Your phone features earSmart™, an intelligent voice processor that delivers a clear voice experience, allowing you to hear and be heard™ in
nearly any environment. earSmart technology uses the science of human hearing to distinguish sounds, identify your voice and suppress
surrounding noise, for clear conversations just about anywhere.
How Does It Work?
•
The earSmart voice processor in your phone captures your voice and all the sounds around you.
•
Working like the human ear, it processes and distinguishes these sounds, isolates your voice conversation, and removes background noise - from both ends
of a call.
•
•
It also automatically equalizes and adjusts voice volume so you can hear and talk naturally, even in the noisiest places.
With earSmart technology, you can talk where you want, and have clear conversations for mobile calls, video chats, even speakerphone calls, without
worrying about surrounding noise.

Joining Contact Information
Many people now maintain multiple email accounts, social
networking logins, and other similar account information. For
example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a
corporate email account login because they are maintained
separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts such as
Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Corporate email, and Google. When

you synchronize your phone with these accounts, each account
creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.
4. Tap the second contact entry (the entry you want to join an
entry to). The second contact is now joined with the first and
the account information is merged into one screen.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith, for example) has a regular
email account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook
account under her maiden and married name, as well as a Yahoo!
chat account, when you merge these accounts into your Contacts
list you can join all of her entries and view the information in one
record.
Note: The information is still maintained in both entries, but displays in one
record for easier viewing when you join the contacts.
5. Tap the joined contacts bar to view the contact information
you joined. The contacts and information displays with an
icon next to the contact name to indicate what type of
account information is contained in the entry.
The next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts,
any updates that contacts make to email account names, email
addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.

Health and Safety Information
153
manufacturers of your electronic devices to solve any interference
problems you experience.
• Your phone may be damaged by exposure to magnetic fields. Do
not use carrying cases or accessories with magnetic closures or
allow your phone to come in contact with magnetic fields for
extended periods of time.
Protect batteries and chargers from damage
• Avoid exposing batteries to very cold or very hot temperatures
(below 0° C/32° F or above 45° C/113° F). Extreme
temperatures can reduce the charging capacity and life of your
batteries.
Reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries
While using your phone, hold it with a relaxed grip, press the keys
lightly, use special features that reduce the number of keys you
have to press (such as templates and predictive text), and take
frequent breaks.
• Prevent batteries from contacting metal objects, as this can
create a connection between the + and - terminals of your
batteries and lead to temporary or permanent battery damage.
• Never use a damaged charger or battery.
Warranty Disclaimer: Proper use of a touch
screen handset
Handle your phone carefully and sensibly
• Do not disassemble your phone due to a risk of electric shock.
• Do not allow your phone to get wet—liquids can cause serious
damage and will change the colour of the label that indicates
water damage inside the phone. Do not handle your phone with
wet hands. Water damage to your phone can void your
manufacturer’s warranty.
If your handset has a touchscreen display, please note that a
touchscreen responds best to a light touch from the pad of your
finger or a non-metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic
object when pressing on the touchscreen may damage the
tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For more
information, please refer to “Warranty Information” on page 161.
• Avoid using or storing your phone in dusty, dirty areas to prevent
damage to moving parts.
UL Certified Travel Adapter
The Travel Adapter for this phone has met applicable UL safety
requirements. Please adhere to the following safety instructions
per UL guidelines.
• Your phone is a complex electronic device—protect it from
impacts and rough handling to avoid serious damage.
• Do not paint your phone, as paint can clog moving parts and
prevent proper operation.
154
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY
LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND POSSIBLE
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS.
DANGER - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, CAREFULLY FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Allow only qualified personnel to service your phone
Allowing unqualified personnel to service your phone may result in
damage to your phone and will void your warranty.
FOR CONNECTION TO A SUPPLY NOT IN NORTH AMERICA,
USE AN ATTACHMENT PLUG ADAPTOR OF THE PROPER
CONFIGURATION FOR THE POWER OUTLET. THIS POWER
UNIT IS INTENDED TO BE CORRECTLY ORIENTATED IN A
VERTICAL OR HORIZONTAL OR FLOOR MOUNT POSITION.
Ensure maximum battery and charger life
• Avoid charging batteries for more than a week, as overcharging
may shorten battery life.
• Over time, unused batteries will discharge and must be
recharged before use.
Important usage information
Signal Strength
• Disconnect chargers from power sources when not in use.
• Use batteries only for their intended purpose.
Handle SIM and memory cards with care
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal
strength in your area. Your phone informs you of the current signal
strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength
icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you’re
inside a building, being near a window may give you better
reception.
• Do not remove a card while the phone is transferring or
accessing information, as this could result in loss of data and/or
damage to the card or phone.
• Protect cards from strong shocks, static electricity, and electrical
noise from other devices.
• Frequent writing and erasing will shorten the life span of memory
cards.
Health and Safety Information
155
• Do not touch gold-coloured contacts or terminals with your
fingers or metal objects. If dirty, wipe the card with a soft cloth.

Ensure access to emergency services
This phone is compliant with RoHS.
Emergency calls from your phone may not be possible in some
areas or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or
undeveloped areas, plan an alternate method of contacting
emergency services personnel.
Radio frequency safety
The 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).
Correct disposal of this product
The product and its electronic accessories (e.g., charger, headset,
USB cable) should not be disposed of with other household waste

environment or human health from uncontrolled waste disposal,
please separate these items from other types of waste and recycle
them responsibly to promote the sustainable reuse of material
resources.
Correct disposal of batteries in this product
The batteries in this product should not be disposed of with other
household waste at the end of their working life.
Where marked, the chemical symbols Hg, Cd or Pb indicate that
the battery contains mercury, cadmium or lead above reference
levels. If batteries are not properly disposed of, these substances
can cause harm to human health or the environment.
156
Acknowledging special precautions and Industry Canada
notice
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)
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.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits of a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
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.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation; if this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a
substantial margin of safety. SAR values at or below the federal
standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public.
• Reorient / relocate the receiving antenna.
Maximum measured SAR values for the I727R are:
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
GSM 850: Head 0.27 W/kg, Body-worn 0.36 W/kg
GSM 1900: Head 0.19 W/kg, Body-worn 0.47 W/kg
WCDMA 850: Head 0.24 W/kg, Body-worn 0.44 W/kg
WCDMA 1900: Head 0.30 W/kg, Body-worn 0.42 W/kg
700MHz LTE: Head 0.10 W/kg, Body-worn 0.21 W/kg
LTE AWS: Head 0.28 W/kg, Body-worn 0.55 W/kg
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult your dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
