APPENDIX A: OTA Updates

OTA stands for “Over The Air”, and refers to the way in which firmware updates are sent to your phone; i.e. via your data connection, with minimal intervention required on the part of the user and without any complex updating procedures to go through.

Your phone will periodically check whether updates to the operating system are available. Updates generally incorporate improvements to system performance or additional features for your device. If an update is available, a pop-up window will appear to inform you of this fact and will request permission to install the update. It is recommended that you use a Wi-Fi connection to download the update package.

The system will guide you through the installation process, to ensure that it is completed as quickly and conveniently as possible.

You can also check for updates manually, by going to Settings > About phone > Update.

A message will appear to tell you that the system is searching for available updates.

If an update is found, the installation process is the same as described above.

· Prolonged exposure to high levels of sound pressure may cause permanent damage to hearing. It is recommended that you do not wear headphones while cycling, running or walking through areas with heavy traffic or excessive noise.

· Use of the device while driving: Some car manufacturers prohibit the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless they are equipped with a hands-free kit and external antenna. Ask the vendor of your vehicle whether your mobile phone or hands-free Bluetooth kit will interfere with your car’s electrical systems. Always devote your full attention to the road while driving and respect the local regulations and laws on the use of wireless devices while at the wheel.

· Location/GPS-based functions: Location-based functions are offered “as is” and

“for all corresponding effects”. Mundo Reader, S.L. does not claim or in any way guarantee the accuracy of any location-based information.t

· When the device is using location-based information, it may suffer from interruptions or failures and its dependence on network availability will increase.

Note that functionality may be reduced or obstructed in certain areas, such as inside buildings or in areas close to buildings.

· Use the GPS function with caution, to make sure you are not distracted while driving.

· Emergency calls: The ability to make a phonecall cannot be guaranteed under all conditions. Never place your trust solely in mobile phones to make an emergency call. With certain mobile networks, certain network services, certain functions activated and in certain areas, it may not be possible to make a phonecall..

· Antenna: Use of the device with an antenna other than that supplied by Mundo

Reader, S.L. may damage the phone, impair its performance and generate SAR levels (see Appendix C overleaf) that exceed the limits established by law. Do not cover the antenna with your hand, as this may affect call quality and energy consumption and may shorten the phone’s talk time and standby availability.

APPENDIX D: Information on Exposure to Radio Waves and the SAR

(Specific Absorption Rate)

The design of this mobile device complies with the current regulations governing exposure to radio waves. These regulations are based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to ensure the safety of everyone, regardless of age or state of health.

The guidelines on exposure to radio waves use a unit of measurement known as the SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). SAR tests are carried out using standardised methods, with the mobile device transmitting at the highest certified level of power on all the frequency bands it uses.

The maximum SAR levels recommended by the ICNIRP (International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection) is 2 W/kg, measured on 10 g of tissue.

The highest SAR levels recorded for this phone are as follows:

During auditory use

When carried next to the body

Aquaris E5FHD

0,284 W/Kg (10 g)

0,545 W/Kg (10 g)

Aquaris E5HD8

0,283 W/Kg (10 g)

0,519 W/Kg (10 g)

Aquaris E5HD16

0,283 W/Kg (10 g)

0,519 W/Kg (10 g)

This device complies with the guidelines on exposure to radio frequency both when it is used in the normal position next to the ear and when it is positioned at least 1.5 cm from the body.

In order to send data files or messages, this device requires an adequate network connection. On certain occasions, the transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until an adequate connection becomes available. Until the transmission has been completed, make sure you follow the instructions on separation distance mentioned above.
