Service
The phone, batteries and charger contain no user-serviceable parts. We recommend that
your phone is serviced or repaired by an TOSHIBA authorized service centre. Please
contact your service provider for more information.
◆
Efficient use
The phone has an internal antenna. For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption, please do not cover the internal antenna area with your hand. Covering the
internal antenna affects call quality, may cause the phone to operate at higher power
levels than needed and may shorten talk and standby times.

Radio frequency (RF) signals
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone contains a radio transmitter and receiver. Your phone is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission 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 standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted 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. 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 output.
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 U.S. government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed on position and locations (for
example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by FCC for each model. The
highest SAR value for this model phone (FCC ID: SP2-SG4-E01) as reported to the FCC
when tested for use at the ear is 0.657 W/kg, and when worn on the body, is 1.06 W/kg.
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the U.S. government
requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported
SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
