substantial safety margin designed to assure the  
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.  
Additional information on SAR can be found on  
the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet  
Association (CTIA) web-site at  
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 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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
Optimize your phone’s performance  
Use the guidelines on page 8 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 to the FCC  
that it does not exceed the limit established by the  
government-adopted requirement for safe  
Air bags  
If your vehicle has 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.  
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.  
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  
PacemakersWarning 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 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.  
User Guide for the Cyclops phone  
 
iii  
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association  
and the wireless technology research community  
recommend that you follow these guidelines to  
minimize the potential for interference.

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.  
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.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are  
often, but not always, clearly marked.  
They include:  
If you have any reason to suspect that  
interference is taking place, turn off your phone  
immediately.  
fueling areas such as gas stations  
below deck on boats  
Hearing aids—Some digital wireless phones  
may interfere with hearing aids. In the event of  
such interference, you may want to consult  
Virgin Mobile or call the customer service line to  
discuss alternatives.  
transfer or storage facilities for fuel or  
chemicals  
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as  
propane or butane  
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.  
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  
Use with care  
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.  
Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid  
dropping, hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.  
Keep phone dry  
Potentially unsafe areas  
If the phone gets wet, turn the power off  
immediately and contact your dealer. Water  
damage may not be covered under warranty.

on a plane that is in the air. Turn your phone off or  
switch it to Airplane Mode before boarding aircraft.  
Resetting the phone  
If the screen seems frozen and the keypad does  
not respond to keypresses, reset the phone by  
completing the following steps:  
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.  
1. Remove the battery door.  
2. Remove and replace the battery.  
If the problem persists, return the phone to the  
dealer for service.

Accessories  
Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Features  
of this Phone  
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.  
This Virgin Mobile phone has been certified as  
receiving an M4 rating for hearing aid-compatibility  
performance. 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  
Radio Frequency (RF) energy  
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver.  
When it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy.  
Virgin Mobile’s network controls the power of the  
RF signal. This power level can range from 0.006  
to 0.6 watts.  
performance for a particular user.  
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  
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,  
following reports:  
ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards  
Institute, 1992)  
NCRP Report 86 (National Council on  
Radiation Protection and Measurements,  
1986)  
interfering with the desired audio transmission.  
ICNIRP (International Commission on  
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, 1996)  
ANSI Standard  
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. The  
higher the phone’s “M” rating, the more likely the  
phone is compatible with a hearing aid operating in  
the microphone setting.  
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.  
User Guide for the Cyclops phone  
 
v
Hearing aids also have ratings similar to wireless  
phones. 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 M4 rating of this phone.  
For example, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with  
this M4 phone, you will achieve a combined rating  
of seven.  
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.  
Please visit our website www.virginmobileusa.com  
if you have any additional questions about hearing  
aid-compatibility.
