If you ﬁnd duplicate entries in Contacts, you can join them into a single entry.
Changes made to information from one source do not automatically change
the information on the other sources. For example, if you have information
about a contact from a Google Account and an Exchange account and both

Account are synced to that account on the web, but the information from
the Exchange account will remain unchanged.

Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 0.39
inches (1cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.39 inches (1cm) 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 may not be used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inch (1cm)
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.
FCC Part 15.19 statement
This device and its accessories comply with part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device and its accessories may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device and its accessories must accept any interference received, including
interference that cause undesired operation.
FCC Part 15.21 statement
Changes or Modifications that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Part 15.105 statement
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 i nterference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference or television reception, which can be d etermined 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.
HAC statement
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.
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 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 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 to the left, 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 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 secondary transmitters like a BT (Bluetooth) or WLAN off for HAC.
