96 Bluetooth 9.1 Bluetooth Modes Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology. Devices with Bluetooth capabilities can exchange information over a distance of about eight meters without requiring a physical connection. Bluetooth on your device operates in three different modes: • On. Bluetooth is turned on. Your device can detect other Bluetooth-enabled devices, but not vice versa. • Visible. Bluetooth is turned on, and all other Bluetooth-enabled devices can detect your device. • Off. Bluetooth is turned off. In this mode, you can neither send nor receive information using Bluetooth. Notes • B y default, Bluetooth is turned off. If you turn it on, then turn off your device, Bluetooth also turns off. When you turn on your device again, Bluetooth automatically turns on. • T urn off Bluetooth when not in use to conserve battery power, or in places where using a wireless device is prohibited, such as on board an aircraft and in hospitals. To turn Bluetooth on and make your device visible On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Menu > Bluetooth Devices > Mode tab. Select the Turn on Bluetooth and Make this device visible to other devices check boxes.
9.3 Connecting a Bluetooth Hands-free or Stereo Headset For hands-free phone conversations, you can use a Bluetooth hands-free headset such as a car kit with your device. Your device also supports ADP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) which allows you to use a Bluetooth stereo headset for hands-free phone conversations and for listening to stereo music. To connect a Bluetooth hands-free or stereo headset Make sure that both your device and the Bluetooth headset are turned on and within close range, and that the headset is visible. Refer to the manufacturer’s documentation to find out how to set the headset in visible mode. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Menu > Bluetooth Devices > Devices tab > Add new device. Tap the name of the Bluetooth headset, then tap Next. The device will automatically pair the device with the Bluetooth headset. Windows Mobile will automatically try one of the preconfigured passcodes (0000, 1111, 8888, 134) to pair the Bluetooth headset with the device. If this fails, you have to enter the passcode delivered with your headset manually. Note If the Bluetooth stereo headset becomes disconnected, turn the headset on and repeat step 1 to above. Tap and hold the name of the Bluetooth stereo headset and tap Set as Wireless Stereo.

10 Navigating on the Road 10.1 Guidelines and Preparation for Using GPS If you install a GPS software on your device, please follow these guidelines before and when using your device as a GPS device. • Do not operate the GPS system while driving. The plotted GPS route is only for driving reference. It should not interfere with actual driving behavior. • When using the device inside a vehicle, use the car holder to mount the device securely in place. Avoid placing the device in the areas shown in the following diagram: 1 Do not place where it will block the driver’s vision. 2 Do not place where air bags could deploy. 3 Do not place anywhere in the vehicle without securing the device in the holder. • Please use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any damages resulting from negligent operation of the system. • The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent objects. Signal reception may be affected by obstructions such as high-rise buildings, tunnels, bridges, forests, weather (rainy or cloudy days), etc. If the vehicle’s visor contains metal, it will be difficult for the GPS signal to pass through. • Wireless communication products (such as mobile phones or radar-detecting devices) may interfere with the satellite signal, resulting in unstable signal reception. • The Global Positioning System (GPS) is built and operated by the US Defense Department. The Department is responsible for the accuracy and maintenance of the system. Any changes that the Department makes may affect the accuracy and function of the GPS system. • Do not leave your device in a vehicle or expose the device to direct sunlight to avoid overheating the battery, which could pose damage to the device or risk to the vehicle.
On the screen, initially, you will see the Valid time of the downloaded data. As time passes, the remaining days and hours of validity will be shown. To speed up GPS positioning, download the latest ephemeris data when the validity of the data expires. Download options To configure download times, tap Menu > Options and choose from the available options: • Remind me when data expires. Enables your device to display a reminder message when the validity of the ephemeris data has expired. When you see the reminder message, tap Menu to dismiss the reminder or to set the snooze time so that you will be reminded again. Tap OK to open the QuickGPS program and download the latest data. • Autodownload when data expires. Allows ephemeris data to be automatically updated onto your device when the data has expired. • Autodownload when connected to PC via ActiveSync. Allows ephemeris data to be automatically downloaded via ActiveSync to your device when your device is connected to your computer. Your computer must be connected to the Internet in order to download data. Note The ephemeris data is stored on HTC Web servers. QuickGPS is preconfigured to connect to these servers.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices On July 10, 003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. 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. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to 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. DIAM500 is rated Please power off the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid devices with your DIAM500. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may ...
