Health and safety information
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the device's
moving parts and prevent proper operation.
• Do not put the phone in or on heating devices,
such as a microwave oven, a stove or a radiator.
The phone may explode when overheated.
• When the phone or battery gets wet, the label
indicating water damage inside the phone changes
color. In this case, phone repairs are no longer
guaranteed by the manufacturer's warranty, even
if the warranty for your phone has not expired.
• If your phone has a flash or light, do not use it too
close to the eyes of people or animals. This may
cause damage to their eyes.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas or modified
accessories may damage the phone and violate
regulations governing radio devices.
• If the phone, battery, charger or any accessory is
not working properly, take it to your nearest
qualified service facility. The personnel there will
assist you, and if necessary, arrange for service.
Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile
Phones
• When some mobile phones are used near some
hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may
detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearig devices are more immune than others
to this interference noise, and phones also vary i n
the amount of interference they generate.
• The wireless telephone industry has developed
rating for some of their mobile phones, to assist
hearing device users in finding 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 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.

requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing device that are not labeled.
M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
• T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirments 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 telecoil 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 mobile phones.
