•

Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the

battery.

•

The battery may need recharging if it has not been

used for a long period of time.

•

It's best to replace the battery when it no longer

provides acceptable performance. It can be

recharged hundreds of times before it needs

replacing.

•

Don't store the battery in high temperature areas for

long periods of time. It's best to follow the storage

rule:

▪

-4° F to 104° F (-20° C to 40° C)

Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries

Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as

you can be burned.

For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries,

contact your nearest Sprint authorized service center.

Special Note: Be sure to dispose of your battery

properly. In some areas, the disposal of batteries in

household or business trash may be prohibited.

Radio Frequency (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 radio

frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the

system handling your call controls the power level.

Knowing 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

Important Safety Information

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).

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure

guidelines, if you wear a handset on your body, use

a Sprint-supplied or Sprint-approved carrying case,

holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not

use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at

least 7/24 inch (1.0 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

website at fcc.gov .

FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with co-location compliance requirements for built-in

Bluetooth and WLAN. This equipment must not be

co-located or operated in conjunction with any other

antenna or transmitter.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for

Wireless Phones

The FCC's RF exposure standards employ a unit of

measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate

(SAR).

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,
