Handset Use & Electronic Medical Equipment
This section is based on "Guidelines on the Use of Radio Communications
Equipment such as Cellular Telephones and Safeguards for Electronic Medical
Equipment" (Electromagnetic Compatibility Conference, April 1997) and
"Report of Investigation of the Effects of Radio Waves on Medical Equipment, etc."
(Association of Radio Industries and Businesses, March 2001).
Warning
Persons with implanted pacemaker/debrillator
should keep handset more than 22 cm away.
Radio waves may interfere with implanted pacemakers or
defibrillators.
If you intend to use electronic medical equipment
other than implanted pacemaker/debrillator
outside medical facilities, consult the vendor on
radio wave effects.
Radio waves may interfere with electronic medical equipment.
Compulsory
Compulsory
Observe these rules inside medical facilities to
avoid effects of radio waves on electronic medical
equipment:
・
Do not enter an operating room or an Intensive or Coronary
Care Unit while carrying a handset.
・

xv
Handset Care
・
If handset is left with no battery or an exhausted one, data may be altered/
lost. SoftBank Mobile is not liable for any resulting damage.
・
Use handset between 5°C - 35°C. Avoid extreme temperatures/direct sunlight.
・
Exposing lens to direct sunlight may damage color filter affecting image color.
・
Do not drop or subject handset to shocks.
・
Clean handset with a dry, soft cloth. Using alcohol, thinner, etc. may damage it.
・
Never disassemble or modify handset.
・
Avoid scratching Display.
・
When using headphones, moderate the volume to avoid sound bleed.
・
Heavy objects or excessive pressure should be avoided. This may cause
malfunction or injury.
-Do not sit down with handset in pocket.
-Do not place heavy objects on handset in a bag.
・
Insert only specified devices into Headphone Port. Malfunction or damage
may result.
・
Always turn power off before removing battery. If battery is removed while
saving data or sending mail, data may be lost, changed or destroyed.
Keypad Surface Swelling
・
Keypad surface might swell up due to drastic atmospheric changes (at high
altitudes, aboard high-flying aircraft, etc.) when Battery Cover is closed. This
is normal. Keypad will return to its original shape.
・
Open Port Cover to release air that may be trapped inside handset.
・
Carefully close Battery Cover to avoid trapping excess air inside handset.
・
When using a swollen Keypad, take care to avoid damaging protrusions.
Original shape will return.
Water Resistance
840SC Water Resistance
・
840SC complies with IPX5 (former JIS protection level 5)1and
IPX7 (JIS protection level 7)2water protection standards, with
Port Covers closed and Battery Cover locked rmly.
1IPX5 compliant means that this handset continues to function as a phone
after being subjected to a water jet (approximately 12.5 liters/min.)
discharged from a nozzle (inner diameter: 6.3 mm), from all directions
(approximately 3 m from handset) for at least three minutes.
2IPX7 compliant means that this handset continues to function as a phone
and no water seeps inside after being gently lowered into a tank filled with
still tap water (at room temperature) to the depth of 1 m, and immersed at
the bottom for approximately 30 minutes.
・
Warranty does not cover malfunctions resulting from misuse.
Usage Notes
・
Lock Battery Cover and close Port Covers firmly. Foreign matter (hair, sand,
fibers, etc.) trapped between contact surfaces may cause seals to fail and
expose internal parts to water.
・
Leaving Battery/Port Covers open may expose handset to moisture, causing
malfunction/electric shock. Power handset off, and remove battery.
・
If handset gets wet, moisture might get between Keypad and hinges. Wipe
off handset with a clean, dry cloth. Do not leave handset wet.
・
To prevent water from getting inside a handset exposed to rain or touched
with wet hands, do not open Battery Cover or Port Cover. After handset has
completely dried out, slowly open Battery Cover or Port Cover. If liquid does
get inside, do not use handset; power off, remove battery, and take it to a
SoftBank Shop.
・
To prevent water from getting inside handset when areas around Port
Cover or Battery Cover are wet, wait until handset has completely dried,
before slowly opening and closing covers.
・
Handset is resistant to fresh/tap water at room temperature (5°C - 35°C) only.

xvi
Precautions
・
Do not expose handset to liquids (soaps, detergents, soapy water, seawater,
pool water, hot spring water, boiling water, chemicals, or perspiration, etc.)
other than fresh/tap water. Do not expose handset to sand or mud.
・
If handset is exposed to liquid other than fresh/tap water, immediately rinse
off handset with water. Position handset approximately 10 cm from tap or
shower head and wash with a low pressure flow (less than six liters per
minute, at room temperature (5°C - 35°C)). Hand wash (do not use brushes
or sponges) with Battery Cover in place and locked, and Port Cover closed.
・
Do not expose handset to bathtubs or swimming pools. Do not use handset
(open or close handset, or use Keypad) in water.
・
Handset is not resistant to water at high pressure. Do not expose handset
to tap or shower water flowing faster than six liters per minute, drop it into
water, or submerge.
・
Do not expose handset to extreme humidity for long periods; avoid prolonged
use in bath/shower rooms.
・
Use handset within 5°C - 35°C (up to 40°C for temporary use in bath/shower
rooms, etc.) and 35% - 90% humidity.
・
Handset is not heat-resistant. Do not use in saunas. Avoid hot air from dryers, etc.
・
Avoid extreme temperatures (e.g., near stoves, inside refrigerators, etc.).
・
Volume may be low when Microphone/Earpiece/Speaker is wet; dry handset
before use. After drying out, the volume will return to normal.
・
Avoid placing handset directly on sand. Sand may penetrate Earpiece, Speaker,
etc., resulting in low volume.
・
Do not move handset directly from a cold place to a warm, humid place;
condensation may occur. Should this happen, let handset dry naturally, at
room temperature.
・
Handset does not float.
・
Keep handset out of heavy rain.
・
Do not let liquid-exposed handset remain wet; exposure to cold may freeze
liquid causing malfunctions.
Maintaining Waterproof Performance
・
Do not subject handset to strong shocks or impacts; do not poke Microphone,
Earpiece, Speaker, etc. with a cotton swab or sharp object;
・
Port Cover and gasket play the important role of maintaining waterproofness.
Do not remove or damage them. In addition, do not allow foreign particles to
adhere to them.
・
Do not insert sharp objects into Port Cover gaps; may damage gasket and
affect water resistance.
・
Do not leave Port Cover bent back for prolonged periods of time to plug
in Earphone Microphone or Charger. It might deform Port Cover affecting
waterproofing.
・
