These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough 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 FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea after searching on the
FCC ID: OVF-K33BIC01.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications and Internet
Association (CTIA) web-site at www.ctia.org.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit
for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands.
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.
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. This is because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels so as
to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
Caution
The user is cautioned that changes or
modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the warranty
and user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Optimize your phone’s performance
Use the guidelines in this guide to learn how to
optimize the performance and life of your phone
and battery.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified by 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 worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model.
Air Bags
If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or
portable phone equipment or other objects over the
air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
equipment is not properly installed, you and your
passengers risk serious injury.
Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon availability of accessories
and FCC requirements. While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement for safe exposure.
Medical devices
Pacemakers—Warning to pacemaker wearers:
Wireless phones, when in the ‘on’ position, have
been shown to interfere with pacemakers. The
phone should be kept at least six (6) inches away
from the pacemaker to reduce risk.

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
and the wireless technology research community
recommend that you follow these guidelines to
minimize the potential for interference.
Blasting areas—Turn off your phone where blasting
is in progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any
regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive atmospheres—Turn off your
phone when you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, clearly marked.
•
Always keep the phone at least six inches
(15 centimeters) away from your pacemaker
when the phone is turned on.
•
•
•
Do not carry your phone near your heart.
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, turn off your
phone immediately.
They include:
•
•
•
fueling areas such as gas stations
below deck on boats
transfer or storage facilities for fuel
or chemicals
Hearing aids—Some digital wireless phones
may interfere with hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your
service provider or call the customer service line
to discuss alternatives.
•
•
•
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
any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine
Other medical devices—If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the manufacturer of the
device to determine if it is adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Your physician may be
able to help you obtain this information.
Use with care
Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid
dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.
In health care facilities—Turn your phone off in health
care facilities when instructed. Hospitals and
health care facilities may be using equipment that
is sensitive to external RF energy.
Avoid magnetic environments
Keep the phone away from magnets which can
cause improper functioning of the phone.
Potentially unsafe areas
Posted facilities—Turn your phone off in any facility
when posted notices require you to do so.
Keep your phone dry
Aircraft—FCC regulations prohibit using your
phone on a plane that is in the air. Turn your
phone off or switch it to Airplane Mode before
boarding aircraft.
Keep the phone dry. Damage can result if the
phone gets wet. Water damage is not covered
under warranty.
Resetting the phone
Vehicles—RF signals may affect improperly
installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer of the device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy.
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does
not respond to keypresses, reset the phone by
completing the following steps:
1. Remove the battery cover.
2. Remove and replace the battery.

If the problem persists, return the phone to the
dealer for service.
The rating for this phone is identified on the outside
of this phone’s original packaging. While there is
no guarantee, digital wireless phones that receive
a minimum of an M3 rating should provide
acceptable performance with most hearing aids.
Hearing loss and hearing aids are highly
individualized, however, so optimal performance
cannot be guaranteed. Other factors, such as type
of hearing aid device or degree of hearing loss,
also can affect a phone’s performance for a
particular user.
Accessories
Use only Kyocera-approved accessories with
Kyocera phones. Use of any unauthorized
accessories may be dangerous and will invalidate
the phone warranty if said accessories cause
damage or a defect to the phone.
Radio Frequency (RF) energy
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy.
Your service provider’s network controls the power
of the RF signal. This power level can range from
0.006 to 0.6 watts.
Hearing Aids and Wireless Phones
A hearing aid uses a microphone to collect and
convert sound waves to electrical signals. The
hearing aid then amplifies and converts the
electrical signals back to audible sounds for the
hearing aid user to hear. Radio Frequency (RF)
emissions generated by digital wireless phones
often interfere with the operation of a hearing aid’s
microphone, distorting the amplified audible sound.
In addition, hearing aid microphones tend to collect
ambient noise and amplify these sounds,
In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless
phones. These guidelines are consistent with the
safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies in the
following reports:
interfering with the desired audio transmission.
•
ANSI C95.1 (American National
Standards Institute, 1992)
ANSI Standard
•
NCRP Report 86 (National Council on
To diminish interference between wireless phones
and hearing aids, the FCC requires wireless
carriers to offer phones that meet the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19
standard for reduced RF emissions. Wireless
phones that comply with the FCC’s hearing aid
compatibility (HAC) regulations must receive a
minimum rating of “M3” for RF emissions under the
ANSI C63.19 standard. The “M” rating refers to the
phone’s RF emissions level for use with hearing
aids operating in the microphone setting.
Radiation Protection and
Measurements, 1986)
ICNIRP (International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, 1996)
•
Your phone complies with the standards set by
these reports and the FCC guidelines.
E911 mandates
Where service is available, this handset complies
with the Phase I and Phase II E911 Mandates
issued by the FCC.
The higher the phone’s “M” rating, the more likely
the phone is compatible with a hearing aid
operating in the microphone setting. Hearing aids
also have ratings similar to wireless phones.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) Features
This Virgin Mobile phone has received a HAC
performance rating (designated by the letter M
followed by a number).
User Guide

v
Most newer hearing aid models receive at least
an M2 rating.
To determine the level of compatibility between
your hearing aid and this Virgin Mobile HAC
certified phone, combine the M rating of your
hearing aid and the M rating of this phone. For
example, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M4
phone, you will achieve a combined rating of 7.
•
•
•
Any combined rating equal to or greater than
6 provides excellent performance.
Any combined rating equal to 5 offers
good performance.
Any combined rating equal to 4 offers
acceptable performance.
T-Ratings—Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to be more usable with
a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or
“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is
the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not
all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for
immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing
device manufacturer or hearing health professional
may help you choose the proper rating for your
mobile phone. The more immune your hearing aid
is, the less likely you are to experience interference
noise from mobile phones.
