Limited Feature Description: Disclaimer

Your Smart-Ex® 03 smartphone comes with a feature-rich Android operating system and Google applications. This document intends to address the basic features of the phone and the applications integrated there-in. We recommend that you refer to the help and support documentation associated with each application to explore the latest features offered by them.

The Android operating system receives frequent updates. It is recommended to download and install these updates to ensure best use of your Smart-Ex® 03.

Avoid High Temperatures

Leaving the phone in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter conditions, reduces the capacity and lifetime of the built-in battery. For the best results, try to keep the phone between -20^ and +60^ (-4°F and +140°F). A phone with a hot or cold battery may not work temporarily, even when the battery is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Personal Medical Devices

Smartphones may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please avoid placing the smartphone over the pacemaker, for example in your breast pocket. When using the smartphone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between the smartphone and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you suspect that interference is taking place, immediately turn off your smartphone. Contact your cardiologist for more information. For other medical devices, consult your physician and the manufacturer of the device. Comply with instructions to switch off the device or deactivate the RF transmitter when required, especially when posted in hospitals and airplanes. Equipment used in these places may be sensitive to radio waves emitted from the device and adversely affect their operation. Also, observe restrictions at gas stations or other areas with flammable atmosphere or when close to electro-explosive devices (applicable to non-Ex versions only).

Child Safety

This equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.

Emergency Calls

Smartphones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any smartphone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas, on all cellular networks, or when certain network services and/or smartphone features are in use. Check with your local service provider. To make emergency calls, the user can dial the emergency numbers. If the phone display is in locked state, you can long press the EMERGENCY text on the screen.

3) Devices shall not be used for control of or communications with unmanned aircraft systems.

This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States and Industry Canada.

During SAR testing, this device is set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and near the body with the separation of 10mm . Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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.

The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg and 1.6 W/kg by Industry Canada.

This device is in compliance with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and Canada RSS 102 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528 and Canada RSS 102. This device has been tested and meets the FCC and IC RF exposure guidelines when tested with the device directly contacted to the body.

For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage,

By the head is 0.62W / Kg (1g)
Worn on the body is 0.9 ~W / Kg(1 ~g)
Used as hotspot is 0.7W / Kg (1g)

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.

SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 10mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device at least 0mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or holsters that do not contain metallic components to maintain a separation of 0mm between this device and your body.

RF exposure compliance with anybody-worn accessory, which contains metal, was not tested and certified, and using such bodyworn accessory should be avoided.

ÉNERGIE RADIOÉLECTRIQUE

The Smart-Ex® 03 has been certified in compliance with the Government's requirements for exposure to Radio Waves.

When communicating over the wireless network, the smartphone emits via the radio frequency waves, low levels of radio energy. The Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, is the amount of RF energy absorbed by the body while using the phone and is expressed in watts/kilogram (W/kg).

Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, for example, ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.). These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands.

SAR Data Information for residents in countries that have adopted the SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), for example, European Union, Japan, Brazil and New Zealand is available.

A minimum separation distance of 0mm must be maintained between the user's body and the device, including the antenna during body-worn operation to comply with the RF exposure requirements in Europe. The limit recommended by ICNIRP is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) grams of tissue.

The following SAR values are applicable to Smart-Ex® 03 smartphones. This variant is available globally.

The highest SAR value for the Smart-Ex® 03 ROW phone when tested by Pepperl+Fuchs for use:

By the head is 1.78 W/Kg (10 g).
Worn on the body and by limbs is 1.84 ~W / Kg (10 g).
