you want to use this device when on board an aircraft, remember to turn off
the phone by switching to Flight Mode.
ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or
where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially explosive
atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the
air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where
flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user
should 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
not to use the equipment at refueling points such as service or gas stations,
and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations
are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often,
but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
ROAD SAFETY
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with
handheld devices, except in the case of emergency. In some countries,
using hands-free devices as an alternative is allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel
frame of a building).
9
• Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as
microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories
that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate
your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this
device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, 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.
Turn the phone 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.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider,
or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
NONIONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in
its normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and safety
of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and
for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human
body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the
equipment.
![](/img.php?id=939037&img=bga.png)
10
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified
antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of
performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well
as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your
country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF
energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always
use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the
antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact
with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to
operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the
antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance
and the battery life.

numbers respectively. You can edit this indicator first before you start
copying contacts to your USIM/SIM card. Indicators of the other types of
phone numbers are left empty for you to define them.

8.5 E-mail Security
Windows Mobile® on your device protects your Outlook e-mails through
Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (S/MIME), which allows you to
digitally sign and encrypt your messages.
Digitally signing a message applies your certificate with the authorization
key to the message. This proves to the recipient that the message is from
you and not from an imposter or a hacker, and that the message has not
been altered.
Encryption protects the privacy of your message by converting it from
plain, readable text into cipher (scrambled) text. Only the recipient who has
the authorization key can decipher the message.
Requirement S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows
Mobile® powered devices are available only with Exchange
Server 2003 SP2 or a later version that supports S/MIME. If
you are not using one of these products, or have not yet
synchronized, these options are unavailable.
Note You can encrypt a message with or without a certificate. However, to read an
encrypted message, you need a valid certificate to decrypt it.
To individually sign and encrypt a new message
1. Tap Start > Messaging >
Outlook E-mail.
2. Tap Menu > New to create a new
message.
3. Tap Menu > Message Options.
4. From the Security list, select
whether to encrypt only, sign the
message only, or do both.
5. Tap OK.
![](/img.php?id=939037&img=bg93.png)
Working With Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 147
To verify the digital signature on a signed message you receive

2. At the top of the message, tap View Signature Status.
3. Tap Menu > Check Certificate.
To view the details of the certificate in the message, tap Menu > View
Certificate.
Note There can be several reasons why a digital signature is not valid. For example,
the sender’s certificate may have expired, it may have been revoked by the
certificate authority, or the server that verifies the certificate is unavailable.
Contact the sender to report the problem.

• Do not operate the GPS system while driving.
• The plotted GPS route is only for driving references. It should not
affect actual driving behavior.
• Please use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any
damages resulting from negligent operation of the system.
• When using inside a vehicle, please utilise the car holder to mount the
device securely in place. Please avoid the areas shown in the following
diagram:
1. Do not place where it will block the driver’s vision.
2. Do not place at where the air bags are.
3. Do not place anywhere in the vehicle without securing in the
holder.
4. Do not place where the air bags could deploy.

Using GPS 189
• The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent objects.
Signal reception may be affected due to obstructions such as high-
rise buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, bad weather (rainy or cloudy
days), etc.
• Signal reception may be affected by obstructions such as high-rise
buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, weather (rainy or cloudy days),
etc. If the vehicle’s visor contains metal, it will be difficult for the GPS
signal to pass through. To have better signal reception, try connecting
your device to an external GPS antenna.

• The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the US
Defense Department. The Department is responsible for the accuracy
and maintenance of the system. Any changes that the Department
makes may affect the accuracy and function of the GPS system.
• Wireless communication products (such as mobile phones or radar-
detecting devices) may interfere with the satellite signal, resulting in
unstable signal reception.
• Please do not leave your device in the vehicle and expose to direct
sunlight to avoid overheating the battery that could pose damage to
the device or risk to the vehicle.

11.2 Downloading Satellite Data via QuickGPS
Before you start to use your device for GPS navigation, open the QuickGPS
program first to download Ephemeris data (current satellite position and
timing information) onto your device. This data is needed to determine the
GPS position of your current location.
QuickGPS downloads Ephemeris data from a Web server, instead of
from the satellites, using the Internet connection on your device, which
can be via ActiveSync or GPRS. This significantly speeds up the time for
determining your GPS position.
To open QuickGPS
Tap Start > Programs > QuickGPS.
To download data
Tap Download on the QuickGPS screen.
On the screen, initially, you will see the Valid time of the downloaded
data to be 3 days. As days and time pass, the remaining days and time
of validity will be shown.
To speed up GPS positioning, download the latest Ephemeris data
when the validity of the data expires.

Using GPS 191
Download options
To configure download times, tap Menu > Options and choose from the
following options:
• Remind me when data expires. Enables your device to display
a reminder message when the validity of the Ephemeris data has
expired.
When you see the reminder message, tap Menu to dismiss the
reminder or to set the snooze time so that you will be reminded
again. Tap OK to open the QuickGPS program and download the
latest data.
• Autodownload when data expires. Allows Ephemeris data to be
automatically updated onto your device when the data has expired.
• Autodownload when connected to PC via ActiveSync. Allows
Ephemeris data to be automatically downloaded via ActiveSync to
your device when your device is connected to your computer. Your
computer must be connected to the Internet in order to download
data.
Note The Ephemeris data are stored on HTC Web servers. QuickGPS is
preconfigured to connect to these servers.

number of KAIS140.
To ensure continued reliable and safe operation of your device, use only the
accessories listed below with your KAIS140.
The Battery Pack has been assigned a model number of KAIS160.
Note This product is intended for use with a certified Class 2 or Class 3 Limited
Power Source, rated 5 Volts DC, maximum 1 Amp power supply unit.
Federal Communications Commission Notice
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.
This equipment 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 harm-ful interference to
radio or TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
on and off, 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 or television technician for
help.
Appendix 255
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications
made to the device that are not expressly approved by High Tech Computer
Corporation may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Safety precautions for RF exposure
• Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories
that do not contain any metal.
• Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate
your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output
power is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels
of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the
safety standards previously set by international standards bodies:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).
Report 86. 1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for
the public and to account for any variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that
for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel,
it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too
close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna.
Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and
256 Appendix
damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding
the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local
regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF
energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always
use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the
antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact
with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to
operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the
antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance
and the battery life.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified 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 operation 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 phone model is available
for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement
for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (for
example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each
model. 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 handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
When carrying the phone while it is on, use only the original manufacturer
approved accessories. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

FCC: 0.629W/kg @1g (Head)
1.54W/kg @1g (Body)
Appendix 257
Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety
information
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider,
or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external
RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn the phone 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.
