Sanyo Katana 2 Manual

							Section 4A: ImportantSafety Information 205
Turning Off Your Phone Before FlyingTurn 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.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous AreasTo avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a
blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating twoway radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remotecontrol 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:
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.
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your PhoneYour 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.
Note:Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your
phone or accessories.

Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
A number of SprintNextel 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 KATANA II by SANYO
has an M4 rating.
These ratings are notguarantees. 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.
MRatings: 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.)
TRatings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meetFCC 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 thatnotall 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:
Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use.
Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.
Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable. 
						

							Section 4A: ImportantSafety Information 207
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.
SprintNextel 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. With
the Sprint 30day RiskFree Guarantee, you may return the phone within 30
days of purchase for a full refund. More information about hearing aid
compatibility may be found at: 
www.fcc.gov, www.fda.gov, andwww.accesswireless.org.
Getting the Best Hearing Device Experience 
With Your Phone
To further minimize interference:
Set the phone’s Display and Keypad backlight settings to ensure the
minimum time interval:
1.Select> Settings > Display > Backlight.
2.SelectMain LCD, Key, or Sub LCD.
3.Select the minimum time interval setting and press  .
Position the phone so the internal antenna is farthest from your 
hearing aid.
Move the phone around to find the point with least interference.

Caring for the Battery
Protecting Your BatteryThe guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s
performance.
Recently 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,
aftermarketbrand 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 manufacturerapproved batteries and accessories found at
Sprint Stores or through your phone’s manufacturer, or call 1866343
1114 to order. They’re also available at
www.sprint.com— click theWirelessoption under “Personal,” and then click Accessories. Buying
the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they’re
genuine and safe.
In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that
range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C).
Don’tuse the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity
areas, such as the bathroom.
Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean.
Don
’t attempt to disassemble or shortcircuit the battery.
The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period
of time.
It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
4° F to 140° F (20° C to 60° C)
More than one month:
4° F to 113° F (20° C to 45° C) 
						

							Section 4A: ImportantSafety Information 209
Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) BatteriesDo not handle a damaged or leaking LiIon battery as you can be burned.
For safe disposal options of your LiIon 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) Energy
Understanding How Your Phone OperatesYour 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 SafetyThe 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).
BodyWorn OperationTo maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the Sprint supplied or approved carrying case,
holster or other bodyworn accessory. If you do not use a bodyworn
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 2.2 centimeters from your body
when transmitting. Use of nonSprintapproved accessories may violate
FCC RF exposure guidelines. 
For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at
www.fcc.gov.

							210Section 4A: Important Safety Information
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The 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 highest 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 KATANA II (SCP6650) are:
Cellular CDMA mode (Part 22):Head: 0.221 W/kg; Bodyworn: 0.279 W/kg
PCS mode (Part24):Head: 0.554 W/kg; Bodyworn: 0.258 W/kg
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. 
FCC ID number: AEZSCP6650.
