Exposure to radio frequency energy
IsatPhone 2 is a radio transmitter and receiver. When the
phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned on, it emits low
levels of radio frequency energy. The phone is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the safety limits for
exposure to radio frequencies (RF) as recommended by
the ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionising
Radiation Protection) and as adopted within mandatory
standards of the European Commission and the United
States of America.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using
a mobile phone. IsatPhone 2 is compliant with the EC
standards for exposure specified in EN 50360 and EN
62209-1:2006. For use of the phone at the ear, these
standards set a SAR limit of 2.0 W/kg averaged over a 10g
volume.
IsatPhone 2 is also compliant with the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) standards and
test procedures as reflected in the requirements of 47
CFR 2.1093 and FCC OET 65 Supplement C. For use of
the phone at the ear, these standards set a SAR limit
of 1.6 W/kg averaged over a 1g volume.
Tests for SAR are conducted in accordance with
international guidelines for testing using standard
operating positions as per the procedures for the
applicable standards, with the device transmitting at
the highest certified power levels in all operational
frequency bands.
Note: Note: The SAR requirements for IsatPhone 2 are
met for radiating operation whilst handheld at the ear.
No measures have been taken for SAR compliance when
radiating in a body-mounted position. Hence, radiating
operation of the IsatPhone 2 is not recommended when in
a body-mounted position.
It should be noted that the IsatPhone 2 is not capable
of radiating when the antenna is in the stowed position.
Hence, when operating in ‘incoming call alerting’ mode
(see page 19) with the antenna stowed, (either with or
without the handset in the holster), the handset cannot
radiate and may be body-mounted without posing a
safety/health risk.
Pacemakers
Wireless phones may adversely affect the operation of
some implanted cardiac pacemakers and other medically
implanted equipment. Pacemaker patients should be
aware that the use of an IsatPhone 2 in close proximity to
a pacemaker might cause the device to malfunction. If a
minimum distance of 15cm is kept between an IsatPhone 2
and a pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you
have any reason to suspect interference is occurring,
immediately switch off your IsatPhone 2. Contact your
cardiologist for more information.
Hearing aids
Although most modern hearing aids are immune to
radio frequency interference from satellite terminals,
some wireless devices may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference from the use

of the IsatPhone 2, maintain additional separation
between you and your IsatPhone 2 and/or consult
with your doctor or audiologist.
Other medical devices
Although most modern electronic medical equipment
in hospitals and other clinical environments is shielded
from RF energy, there is still a risk that a wireless device
could cause interference. As such, never use your
IsatPhone 2 near electronic medical equipment without
first requesting permission.
Blasting areas and potentially
explosive environments
As with any wireless phone, do not use your IsatPhone 2
where blasting work is in progress. Observe all restrictions
and follow any regulations or rules. Do not use your
IsatPhone 2 in areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Note that such areas are often, but not
always, clearly marked.
Battery safety
Use only Inmarsat-supplied or approved batteries,
and recharge your battery with Inmarsat-supplied
or approved chargers for the phone. Use of batteries
that are not Inmarsat-supplied or approved may
pose increased safety risks.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, as they may
explode. See Care and maintenance on page 58, and
for guidance on the disposal of batteries and electronic
equipment, see page 62.
Batteries may burn or explode if damaged. Do not
dismantle, open, bend or cut cells or batteries. Do not
attempt to modify or remanufacture the battery. Do not
immerse or expose the battery to water or other liquids.
In the event of a battery leak, avoid contact of contents
with skin or eyes. If this does happen, flush the affected
areas with water and seek medical help as appropriate.
Children
Keep out of the reach of children. Do not allow children
to play with your phone or accessories. They could
hurt themselves or others. Products may contain
small parts that could become detached and create
a choking hazard.

Driving
Only use IsatPhone 2 in a vehicle using an Inmarsat-
approved vehicular docking unit. Check with the vehicle
manufacturer to be sure that your phone or Bluetooth
will not affect the electronic systems in the vehicle.
Full attention should be given to driving at all times and
local laws and regulations restricting the use of electronic
and wireless devices while driving must be observed.
Loudness warning
Avoid volume levels that may be harmful to your hearing.
Pinch hazard
Take care when opening and closing the antenna of
your phone, as it may be possible to trap a fingertip.
Land use only
The IsatPhone 2 is approved for land use only.

USING YOUR ISATPHONE 2
Your IsatPhone makes and receives calls by
communicating with Inmarsat satellites in orbit above
the equator. Your phone antenna must be deployed
and there must be a clear line of sight to an Inmarsat
satellite for you to make and receive calls.
Connecting to the satellite
Switch your phone on, hold down the red key for a
few seconds until the screen lights up. The Inmarsat logo
will appear followed by the main screen.
If prompted to enter a PIN, enter the PIN code. The
PIN is originally set by your service provider which you
can reset. See Setting up SIM PIN code on page 54
for more information.
Stand outside with a clear
view of the sky with the
phone antenna pointing
upwards. There must be a
clear line of sight between
the phone’s antenna and
the satellite.
The more sky you can
see the stronger the
signal should be from
the satellite. If open sky
makes up about 70%
of your view when you
look up, then the signal
should be strong.
Searching satellite will appear on the screen. When
your phone is connected to the satellite, the screen will
display Ready for service. The top left of the screen
will display Inmarsat.
The signal bars indicate the signal strength. At least
two signal bars are required to make and receive calls.

