10 Synchronizing Information
Some applications on your mobile phone give you access to the same personal
information that you can add, view, and edit on your computer. If you add, change, or
delete your information in any of these applications on the web, the updated
information also appears on your mobile phone.
This is made possible through over-the-air data synchronization. The process occurs
in the background and does not interfere with use of your mobile phone. When your
phone is synchronizing, a data synchronization icon will be shown in the notification
bar.
10.1 Managing Your Accounts
You can synchronize contacts, email, and other information on your mobile phone
with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of accounts, depending on the
applications installed on your mobile phone.
For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so your
personal email, contacts, and calendar are always available. You could then add a
work account, so your work-related emails and work contacts are handy. If you like,
you may add multiple Google accounts or other accounts.
10.1.1 Adding an Account
When you add an account, Contacts compares contacts from the newly
synchronized account with contacts from your existing mobile phone accounts and
attempts to merge duplicates into a single entry in Contacts. While it is presented as
a single contact entry, the contact data itself is not merged.
1. Touch
>
Settings Accounts & sync. The screen displays your current
>
synchronization settings and a list of your current accounts.
In some cases, you may need to obtain account details from an IT support. For
example, you may need to know the account’s domain or server address.
2. Touch Add account
.
3. Touch the kind of account to add.
4. Follow the onscreen steps to enter the required and optional information about the
account. Most accounts require a username and password, but the details depend
50
on the kind of account and the configuration of the service to which you are
connecting.
5. Configure the account. Depending on the kind of account, you may be asked to
configure what kind of data you want to sync to the mobile phone, to name the
account, and for other details. When you are finished, the account is added to the
list in the Accounts & sync settings screen.
10.1.2 Removing an Account
You can remove an account, deleting itandall informationassociatedwith itfromyour
mobile phone, including email, contacts, settings, and so on. You cannot, however,
remove some accounts, such as the first account you signed into on the mobile
phone. Ifyouattempt to removecertain accounts, all personal information associated

For some accounts, synchronizing is two-directional; changes that you make to the
information on your mobile phone are made to the copy of that information on the
web. Some accounts support only one-way synchronize; the information on your
mobile phone is read-only.

synchronizing events, and so on, until you touch theRefreshmenu item or send
an email.
•
Select or clear the Auto-sync check box to control whether changes you make to
information on the phone or on the web are automatically synchronized with each

Certification Information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by
international guidelines, thedevice isdesigned notto exceed the limits forexposure to
radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
70
(ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to ensure safety for all users,
regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR value
is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the
actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be well below the value. This
is because the device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the
network.
The SAR limit adopted by USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC and IC for this
device type when tested for use at the ear is 1.34 W/kg, and when properly worn on
the body is 1.02 W/kg, and when using Wi-Fi hotspot function is 1.32 W/Kg.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with
hearing aids and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually
cause interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital wireless phones
sometimes do because of electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna,
backlight, or other components.
Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19).
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and
phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones,
to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing
devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on
their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees. Results will
vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Tryingoutthephonewith yourhearingdeviceisthe bestwayto evaluate
it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to
generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled.
M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more
usable with ahearingdevice’stelecoil (“TSwitch” or “TelephoneSwitch”)thanunrated
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.
Your phone meets the M4/T3 level rating. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this
rating.
