TIA safety information The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones: Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When ON, it receives and sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards ‘bodies, as follows: ANSI C95.1 (1992) * NCRP Report 86 (1986) ICNIRP (1996) * American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection. Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards). Antenna Care Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
43 could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations. Phone Operation NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder. Tips on Efficient Operation For your phone to operate most efficiently, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when operating the phone. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed, thus reducing battery life. Driving Always observe the laws and regulations regarding wireless phone usages while driving. Where cell phone use is permitted while driving, you MUST observe the following: 1. Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility; 2. Use hands-free operation, if available; 3. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law requires that you do so. Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (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:
44 1. Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON; 2. Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket; 3. Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference; 4. Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is occurring. Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals but some equipment or devices might not be. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you please consult your service provider, or call customer service regarding alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use other personal medical devices, consult the device manufacturer to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy, or your health care provider may be able to advice about any harmful device interactions. Vehicles RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Be certain to contact the manufacturer or representative regarding this as well as manufacturer of any additional vehicle equipment. Health Care Facilities Please refer to pages 10 and 11 of this guide for information regarding medical interference with your
45 device. Aircraft Please refer to pages 6 and 7 of this guide for information regarding operating electronic devices on aircrafts. Posted Facilities Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require. For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag DO NOT place objects, including installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result since air bags inflate with great force. Safety information Please read and observe the following information for safe and proper use of your phone and to prevent damage.

Battery Information: Care and Proper Disposal 1. Please dispose of your battery properly or take it to your local wireless carrier for recycling. 2. The battery doesn’t need to be empty before recharging, and replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. Note: The battery can be recharged several hundred times and it does not need to be empty in order to recharge. 3. Use only Coolpad-approved chargers specific to your phone model as they are designed to maximize battery life. 4. Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery. 5. Keep the battery’s metal contacts clean. 6. Recharge the battery after long periods of non-use to maximize battery life. Note: Battery life will vary due to usage patterns and
47 environmental conditions. 7. Use of extended backlighting, Browser, and data connectivity kits affect battery life as well as talk/standby times. 8. The self-protection function of the battery cuts the power of the phone when its operation is in an abnormal state. In this case, remove the battery from the phone, reinstall it, and turn the phone on. Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards 1. Do not put your phone in a place that is subject to excessive dust, and always keep the minimum required distance between the power cord and heat sources. 2. Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning your phone, and clean the power plug pin when necessary. 3. When using the power plug, ensure that it’s firmly connected. 4. Placing the phone in a pocket or bag without covering the phone receptacle (power plug pin), metallic articles (e.g.: coins, paperclips, pens) may short-circuit the phone. Always cover the receptacle when not in use. 5. Metallic articles that come into contact with the phone may short-circuit the + and – battery terminals (metal strips) which may result in battery damage, or even an explosion. General Notice 1. Using a damaged battery or placing a battery in your mouth may cause serious injury. 2. Placing items containing magnetic strip components (e.g.: credit cards, phone cards, bank
48 books, subway tickets) near your phone may damage the data stored in the magnetic strips. 3. Talking on the phone for long periods of time may reduce call quality due to heat generation. 4. Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged as it may cause a slight contact burn. Please communicate with a Coolpad Authorized Service Center to replace the damaged antenna. 5. Do not immerse your phone in water. If this happens, immediately turn the phone OFF and remove the battery. If the phone does not work, take it to a Coolpad Authorized Service Center. 6. Do not paint your phone. 7. Phone data, including contact information, ringtones, text messages, voice messages, pictures or videos, etc., may be inadvertently deleted due to careless use, phone repair, or software upgrades. Please back up your important phone numbers and all other vital data. Note: Neither the manufacturer nor any person or entity associated therewith is liable for any damages whatsoever due to loss of any or all data stored on any of your devices. 8. When using the phone in public places, set the ringtone to vibration so you don't disturb others. 9. Do not turn your phone on or off while the device is in close proximity to your ear. 10. Use accessories, such as earphones and headsets with caution. Ensure that cables are tucked away safely and do not touch the antenna. Caution: Avoid potential hearing loss.
49 Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, ear buds and Bluetooth®, or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in some studies with tinnitus (ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound, and distorted hearing. The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones. Hence, individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other hearing problems can vary. Please follow these important guidelines for hearing loss prevention: 1. Set the phone’s volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume for which you can hear clearly. 2. When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to. 3. Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, consider using noise-cancelling headphones to block out background noise. 4. As the volume increases, less time is required before your hearing could be affected, so consider limiting your listening time.
50 5. Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises (e.g.: live concerts) that might cause temporary hearing loss which, in turn, might cause unsafe volume levels to sound like normal levels. 6. Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your health care provider.

