Care and Maintenance 38 Care and Maintenance 39 General Guidelines • In some countries n\&ational law prevents unapproved\& private copyin\b of\& copyri\bhted material\&. Please check the \& national le\bislation\& of the applicable \& country concernin\b \&the use of such material. • Many jurisdictions \&have laws and re\bulations about ta\&kin\b pictures in public or private a\&reas and re\bardin\b \& the processin\b and \&further use of such\& pictures. The manuf\&acturer encoura\bes \& its customers to obe\&y all laws and to respect the persona\&l ri\bhts of others. • Please check the ro\&amin\b a\breement availability with y\&our service provid\&er. • The use of mobile p\&hones is not allowe\&d in some radiation s\&ensitive areas, suc\&h as hospitals, research\& centers and airpla\&nes. The user is respon\&sible for turnin\b o\&ff the device. If ther\&e is any uncertaint\&y, you should remove t\&he battery from the handset. • Observe any si\bns t\&hat indicate that yo\&u must turn off your p\&hone, such as those\& near \bas stations or\& explosives and tur\&n off the phone immedi\&ately. • If you have a hear\&t condition, be car\&eful with the settin\bs for\& call vibration or \& tone volume. • Do not allow childr\&en to play with the \& phone, char\ber, or batteries. • Do not use the phon\&e where blastin\b is\& in pro\bress. • Do not try to make a\& call if the temperature of the c\&har\bin\b battery is above 113°F. • Take care not to put \&your phone in the back pocket of your\& trousers or skirt \&and then sit on it. In a\&ddition, do not put \&your phone at the bottom o\&f a ba\b where it may be subject to\& excessive wei\bht or pressure. Doin\b \&so may dama\be the LCD and camera lens\& and cause them to malfunction. • The operation of so\&me medical electroni\&c devices, such as h\&earin\b aids and pacemakers, may be \&affected if a phone\& is used next to them\&. Observe any caution si\bns and th\&e manufacturer\fs recommendations. • Do not leave the ph\&one dischar\bed or without a battery fo\&r a lon\b time. Doin\b\& so may cause some d\&ata to be erased. • Your phone contains \&metal, which may cause you to itch, \&or have a rash or \& eczema dependin\b on\& your physical condition. Road Safety • You must exercise pr\&oper control of your vehicle at all\& times. Give your f\&ull attention to drivin\b.\& • Observe all of the \&recommendations contained in your l\&ocal traffic safety \&code. • Pull off the road a\&nd park before maki\&n\b or answerin\b a call\&, if drivin\b condit\&ions require this to be \&done. • Check whether local\& laws and/or re\bulations restrict\& the use of phones \& while drivin\b. • You MUST NOT stop on\& the hard shoulder \& of a hi\bhway to ans\&wer or make a call,\& except in an emer\ben\&cy. • Switch off your pho\&ne at a refuelin\b point, such as a \ba\&s station, even if \&you are not refuelin\b y\&our own car. • Do not store or car\&ry flammable or explosive materials\& in the same compartment as the ph\&one. • Electronic vehicle s\&ystems, such as anti-lock brakes, s\&peed control, and fuel injection syst\&ems are not normally\& affected by radio t\&ransmissions. The manufacturer of suc\&h equipment can advise if it is ade\&quately shielded fr\&om radio transmissions\&. If you suspect vehicle problems ar\&e bein\b caused by radio transmissions\&, consult your deal\&er and do not switch o\&n the handset until \&it has been checked b\&y qualified, approv\&ed installers. Vehicles Equipped wit\rh an Airba\b An airba\b inflates w\&ith \breat force. Do \¬ place objects, incl\&udin\b either install\&ed or portable wireless e\&quipment, in the are\&a over the airba\b or \&in the airba\b deplo\&yment area. If in-vehicl\&e wireless equipmen\&t is improperly installe\&d and the airba\b in\&flates, serious injury cou\&ld result. Third-Party Equipment\r The use of third-pa\&rty equipment, cable\&s or accessories, not ma\&de or authorized by\& the manufacturer, may invalidate the\& warranty of your handset and al\&so adversely affec\&t the handset\fs operation. For ex\&le, use only the manufacturer\fs power cable supp\&lied with the AC char\ber.
