device type when using at the ear is 0.68 W/kg, and when
properly worn on the body is 0.54 W/kg, and when using the
Wi-Fi hotspot function is 1.01 W/Kg.
FCC statement
FCC ID: QISKIW-A1
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
--Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
--Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
--Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
--Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
15
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Caution:
Any changes or modifications to this device not
expressly approved by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for
mobile phones
In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless
telephones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear
implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually
cause interference with hearing aids or cochlear implants,
digital wireless phones sometimes do because of
electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone's antenna,
backlight, or other components.
Your phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI
C63.19).
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
16
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.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device's telecoil
("T Switch" or "Telephone Switch") than unrated phones. T4
is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all
hearing devices have telecoils in them.) Hearing devices may
also be measured.
Your phone meets the M4/T3 level rating. Hearing devices
may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you find this rating.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing
aids for some 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 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.
17
To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your
device is maintained, secondary transmitters such as
Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi components must be disabled during
a call.

Compatibility please go to
