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 and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.Turning Off Your Phone Before FlyingTurn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your local Sprint Store, or call Sprint at 1-866-866-7509. You can also dial # 2 2 2 on your phone.Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.
112 4A. Important Safety InformationTurning 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, your phone and accessories 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:ⅢFueling areas such as gas stations.ⅢBelow deck on boats.ⅢFuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.ⅢAreas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.ⅢAny other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.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 increase your Sprint invoice.Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid DeviceA number of Sprint phones have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which 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 phone and hearing devices to determine usability rating categories for both.Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device users find 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 Vero™ has an M4 and a T4 rating.These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and individual 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.Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
4A. Important Safety Information 113Important Safety InformationM-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.)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:ⅷAny combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.ⅷAny combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.ⅷAny 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.Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store within 30 days of purchase. (A restocking fee may be applied to exchanges. Visit www.sprint.com/returns for details.) More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found at: www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, and www.accesswireless.org.Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience With Your PhoneTo further minimize interference:ⅷSet the phone’s main screen and keypad backlight settings to ensure the minimum time interval (see also page 29):1. Press  > Settings > Display > Backlight > Backlight Dim or Backlight Off.2. Highlight the minimum time interval setting and press .ⅷPosition the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your hearing aid.ⅷMove the phone around to find the point with least interference.Note: New Technologies, Including Wi-Fi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 newer wireless technologies (including Wi-Fi) used in this phone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids.
114 4A. Important Safety InformationCaring for the BatteryProtecting Your BatteryThe guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.ⅷRecently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. Sprint is not aware of similar problems with Sprint phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved by Sprint or the manufacturer of your phone. Use only Sprint-approved or manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found at Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1-866-866-7509 to order. They’re also available at www.sprint.com — click Accessories. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they’re genuine and safe.ⅷDo not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred the battery.ⅷDo not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard.ⅷAvoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.ⅷImproper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard.ⅷDo not short circuit a battery or allow metallic conductive objects to contact battery terminals.ⅷKeep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.ⅷBattery usage by children should be supervised.ChargingⅷIn order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).ⅷDon’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.ⅷThe battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time.ⅷIt’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.StoringⅷDon’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:ⅢLess than one month:-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)ⅢMore than one month:-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) BatteriesⅷPromptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regulations.ⅷNever dispose of the battery by incineration.
4A. Important Safety Information 115Important Safety InformationⅷDo not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.ⅷFor safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest Sprint authorized service center.Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.Radio Frequency (RF) EnergyUnderstanding How Your Phone OperatesYour phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.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 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, if you wear a handset on your body, use a Sprint-supplied or Sprint-approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 0.866 inches (2.2 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. Other accessories used with this device for body-worn operations must not contain any metallic components and must provide at least 0.866 inches (2.2 centimeters) separation distance including the antenna and the user’s body.For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov. Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless PhonesThe SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their
116 4A. Important Safety Informationhighest 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 the Vero™ are:Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):Head: 1.49 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.51 W/kgPCS mode (Part 24):Head: 0.88 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.64 W/kgFCC Radio Frequency EmissionThis phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: V65SCP-3820.More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/.FCC NoticeThis 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.Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
