About Bluetooth
For your convenience, your new Jitterbug is equipped to utilize Bluetooth
wireless headsets, hands-free speakers, and other Bluetooth compatible
devices.
There are many bene ts to using Bluetooth devices. Along with improved ease-
of-use and safety by eliminating wires, Bluetooth also offers you plenty of
alternative advantages, such as having the ability to talk hands-free while your
Jitterbug is in your pocket or purse.
Visit www.great.com/jitterbug/accessories or call 1-800-733-6632 to learn
more about the bluetooth headset that’s right for you.

Please power off the Bluetooth® function while using hearing aid devices with your 4043S.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you nd 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 better use.
A sum of 8 is 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 de ned as a signal quality that
is acceptable for normal operation.
This methodology applies equally for T ratings. 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

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.

FCC Caution: Any changes or modi cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment.
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.
Important Note
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the
speci c operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, please follow operation instruction as documented in this manual.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter, except the transmitters
built-in with the device.
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- 09 modi ed the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aid. 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 aid 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 nd 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 rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated M4.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with
a hearing aid’s telecoil than phones that are not rated.

ARBITRATION THAT IS CONSISTENT WITH LAW AND THIS AGREEMENT. AN ARBITRATOR MAY ISSUE INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY
RELIEF BUT ONLY APPLYING TO YOU AND US AND NOT TO ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR THIRD PARTY. AS A LIMITED EXCEPTION TO
THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, YOU AND WE AGREE THAT:
(A) YOU MAY MAKE CLAIMS TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY FOR HEARING BY SUCH COURT; AND
(B) IF YOU FAIL TO TIMELY PAY AMOUNTS DUE, WE MAY ASSIGN YOUR ACCOUNT FOR COLLECTION, AND THE COLLECTION
AGENCY MAY PURSUE IN COURT CLAIMS LIMITED STRICTLY TO THE COLLECTION OF THE PAST DUE DEBT AND ANY INTEREST
OR COST OF COLLECTION AGREEMENT. AS PERMITTED BY LAW, OR WHETHER CLASS ACTION IN COURT, WAIVER SMALL
CLAIMS COURT, OR ARBITRATION, YOU AND WE MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY
AND NOT AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. IF A COURT OR
ARBITRATOR DETERMINES IN A CLAIM BETWEEN YOU AND US THAT YOUR WAIVER OF ANY ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS OR
REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS IS UNENFORCEABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WILL NOT APPLY, AND
YOU AND WE AGREE THAT SUCH CLAIMS WILL BE RESOLVED BY A COURT OF APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION, OTHER THAN A SMALL