Care and Maintenance 40 Care and Maintenance 41 Emer\bency Service Note: Emer\bency service n\&umbers vary by country. They help you to \&\bet emer\bency service from the op\&erator. To make an emer\bency \&call in any country\&: 1. Ensure that your han\&dset is on and in service. 2. Press the Power/End Key to return to idle mode. 3. Enter the local emer\b\&ency number for your current locati\&on, for example, 91\&1. 4. Press the Send Key to dial the number. Follow the instructi\&ons you receive an\&d do not end the call\& until told to do so\&. When the SIM card i\&s not inserted, ente\&r the official emer\bency n\&umber directly and \&press the Send Key or OK Key to dial the number. Notes: • Tell the operator wh\&ich service you require: Police, A\&mbulance, Fire Bri\b\&ade, Coast Guard, or Mou\&ntain Rescue Service. Tell them where you \&are and remain stationary to\& maintain contact if possible. • Due to the nature of\& the cellular syste\&m, the connection of e\&mer\bency calls cannot be \buaranteed\&. You should never rely solely on any\& wireless device f\&or essential communicat\&ions, such as medical emer\bencies.\& Privacy Information Camera usa\be and ph\&oto/audio/video recordin\bs carried \&out with the phone c\&an offend the confident\&iality of the subje\&cts. The user therefore \&is held responsibl\&e for respectin\b le\bis\&lation in matters of confidentiality a\&nd remains the only\& responsible subjec\&t in the case of ev\&entual violations of the e\&nforced norm. Turn on the HAC Setti\rn\b When the HAC settin\b\& is on, your phone\& sends the audio fro\&m your phone calls \&to the telecoil rather \&than to the micropho\&ne of your hearin\b aid. Y\&ou are likely to he\&ar calls much better because \&volume is increased\& and back\bround nois\&e and feedback are\& diminished. The HAC\& settin\b improves only the calls you \&listen to throu\bh the\& earpiece. It does n\&ot affect calls hea\&rd on the speakerphone or\& a headset. It\fs better to turn off the Bluetooth function when the \& HAC settin\b is on. HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your bat\&tery consumption when it\fs turned on. Caution: \bo not turn on the \pHAC setting unless you use a h\pearing aid with a t\pelecoil. Using this setting \pwithout a hearing a\pid or with a hearing aid \pwithout a telecoil\p may \fe harmful to your he\paring. Copyri\bht Notice The video/audio re\&cordin\bs you make/ download are protec\&ted by copyri\bht law\&s. They are for perso\&nal use only and mu\&st not otherwise be used w\&ithout the permissio\&n of the copyri\bht own\&er.

FCC Compliance 47 FCC Compliance 46 FCC Compliance for Part \f5B/Part \f5C This device complie\&s with part 15 of th\&e FCC Rules. Operatio\&n is subject to the \& followin\b two condi\&tions: (1) This dev\&ice may not cause harmfu\&l interference, and\& (2) this device mus\&t accept any interfe\&rence received, includin\&\b interference that \&may cause undesired op\&eration. Caution: Changes or modificat\pions not expressly approved \f\py the manufacturer\p could void the use\pr’s authority to oper\pate the equipment. Note: This equipment has\& been tested and found to comply with\& the limits for a Cl\&ass B di\bital device, pur\&suant to part 15 of \&the FCC Rules. These limits\& are desi\bned to pr\&ovide reasonable protecti\&on a\bainst harmful interference in a r\&esidential installa\&tion. This equipment \bener\&ates, uses, and can\& radiate radio frequ\&ency ener\by and, if\& not installed and used \&in accordance with \&the instructions, may ca\&use harmful interfe\&rence to radio communicati\&ons. However, there is no \buarantee that\& interference will \¬ occur in a particul\&ar installation. If\& this equipment does caus\&e harmful interfere\&nce to radio or televis\&ion reception, whic\&h can be determined by tur\&nin\b the equipment off and on, the use\&r is encoura\bed to \&try to correct the interfer\&ence by one or more\& of the followin\b measur\&es: • Reorient or relocat\&e the receivin\b antenna. • Increase the separa\&tion between the equipment and recei\&ver. • Connect the equipmen\&t into an outlet on \& a circuit different\& from that to which \&the receiver is connec\&ted. • Consult the dealer \&or an experienced \& radio/TV technician\& for help. NONE PART 15B/PART 15C is as belo\&w FCC Compliance This device complie\&s with part 15 of th\&e FCC Rules. Operatio\&n is subject to the \& condition that this \&device does not cau\&se harmful interferenc\&e. Caution: Changes or modificat\pions not expressly approved \f\py the manufacturer\p could void the use\pr’s authority to oper\pate the equipment. M-Ratin\bs: Phones rated M3 or\& M4 meet FCC requirements an\&d are likely to \ben\&erate less interference w\&ith hearin\b devices\& than phones that are not \&labeled. M4 is the \& better/hi\bher of the\& two ratin\bs. T-Ratin\bs: Phones rated T3 or\& T4 meet FCC requirements an\&d are likely to be \&more usable with a heari\&n\b device\fs telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) t\&han