The guidelines are based on standards that were  
developed by independent scientific organizations  
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific  
studies. The standards include a substantial safety  
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,  
regardless of age and health.  
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this  
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in  
compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR  
information on this model phone is on file with the FCC  
and can be found under the Display Grant section at  
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on the  
FCC ID: OVFKWC-S6000-150.  
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones  
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.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard  
operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone  
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested  
frequency bands.  
Additional information on SAR can be found on the  
Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association  
(CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.  
* 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 for the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements.  
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified  
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while  
operating can 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 network. In general, the closer you are to a  
wireless base station antenna, the lower the  
power output.  
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.  
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public,  
it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not  
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted  
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed  
in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on  
the body) as required by the FCC for each model.  
Optimize your phone’s performance  
Use the guidelines on page 2 to learn how to optimize the  
performance and life of your phone and battery.  
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.  
Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,  
depending upon availability of accessories and FCC  
requirements. While there may be differences between  
the SAR levels of various phones and at various  
positions, they all meet the government requirement for  
safe exposure.

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.  
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.  
Blasting areas—Turn off your phone where blasting is in  
progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any  
regulations or rules.  
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association and the  
wireless technology research community recommend  
that you follow these guidelines to minimize the potential  
for interference.  
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.  
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.  
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.  
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is  
taking place, turn off your phone immediately.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often,  
but not always, clearly marked.  
They include:  
fueling areas such as gas stations  
below deck on boats  
transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals  
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as  
propane or butane  
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.  
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  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Potentially unsafe areas  
Posted facilities—Turn your phone off in any facility when  
posted notices require you to do so.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings  
for some of their mobile phones to assist hearing device  
users in finding phones that may be compatible with their  
hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.  
Resetting the phone  
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does not  
respond to keypresses, reset the phone by completing  
the following steps:  
Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a  
label on the box. The ratings are not guarantees, and  
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.

Remove the battery door.  
Remove and reinstall the battery  
(see “Installing the battery” on page 1).  
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.  
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 labeled. M4  
is the better/higher of the two ratings.  
To shop online for phone accessories, visit  
T-Ratings— Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC 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  
that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)  
To order by phone, call 800-349-4188 (U.S.A. only) or  
858-882-1410.  
Radio Frequency (RF) energy  
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When  
it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy. Your service  
provider’s network controls the power of the RF signal.  
This power level can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watts.  
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to  
this type of interference. Your hearing device  
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help  
you choose the proper rating for your mobile phone. The  
more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are  
to experience interference noise from mobile phones.  
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) with Mobile Phones  
Some mobile phones and hearing devices (hearing aids  
and cochlear implants), when used together, result in  
buzzing, humming, or whining noises detected by the  
user. Some hearing devices are more immune than  
others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in  
the amount of interference they generate.  
For more information about hearing aid compatibility, visit  
the FCC's Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau  
Web site at www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