Using the eCompass function
In order to connect to the network, the handset needs
to acquire a GPS fix. This happens automatically. If
you are unable to obtain a GPS fix, or your fix is out of
date, your search will fail and a red circular icon will be
displayed in the status bar on screen. The handset will
display information to assist you in acquiring a GPS fix. To
maximise your chances of obtaining a GPS fix as quickly as
possible, stand outside with a clear view of the sky.
Finding a satellite
If the handset is unable to register to the network, or if the
received signal strength falls during a call, the eCompass
function is automatically displayed on-screen. It helps by
showing the direction towards the best Inmarsat satellite.
In response, you must point the antenna until the on-
screen satellite image turns green. You need to ensure
that, in the direction indicated, there is clear line of sight
to the sky and no obstructions. The eCompass is never
displayed while the handset is correctly connected to
the network. When it appears, turn towards the satellite
in the direction indicated. The on-screen satellite image
changes to green to show that you are pointing the
handset in the correct direction. Then press Search.
Improving signal strength
If the received signal strength falls during a call, as shown
by the signal strength indicator, ensure that the antenna
is pointed towards the satellite and there are no obstacles
between you and the sky. The eCompass is displayed to
indicate the direction in which the antenna should be
maintained. When you return the handset to your ear,
ensure that you keep it pointed in the direction of the
satellite.
Obtaining a GPS fix
Before you can make a call, your phone needs a GPS
fix so it can be located by the satellite. This happens
automatically but if a new GPS fix is needed, the
GPS fix icon will be displayed. Keep the phone in
the open with a clear view of the sky until the icon
disappears. Your phone is now ready to make and
receive calls. See Obtaining a GPS fix manually on
page 38 for more information.

Making an emergency call
Wireless phones, including IsatPhone 2, operate using
radio signals, wireless networks, landline networks,
and user-programmed functions. Because of this,
connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed.
You should never rely solely on any wireless device for
essential communications like medical emergencies.
Emergency calling requirements for satellite phones vary
from country to country. Always check your emergency
contact numbers and ensure they are stored on your
phone before travelling. Please contact your service
provider for specific country information.
To make an emergency call in the US, dial 911 or 112 and
in Australia dial 000 or 112. Your call will be put through
to a call centre which will connect you to the appropriate
emergency service. Alternatively, select Menu > Contacts
> Emergency numbers. An emergency call is free of
charge. Prepay users do not need a positive balance to
make an emergency call. Dialling 911 or 112 overides all
security locks and bars on your phone.
For details on emergency calling in the rest of the world,
please contact your service provider.

Incoming call alerting
To make or receive calls and messages with any satellite
handset, you must maintain a clear line of sight between
the antenna of your handset and the satellite. The
Incoming call alerting feature notifies you of calls and
text messages when satellite signal reception is limited
and/or when the antenna is not deployed. Access to the
service is still affected by the location of the handset, and
is not available when out of the line of sight of the satellite.
See Connecting to the satellite on page 13 for normal
operation.
Using Incoming call alerting
Before using Incoming call alerting, each time you switch
on the handset it must be successfully registered to the
network. To do this, deploy the antenna in a location that
has a clear line of sight to the satellite. When the handset
is registered, the screen displays Ready for service and
the two status LEDs change to green. See Connecting to
the satellite on page 13. You can now stow the antenna
and place the handset in the holster provided or in
another convenient location. Unless Incoming call alerting
is disabled, the screen displays Ready for service,
Incoming call alerts only and the status LEDs change
to amber to indicate that the available signal strength is
sufficient to notify you of incoming calls or messages.
If the received signal strength is too low, the status LEDs
turn red and the screen displays the instruction Point
antenna towards satellite. Move to a location with a
clear line of sight to the satellite and the two status LEDs
will change to amber. The handset will continue to search
for the network until you reach a position where the signal
strength is sufficient to receive incoming call alerts.
Receiving an Incoming call alert
When you receive an incoming call alert, you must action
in order to obtain full connectivity to the network. This
means that you must deploy the antenna if it is stowed,
and move to a location with a clear line of sight to the
satellite. On receiving an incoming call alert, the status
LEDs flash amber and the alert tone sounds. See Sounds,
ringtones and profiles on page 45. The screen displays
Incoming call and Time remaining 15s. The time counts
down until you successfully connect to the network.
Throughout this period, the incoming call can be rejected
by pressing the red key.
Missed Incoming call alerts
If you reject an incoming call alert or do not successfully
connect to the network within 15 seconds, the alert is
terminated. The screen then informs you of a missed
alert . You must connect to the network to receive more
information about the missed call, voicemail or text. See
Returning a call on page 16. Missed calls are forwarded to
your voicemail if configured to do so. See Using voicemail
on page 21.
