Bluetooth
9.1 Bluetooth Modes
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can
exchange information over a distance of about eight meters (ꢀ6 feet) without requiring a physical connection.
Bluetooth on your device operates in three different modes:
•
•
On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa.
Visible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your device.
Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using Bluetooth.
•
Note Turn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless device is
prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals.
To turn Bluetooth on and make your device visible
1. Tap Start > Settings > Communications and then tap Bluetooth.
Tip You can also tap Start > Settings > All Settings > Connections tab and then tap Bluetooth.
2. When prompted to turn on Bluetooth, tap Yes.
3. Tap the Settings tab (
), and then tap Not Discoverable.
4. Tap the drop-down menu and then select Always Visible.
Note If you select Visible for 60 seconds, Bluetooth visibility will turn off automatically when the time elapses and
your device has not yet connected to another Bluetooth device.
5. Tap Done. The
icon then appears in the title bar to indicate that the device is in visible mode.
Tip
To easily switch Bluetooth off or back on, tap Start > Settings > Communications to open the Comm Manager and
then tap Bluetooth’s OFF/ON slider.
Your device remembers whether visible mode was previously enabled or disabled. If you did not disable visible
mode, switching Bluetooth on in the Comm Manager also puts your device in visible mode automatically. For more
information about using the Comm Manager, see Chapter 13.
9.2 Bluetooth Partnerships
A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your device and another Bluetooth-enabled
device in order to exchange information in a secure manner.

2. On the Settings tab (
), tap Add a device.
3. Tap a Bluetooth device to connect with.
4. Specify a passcode, which can be 1 up to 16 characters, to establish a secure connection, and then tap OK.
Note Your device uses Bluetooth ꢀ.1 with the Secure Simple Pairing feature. If the other Bluetooth device you are
pairing with also supports the same feature, the passcode will be automatically created and displayed on both
devices. Both you and other party simply need to verify that the passcode is the same and tap Yes to establish
the partnership.
5. After the receiving party accepts the partnership, the Bluetooth device name is shown on the screen,
including all Bluetooth services that you can use with it. Select the check boxes of the Bluetooth services
you want to use, and then tap Done.
6. If you selected to use the Bluetooth Serial Port service of the paired device, select a local serial port to

Creating a Bluetooth partnership between two devices is a one-time process. Once a partnership is created, the
devices can recognize the partnership and exchange information without entering a passcode again.
To accept a Bluetooth partnership
1. Ensure that Bluetooth is turned on and in visible mode.
2. When prompted, enter or accept the passcode (the same passcode from the device requesting the
partnership) to establish a secure connection.
3. Tap OK. The paired device now appears in the Devices tab (
). You can now exchange information

Navigating on the Road
10.1 Guidelines and Preparation for Using GPS
If you installed a GPS navigation software on your device, follow these guidelines before and when using your
device for GPS navigation.
•
When using GPS navigation software in the car, always plot your GPS route before starting to drive. Do
not try to configure the GPS navigation software while driving.
•
•
The plotted GPS route is only for driving reference. It should not interfere with actual driving behavior.
Do not leave your device in a vehicle or expose the device to direct sunlight to avoid overheating the
battery, which could pose damage to the device or risk to the vehicle.
•
When using the device inside a vehicle, use the car holder to mount the device securely in place. Avoid
placing the device in the areas shown in the following diagram:
1 Do not place where it will block the driver’s vision.
2 Do not place where air bags could deploy.
3 Do not place anywhere in the vehicle without securing the device in the holder.
•
•
Use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any damages resulting from negligent operation
of the system.
The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent objects. Signal reception may be affected by
obstructions such as high-rise buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, weather (rainy or cloudy days), etc. If
the vehicle’s visor contains metal, it will be difficult for the GPS signal to pass through.
•
•
Other nearby wireless communication products (such as mobile phones or radar-detecting devices) may
interfere with the satellite signal, resulting in unstable signal reception.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the US Defense Department. The
Department is responsible for the accuracy and maintenance of the system. Any changes that the
Department makes may affect the accuracy and function of the GPS system.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, ꢀ003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-
309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act)
to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure
reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. While some wireless
phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference
noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry
has developed a rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing device users find phones that may be
compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating
on their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the
user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you
may not be able to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best
way to evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to
hearing devices than phones that are not rated. 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 aid’s
telecoil than phones that are not rated. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
RHOD500 complies with the FCC’s requirements for hearing aid compatibility when using the CDMA air
interface. The M rating in this mode is M4 and the T rating in this mode is T3.
Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you
find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune
to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then
added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is
considered for better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the Mꢀ level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level
rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage”while
using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage”in this context is defined as a signal
quality that is acceptable for normal operation.
This methodology applies equally for T ratings. The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The
T mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance
for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section ꢀ0.19 of the
FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

•
•
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-199ꢀ.
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986.
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996.
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phone employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg*.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/
GenericSearch.cfm after searching on FCC ID: NM8RHOD500. Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web-site as http://
www.phonefacts.net.
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in usage.
Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile
radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the
safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 1.5 cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any
metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a
damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