51 FDA consumer update The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones: 1. What is the FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones? Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit Radio Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, the FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists. Although the existing scientific data does not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following: 1. Support current and future research regarding possible biological effects of the type of RF emitted by wireless phones; 2. Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and 3. Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with complete and accurate information regarding possible effects of wireless phone use on human health and safety. The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different
52 aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group: 1. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health 2. Environmental Protection Agency 3. Occupational Safety and Health Administration 4. National Telecommunications and Information Administration The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities as well. The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that act to limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones. The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed in this document. 2. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard? Current scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy while operating microwave ranges (which also emit very low levels of RF
53 when they are in standby mode). While high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects results in no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not uncovered any biological effects. Although some studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur, such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, and/or determining the reasons for inconsistent results. 3. What are the results of the research done already? The research conducted thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so it is largely unknown what the results of such studies mean for human health and safety. Three large epidemiology studies have been published since
54 December 2000. These studies investigated possible associations between the use of wireless phones and primary brain cancer (glioma, meningioma, acoustic neuroma, other brain tumors, and salivary gland tumors), leukemia, or other types of cancer. None of the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can provide absolute findings about long-term exposures since the average period of phone use in these studies was approximately three years. 4. What kinds of phones are the subjects of this update? Here the term “wireless phone” refers to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance between the phone and the user’s head. These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of the FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically reduced due to a person's RF exposure rapidly decreasing with increasing distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, thus producing RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits. 5. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
55 The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators around the world to ensure that high-priority animal studies are conducted to address concerns about the effects of exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International Electro Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has implemented new research programs around the world. The project has also resulted in a series of public information documents on EMF issues. The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to conduct research on wireless phone safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts with independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the context of the latest research developments around the world. 6. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk? A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless phones would provide some of the vital data. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years.
56 However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer-promoting effect, if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human populations, but ten or more years of follow-up research may be needed to provide answers about certain health effects, such as cancer. This is due to the interval between exposure time to a cancer-causing agent and the rate for which tumors develop - if they do. This could take several years into the future. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used. 7. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming from wireless phones? The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from wireless phones and other wireless handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human head.
57 Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency of measurements made at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or mill-watts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine whether a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines. 8. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless phone? All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these guidelines in consultation with the FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless phones is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability to remove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is set well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC. The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html) gives directions for locating the FCC identification number on your phone, so you can find your phone’s RF exposure level in the online listing.
58 9. What about children using wireless phones? The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the measures described above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. 10. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy from my wireless phone? If there is a risk from these products- and at this point we do not know that there is - it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone on a daily basis, consider placing more distance between your
59 body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data does not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use. 11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment? Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. The FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a “compatible” phone and a “compatible”
60 hearing aid simultaneously. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000. The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem. 12. Where can I find additional information? For additional information, please refer to the following resources: FDA web page on wireless phones (http://www.fda.gov), under “C” in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Current Research Results. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety Program (http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html) International Commission on Nonionizing Radiation Protection (http://www.icnirp.de) World Health Organization (WHO) International EMF Project (http://www.who.int/emf) Health Protection Agency (http://www.hpa.org.uk/) Nine driver safety tips Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold. When operating a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, when permitted by local law, practice good common sense and remember the following tips: 1. When available and permitted by local law, use a hands-free device. A number of hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you choose an installed mounted
61 device for your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you. 2. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial function without taking your attention off the road. 3. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary; suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay attention to the road. 4. Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can reach it without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for you. 5. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may be at a stop sign, red light, or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip - dial only a few numbers, and then check the road and your
62 mirrors then continue. 6. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are reading an address book or business card, or writing a “to-do” list while driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. Use common sense. Do not get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles. 7. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations -- with your phone at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial 911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard, or medical emergency. Remember, it’s a free call on your wireless phone! 8. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix; they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary, suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your attention from the road. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when necessary. Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call for emergency services. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a
63 hand. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number. The above tips are meant as general guidelines. Before deciding to use your mobile device while operating a vehicle, it is recommended that you consult your applicable jurisdiction’s local laws or other regulations regarding such use. Such laws or other regulations may prohibit or otherwise restrict the manner in which a driver may use his or her phone while operating a vehicle. 9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for you. Consumer information on SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) This Model Phone Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These FCC exposure limits are
64 derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy. The exposure limit for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although 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. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, generally, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power 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 government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed
65 in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) must be maintained between the user's body and the back of the phone. Third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components should not be used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) separation distance between the user's body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.97 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user’s manual, is 1.33 W/kg. While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC ID. To find information that pertains to a particular model phone, this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone.
66 Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for your phone, follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for that phone. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/ In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones 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 measurements. FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices On July 10, 2003, 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
67 hearing device users to 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 this. 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. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find 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 best use. In the example illustrated above, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the M3
68 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 defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation. 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. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard. When you're talking on a cell phone, it's recommended that you turn the BT (Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.
