The Tough Mobile is water and dust
resistant (IP67). In order to maintain
the water and dust resistance the
battery cover, the USB connector
cover and the headset cover must
be properly closed.
Submerging the Tough Mobile in water will
degrade touch screen responsiveness and
audio quality. The restoration of touch screen
responsiveness and normal audio quality will
require all water to be wiped off the touch
screen and completely dried from the ear-
piece and loudspeaker openings.

Important
customer information
The Tough Mobile is a wireless device, con taining a
radio transmitter and receiver which emit radio fre-
quency energy during its use. Most modern electron-
ic equipment is shield ed from RF signals. However,
certain elec
tronic equipment may not be shielded
against the radio signals from a wireless phone.
Do not use the Tough Mobile near medical
equipment without permission. A minimum of six
(6) inches should be maintained between the Tough
Mobile and an implantable medical device, such
as a pacemaker or implantable cardiac defibrilla-
tor in order to avoid potential interference with the
medical device. Persons having implanted medical
devices should follow instructions from the manu-
facturer of the medical device for safe use within
proximity of wireless devices. Wireless phones may
also interfere with some hearing aids. In the event
of such interference, consult the service provider or
call customer service line to discuss alternatives.
Radio signals may interfere with improperly in-
stalled or inadequately shielded electronic systems
in motor vehicles. Check with the vehicle manufac-
turer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
Aftermarket electronics which have been added to
the vehicle should also be checked.
Any modification of the Tough Mobile is prohib-
ited. Only authorized personnel should service the
Tough Mobile and its accessories.
Only use software updates provided by Bittium.
Accessories for the Tough Mobile should be either
purchased from or approved by Bittium.
Only use the battery specified by and provided
by Bittium in the Tough Mobile. Do not short-circuit
the battery. Do not use the battery with a charging
system which has not been approved by Bittium.

Bittium Tough Mobile Quick start guide 17

posted notices so require.
To avoid interfering with blasting operations
turn Tough Mobile OFF when in a blasting area or
in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all
signs and instructions.
Turn the Tough Mobile OFF when in areas with
a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all
signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not always, marked
clearly. Potential areas may include fueling areas
(such as gas stations); below deck on boats; fuel
or chemical transfer or storage facilities; 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);
and any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
An emergency call can be made only within a
service area. For an emergency call, make sure
that you are within a service area and that the de-
vice is turned on.
The device does not meet all specifications in
extreme temperatures. Battery capacity (use time)
is limited in low temperatures and the battery is not
charged under 0°C temperatures. Device perfor-
mance may be limited in high temperatures.

Specific absorption rate (SAR)
certification information
This device has been shown to be capable of com-
pliance for localized specific absorption rate (SAR)
for uncontrolled environment/general population
exposure limits specified in ANSI/IEEE Std. C95.1-
1992 and has been tested in accordance with the

sorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC
is 1.6W/kg. The standard incorporates a substan-
tial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations.
The highest SAR value reported under these
guidelines when used at the ear is 0.79 W/kg and
when correctly worn on the body is 1.06W/kg.
