Important Safety Information In This Section ⽧ General Precautions ⽧ Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device ⽧ Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device ⽧ TTY Use With Sprint PCS Service ⽧ Caring for the Battery ⽧ Radiofrequency (RF) Energy ⽧ Static Electricity, ESD, and Your Device ⽧ Owner’s Record ⽧ User’s Guide Proprietary Notice Important Safety Information Safety This guide contains important operational and safety information that will help you safely use your Treo™ 700P
General Precautions There are several simple guidelines to operating your device properly and maintaining safe, satisfactory service. 䢇 Hold the device with the antenna over your shoulder. 䢇 Try not to hold, bend, or twist the device’s antenna. 䢇 Don’t use the device if the antenna is damaged. 䢇 Speak directly into the microphone. 䢇 Avoid exposing your device and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your device does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.
Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Device Do Not Rely on Your Device’s Phone for Emergency Calls Wireless phones such as the one on your Treo device operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communication (for example, medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
䢇 䢇 䢇 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. Note: Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories. Restricting Children’s Access to Your Device Your Treo device is not a toy.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device Your Treo™ 700P smart device is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) requirements. For additional HAC information, including the HAC rating of this product, please refer to www.palm.com/treoHAC. Your device has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating of six for “best use.” Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store. With the Sprint 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the phone within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.
TTY Use With Sprint PCS Service A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to communicate by telephone. Your device is compatible with select TTY devices. You can connect a TTY/TDD machine, headset, or hands-free kit to your device through the headset jack while this mode is enabled.
Caring for the Battery Protecting Your Battery Important Safety Information 109 Safety The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance. 䢇 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, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards.
䢇 Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It’s best to follow these storage rules: 䡲 Less than one month: -4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C) 䡲 More than one month: -4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C) Disposal of Lithium Ion (LiIon) Batteries Do 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.
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy Understanding How Your Phone Operates Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode. Knowing Radiofrequency Safety The design of your Sprint PCS Treo device complies with updated NCRP standards described below.
Body-Worn Operation To 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 body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC Web site at www.fcc.gov.
The highest reported (FCC) SAR values of the Treo™ 700P smart device by Palm are: Maximum SAR Values CDMA Cellular CDMA PCS Held to Ear 1.48 (W/Kg) 1.13 (W/Kg) Body-Worn .896 (W/Kg) .589 (W/Kg) The highest reported (FCC) SAR values of the Treo™ 700P smart device by Palm on the Sprint Power Vision Network (EVDO mode) are: Maximum SAR Values Body-Worn EVDO Cellular .801 (W/Kg) EVDO PCS .
Static Electricity, ESD, and Your Device Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to electronic devices if discharged into the device, so you should take steps to avoid such an occurrence. Description of ESD Static electricity is an electrical charge caused by the buildup of excess electrons on the surface of a material. To most people, static electricity and ESD are nothing more than annoyances.
to your computer, placing the device in a cradle, or connecting it to any other device. You can do this in many ways, including the following: 䢇 Ground yourself when you’re holding your device by simultaneously touching a metal surface that is at earth ground. For example, if your computer has a metal case and is plugged into a standard three-prong grounded outlet, touching the case should discharge the ESD on your body. 䢇 Increase the relative humidity of your environment.
