However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use
AUTHORITY 131 with hearing aids. It is important to try the di erent features of this phone thoroughly and in di erent locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer. On July 10, 2003 , the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 09 modi ed 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  nd 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 rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated M4.T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing aid’s telecoil than phones that are not rated.T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated T4.Please power o  the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid devices with your Authority. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you  nd this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference noise.The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for better use. A sum of 8 is considered for best use. In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context is de ned as a signal quality that is acceptable for normal operation.This methodology applies equally for T ratings. The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules.

AUTHORITY 132 Gallaudet University, RERC:https:// allfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfmSAR InformationHEAD BODYCDMA850/1700/1900 1.3 W/kg 1.2 W/kgTHIS MODEL DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the TCT Mobile Limited. Accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.Your wireless mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It 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 the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:-  American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992 .-  National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986.-  International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996.-   Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phone employs a unit of measurement known as the Speci c Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg*.The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on  le with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https:// allfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm after searching on FCC ID: RAD278 Additional information on Speci c Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web-site as http://www.phonefacts.net.* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in usage. Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
AUTHORITY 133 Body-worn OperationSAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 2.0 cm and wireless router operation is based on a separation distance of 1.0 cm between the unit and the body of the user. Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and which provide at least 2.0 cm separation between the device and the user’s body.FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement-   This Transmitter has been demonstrated co-location compliance requirements with Bluetooth and WLAN. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.-   This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety informationPacemakersThe Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.Persons with pacemakers:-   Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.-   Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.-   Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately.Hearing aidsSome digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.RoHS complianceThis product is in compliance with Directive 002/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 January 2003, on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment (RoHS) and its amendments.
