114 4A. Important Safety Information
䢇 It’s best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable
performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs
replacing.
Storing
䢇 Don’t store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of
time. It’s best to follow these storage rules:
Less than one month:
-4° F to 140° F (-20° C to 60° C)
More than one month:
-4° F to 113° F (-20° C to 45° C)
Disposal of Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) Batteries
䢇 Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.
䢇 Never dispose of the battery by incineration.
䢇 Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be
burned.
䢇 For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest
Boost authorized service center.
Special Note:
Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas,
the disposal of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned
on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use
your phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This
power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards
described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and
the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s
1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF
signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from
universities, government health agencies and industries developed this
updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In 1993,
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated
standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published
by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the Boost-supplied or Boost-approved carrying
case, holster or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn
accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 0.866 inches (2.2 centimeters)
from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Boost-approved accessories
may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines. Other accessories used with this
device for body-worn operations must not contain any metallic components
