US Information Concerning the Federal

CommunicationsCommission (“FCC”) Requirements for

Hearing Aid Compatibility with Wireless Devices

When wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as 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, and wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference

that they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings to assist hearing

device users in finding wireless devices that may be compatible with their

hearing devices. Not all wireless devices have been rated. Wireless devices

that are rated will have the rating displayed on the box together with other

relevant approval markings.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s

hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable

to interference, you may not be able to use a rated wireless device

successfully. Consulting with your hearing health professional and testing

the wireless device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it

for your personal needs.

This smartphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for

some of the wireless technologies that the smartphone uses. However,

other wireless technologies may be used in this smartphone that have not

been tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different

features of your smartphone thoroughly and in different locations to

determine if you hear any interfering noise when using this smartphone

with your hearing aid or cochlear implant. Consult your wireless service

provider about its return and exchange policies, and for information about

hearing aid compatibility.

Hearing aid compatibility rating for this smartphone: M4/T3

How the ratings work

M-Ratings: Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and

are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than wireless

devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better or higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings: Wireless devices 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 wireless devices. T4 is the better or

higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils

in them.)

Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type

of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health

professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The

more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience

interference noise from wireless devices.

to hearing aid compatibility with wireless devices and other steps that the

FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to

telecommunications services, visit www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.

THIS MODEL DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR

EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. For body worn operation, this phone has

been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the

TCT Mobile Limited. Accessories supplied or designated for this product.

Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF

exposure guidelines.

Your wireless mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed

and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio

frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of

the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines

and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The

guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and

international standards bodies:

 American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992 .

 National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).

Report 86. 1986.

 International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP) 1996.

 Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a

substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,

regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phone employs a unit of

measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit

set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg*.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device

with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF

exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the

FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https://fjallfoss.

fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm after searching on FCC ID:

2ACCJB079. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can

be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)

Web-site as http://http://www.ctia.org/.

* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone 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 usage.

Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the

interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are

advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of

personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to

come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with

RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 15 mm

must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including

the antenna. 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.

Only use 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.

Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

 Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their

pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.

 Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

 Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential

for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is

taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately.
