PHONE SAFETY AND CARE

Background

The hand-held portable personal communication service telephone is one of the most exciting and innovative electronic products ever developed. With it you can stay in contact with your office, your home, emergency services etc.

Your personal communication service telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The phone operates in the frequency range of 800MHz to 840MHz (QCP 800) or 1850 MHz to 1990 MHz (QCP 1900). When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits. The power level can range from 0.006 of a watt to 0.3 of a watt.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and in 1992, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF energy. Over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry, after reviewing the available body of research, developed this updated standard.

In March 1993, The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this updated standard.

The design of the QCP 800/QCP 1900 phone complies with this updated standard. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most power efficient manner.

For Best Performance

To properly operate the phone and maintain safe and satisfactory service, follow these rules:

  • Extend the antenna fully.
  • Hold the phone with the antenna up and over your shoulder.
  • Do not hold the phone antenna at any time.
  • Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna.
  • Speak directly into the mouth piece.
  • Use the phone when the car is stopped.

Avoid exposing the phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If the phone gets wet, turn the power off immediately and remove the battery pack. If the phone is inoperable, then return it to the dealer for service.

Only authorized personnel should install or service the phone and its accessories. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate the warranty.

Caring for the Battery

For best battery performance, follow these guidelines:

- Only use QUALCOMM battery packs, model number TABAT0001, and QUALCOMM chargers, model numbers TATVL0001 or TADTC0002. Do not use any other battery pack or charger.

QUALCOMM's chargers are designed to maximize the battery life performance.

- Do not charge the battery pack in temperatures outside of 32^ to 122^ (0°C to 50°C) because damage could occur.

- Do not use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in places with high humidity such as the bathroom.

- Never dispose of the battery pack by a fire.

- Keep the metal contacts at the top end of the battery pack clean.

- Do not attempt to disassemble or short circuit the battery pack.

- You may need to recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long time.

- Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The battery pack may be recharged hundreds of times before it will need to be replaced.

- Do not store the battery pack for long periods in places where high temperatures frequently occur. Follow these storage rules:

less than 1 month: -4^ to 140^ (-20°C to 60°C) more than 1 month: -4^ to 113^ (-20°C to 45°C)

Driving Safety

Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is illegal in some states. Remember, safety comes first.

Check the laws and regulations on the use of PCS phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.

When using the phone in the car:

  • Give full attention to driving.
  • Use hands-free operation.
  • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.

If you must use the phone while driving, please use one-touch, speed dialing, and auto answer modes.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Other Safety Guidelines

For the safe and efficient operation of your phone, observe the following guidelines.

Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any given area. Always turn off the phone wherever its use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from PCS telephones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy.

You should also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.

Turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before using the phone near medical equipment.

Aircraft

Turn the phone off before boarding any aircraft. Use it on the ground only with crew permission. Do not use it in the air. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, 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 interference with personal communication service systems, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.

Children

Do not allow children to play with your phone. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna for example). Also, children could damage the phone or make calls that increase your telephone bills.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare but your phone or its accessories could generate sparks.

Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere 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; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your phone or accessories.

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, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publication Sales Division.