unrated phones. T4 \&is the better/hi\bher\& of the two ratin\bs. (No\&te that not all hear\&in\b devices contain tel\&ecoils.) The more immune your\& hearin\b aid device\& is, the less likely\& you are to experie\&nce interference noise \&from your wireless \&phone. Hearin\b aid devices\& should have ratin\b\&s similar to those of \&phones. Ask your h\&earin\b health-care profess\&ional for the ratin\&\b of your hearin\b aid. Hearin\b devices may\& also be measured for immunity to this \&type of interferenc\&e. Your hearin\b device \&manufacturer or hea\&rin\b health professional\& may help you find r\&esults for your hearin\b de\&vice. The more immun\&e your hearin\b aid is\&, the less likely y\&ou are to experience inter\&ference noise from \& wireless devices. For additional info\&rmation about the FCC\fs actions with re\bar\&d to hearin\b aid compatible wireless\& devices and other \& steps the FCC has ta\&ken to ensure that Usin\b Your Phone with a Hearin\b Aid Device Your F160 device is\& compliant with the \&FCC and IC Hearin\b Aid \&Compatibility (HAC) \& requirements. When some wireless \&phones are used near some hearin\b d\&evices (hearin\b aid\&s and cochlear implan\&ts), users may detec\&t a buzzin\b, hummin\b, or\& whinin\b noise. Som\&e hearin\b devices are\& more immune than others to this inter\&ference noise, and\& phones also vary in the am\&ount of interferenc\&e they \benerate. The wirel\&ess telephone indus\&try has developed ratin\&\bs for some of their\& mobile phones to as\&sist hearin\b-device\& users in findin\b phones th\&at may be compatible\& with their hearin\b d\&evices. Not all pho\&nes have been rated. Ph\&ones that have been\& rated have a label \&on the box. Your F160 has been tested for\& hearin\b aid device\& compatibility and ha\&s an M[4] and/or T[4] ratin\b. These ratin\bs are n\&ot \buaranteed. Resul\&ts will vary, dependin\b on the \&level of immunity of your hearin\b dev\&ice and the de\bree \&of your hearin\b loss. \&If your hearin\b dev\&ice happens to be vulne\&rable to interferen\&ce, you may not be able\& to use a rated pho\&ne successfully. Tryin\b out the phone \&with your hearin\b device is t\&he best way to eval\&uate it for your personal \&needs.

FCC Compliance 48 This model phone me\&ets the \bovernment\fs requirements for ex\&posure to radio wav\&es. This phone is desi\&\bned and manufacture\&d not to exceed the em\&ission limits for exposure to radio f\&requency (RF) ener\&\by set by the Federal Commu\&nications Commission\& of the U.S. Governm\&ent: The exposure standa\&rd for wireless mob\&ile phones employs a un\&it of measurement known as the Specifi\&c Absorption Rate, \& or SAR. The SAR li\&mit set by the FCC i\&s 1.6 W/k\b.* Tests for SAR are co\&nducted usin\b standard oper\&atin\b positions acce\&pted by the FCC with the \&phone transmittin\b at its hi\bhest certifi\&ed power level in \&all tested frequency ba\&nds. Althou\bh the SA\&R is determined at the\& hi\bhest certified po\&wer level, the actual S\&AR level of the pho\&ne while operatin\b can\& be well below the \& maximum value. This is because the phone is desi\bned to operate \&at multiple power le\&vels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In \bene\&ral, the closer you\& are to a wireless base sta\&tion antenna, the lo\&wer the power output. The hi\bhest SAR val\&ue for the model ph\&one as reported to the F\&CC when tested for \&use at the ear is 1.08 \&W/k\b and when worn \&on the body, as described in \&this user \buide, is 0.693 W/k\b. (Bod\&y-worn measurements \& differ amon\b phone \&models, dependin\b upon available enh\&ancements and FCC requirements.) While there may be \&differences between\& the SAR levels of i\&ndividual F160 pho\&nes and at various posi\&tions, they all meet\& the \bovernment requireme\&nt. The FCC has \branted\& an Equipment Authorization for th\&is model phone with\& all reported SAR le\&vels evaluated as i\&n compliance with the \&FCC RF exposure \buidelines. SAR inf\&ormation on this mod\&el phone is on file wi\&th the FCC and can \&be found under the Dis\&play Grant section \&of http://www.fcc.\bov/oet/ea/fcc\&id/ after searchin\b on FCC ID\&: Q78-ZTEF160. For body-worn oper\&ation, this phone h\&as been tested and meet\&s the FCC RF exposu\&re \buidelines for use \&with an accessory t\&hat contains no metal an\&d that positions the\& handset a minimum of\& 1.5 cm from the bod\&y. Use of other enhanc\&ements may not ensur\&e compliance with FCC RF exposure \buidelines. If you do not use a\& body-worn accesso\&ry and are not holdin\b the \&phone at the ear, position the handset a minimu\&m of 1.5 cm from you\&r body when the phone\& is switched on. * In the United States\& and Canada, the SA\&R limit for mobile p\&hones used by the p\&ublic is 1.6 watts/\&k\b (W/k\b) avera\bed over one \b\&ram of tissue. The \&standard incorporat\&es a substantial mar\&\bin of safety to \biv\&e additional protection for the p\&ublic and to accoun\&t for any variation\&s in measurements.
