FCC Hearing-Aid CoWireless Devices On July 10, 2003, the U.S(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01- 309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid CompatibiAct of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is toensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities. While some wireless phones aused near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noSome 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 industrydeveloped 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 thatrated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on thuser’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be ableuse 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: Phoare likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are not rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. PM23220 is rated M3. T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T
10 Safety and regulatory guide 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 PM23220 is rated T4. Please power off the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid rated. devices with your PM23220. Hearing devices may also beYour hearing device manufacturer orhearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interferencenoise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added fined is arks ed in ed for use with hearing aids for ne together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for better use. A sum of 8is 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 deas a signal quality that is acceptable for normal operation. This methodology applies equally for T ratings. The M mark intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T mare recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referencSection 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard. This phone has been tested and ratsome of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determiif 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.

A minimum separation distance must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna: y 1 cm to comply with the RF exposure requirements in the U.S. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna. FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement  This Transmitter has been demonstrated co-location compliance requirements with built-in 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. WEEE notice The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which entered into force as European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in the treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life. The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the prevention of WEEE, and in addition, to promote the reuse, recycling and other
12 Safety and regulatory guide forms of recovery of such wastes so as to reduce disposal. The WEEE logo (shown at the left) on the product or on its box indicates that this product must not be disposed of or dumped with your other household waste.
