing device users find mobile devices that may be
compatible with their hearing devices. Not all mobile
devices have been rated. Mobile devices 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 user's hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable
to interference, you may not be able to use a rated
mobile device successfully. Trying out the mobile
device with your hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings
: Mobile devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than mobile devices
that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the
two ratings.
T-Ratings
: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than mobile devices
that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing
device manufacturer or hearing health professional
may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean
that the hearing device is relatively immune to
interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless
mobile device rating values are then added together.
A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use.
A sum of 6 is considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2
level rating and the wireless mobile device meets the
M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5.
This is synonymous for T ratings. This should provide
the hearing aid user with “normal usage” while using
their hearing aid with the particular wireless mobile
device.
“Normal usage” in this context is defined as a signal
quality that is acceptable for normal operation. The M
mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark.
The T mark is intended to be synonymous with the
UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by
the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries
Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced
in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules.
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are
described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
M3 + M2 = 5
T3 + T2 =

98
Restricting Children's Access to Your
Mobile Device
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children
to play with it because they could hurt themselves
and others, damage the mobile device, or make calls
that increase your mobile device bill.
Keep the mobile device and all its parts and
accessories out of the reach of small children.
FCC Notice and Cautions
FCC Notice
The mobile device may cause TV or radio interference
if used in close proximity to receiving equipment. The
FCC can require you to stop using the mobile device if
such interference cannot be eliminated. Vehicles
using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection
Standard (NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard,
contact the National Fire Protection Association.
Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your mobile device
not expressly approved in this document could void
your warranty for this equipment and void your
authority to operate this equipment. Only use
approved batteries, antennas, and chargers. The use
of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous
and void the mobile device warranty if said
