Battery indicator
Battery indicator light is located at the top of your phone. When Battery is low, the light
will turn red and stay lit until charged.
Charging the Battery
Your Hop-on HOP1800 is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery.
Charge the battery before using the phone. A new battery will reach its nominal
capacity after fully charged and discharged a few times later. In order to use the battery
at its optimum mode, we recommend discharging the battery completely once a month.
To do so, simply keep your phone on until the battery runs out. To charge the battery,
attach it to the phone, then, connect the supplied AC adapter. The handset can be
charged under both ON or OFF status.
Notes on Charging:
When charging the battery, avoid:
- Charging for long periods of time. It will reduce battery life.
- Charging in temperatures below 32°F (0°C) or over 104°F (40°C).
- Charging the battery in direct sunlight or in places with high humidity (such as
bathroom).
Do not expose the battery to temperatures above 140°F (60°C). For example, do not leave
the battery in direct sunlight on the dashboard of a vehicle.
It is normal for the battery to become slightly warm during charging or using.
Be sure to switch off the handset before unloading the battery, otherwise, it will shorten
the life span of the handset and the data saved may be lost.
Checking the Battery
The battery lasts approximately as indicated in the following table before it needs to be
recharged. Battery life may vary depending on conditions of use.
Type of battery Standby time Talking time

SAR Certification Information
THIS PHONE COMPLIES WITH ALL GOVERNMENT GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO FREQUENCY.
Your handset is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for radio
frequency (RF) exposure set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic
and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. Included are substantial safety margins
designed to assure the safety of the population, regardless of age and health. The
exposure for wireless mobile phones works with a unit of measurement known as
“Specific Absorption Rate,” or SAR. The SAR limits are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified level in all tested frequency bands. 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 required to reach the network. In general, the closer you
are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The phone model
available for sale to the public 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 carrying it close
to the body) as required by the FCC for each model. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels depending on phones and at different positions, they all meet
the government requirements. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for
this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC
RF exposure guidelines.
*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.
