SAR Information
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based
on the safety standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic evaluation of scientific studies.
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless phones employs a unit of measurement known
as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The
highest SAR values for this model phone were Head: 0.84 W/kg, and Body: 0.967
W/kg.

Digit Dialing
If you regularly have trouble with Nuance not recognizing the numbers you speak,
try adapting digit dialing to your voice. Adapting can improve the accuracy of digit
recognition, especially for people with strong regional accents.
Note: After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone is customized to your voice, and your voice only.
Others will not be able to use it unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.
Adaptation involves recording several sequences of four digits each. The recording
process takes about a minute.

Tips for Adapting Digit Dialing
•
•
•
•
Use Adapt Digits in a quiet place.
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.
Speak clearly, and say each digit distinctly.
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of digits, or if there is an unexpected
noise that spoils the recording, re-record that sequence.
•
Only adapt digits if you are regularly having problems with digit dialing. Once you adapt,
digit dialing will not work as well for other people using your phone. (You can always reset
digit adaptation to its original state.)
Sound
