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).
55 Phone operation NORMAL  POSITION:  Hold  the  phone  as  you  would  any  other  telephone  with  the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

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. 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
61 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. 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.

Humphrey Bldg. 200 Independence Ave., SW Washington, DC 20201 Voice: 1-800-35-NIOSH (1-800-232-4636)     Internet: http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/noise/default.html 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.
63 The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for  different  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 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
64 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  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
65 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? 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
66 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. 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
67 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.  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
68 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. 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
69 more distance between your 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”  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.

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 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
71 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 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
72 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 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.
73 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 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
74 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 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 0.59 inches (1.5 cm) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.59 inches (1.5 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 0.59 inches (1.5 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  1.29 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user’s manual, is  1.19 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. Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once
75 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 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
76 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 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
77 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.
