The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by Anatel is 2.0 W/kg.*
Additional information on SAR values can be found
on the web site of CTIA (Cellular
Telecommunications and Internet Association), at
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the standards of
Anatel, with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level, in all frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
phone while operating may be well below the
maximum value. This is because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels, so as
to use only the power required to reach the
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR
limit for mobile phones 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 to
the public, and to account for any variation
in measurement.
Caution
The user is cautioned that changes or
modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the warranty
and user’s authority to operate the equipment.
network. In general, the closer the telephone is to a
radio base station, the lower the power transmitted.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested, approved, and certified by
Anatel that it does not exceed the limit of the
government requirements related to safety in the
event of exposure to interference.
Optimize your phone’s performance
Use the guidelines on <Blue>page 1 to learn how
to optimize the performance and life of your phone
and battery.
The tests are conducted in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and used next to the body)
specified by Anatel for each model. The highest
values of the SAR for this phone model are
described below in accordance with the technical
certificate of compliance.
Air bags
If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or
portable phone equipment or other objects over the
air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
equipment is not properly installed, you and your
passengers risk serious injury.
While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirements with
regard to safe exposure.
Anatel has granted an equipment authorization for
this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the radio
frequency emission guidelines of Anatel.
Medical devices
Pacemakers—Warning to pacemaker wearers:
Wireless phones, when in the ‘on’ position, have
been shown to interfere with pacemakers. The
phone should be kept at least six (6) inches away
from the pacemaker to reduce risk.
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
and the wireless technology research community
recommend that you follow these guidelines to
minimize the potential for interference.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with
Anatel and can be found at its web site.
•
Always keep the phone at least six inches
(15 centimeters) away from your pacemaker
when the phone is turned on.
•
Do not carry your phone near your heart.

chemicals
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as
propane or butane
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 engine
Hearing aids—Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your service
provider or call the customer service line to
discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices—If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the manufacturer of the
device to determine if it is adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Your physician may be
able to help you obtain this information.
Use with care
Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid
dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.
Keep phone dry
If the phone gets wet, turn the power off
immediately and contact your dealer. Water
damage may not be covered under warranty.
In health care facilities—Turn your phone off in health
care facilities when instructed. Hospitals and
health care facilities may be using equipment that
is sensitive to external RF energy.
Resetting the phone
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does
not respond to keypresses, reset the phone by
completing the following steps:
Potentially unsafe areas
Posted facilities—Turn your phone off in any facility
when posted notices require you to do so.

Remove the battery door.
Remove and replace the battery.
Vehicles—RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer of the
device to determine if it is adequately shielded
from external RF energy.
Blasting areas—Turn off your phone where blasting is
in progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive atmospheres—Turn off your phone
when you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or death.
If the problem persists, return the phone to the
dealer for service.
Accessories
Use only Kyocera-approved accessories with
Kyocera phones. Use of any unauthorized
accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate
the phone warranty if said accessories cause
damage or a defect to the phone.
