Regulatory Information
The following topics provide important regulatory information.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) forWireless Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amountof RF energy absorbed into the head of a
user of awireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of anextensive testing, measuring and
calculationprocess. It does not represent how much RF thephone emits. All phone models are
tested attheir highest value in strict laboratory settings.But when in operation, the SAR of a
phone canbe substantially less than the level reported tothe FCC. This is because of a variety of
factorsincluding its proximity to a base station antenna,phone design and other factors. What is
importantto remember is that each phone meets strictfederal guidelines. Variations in SARs do
notrepresent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, whichincorporates a substantial margin of safety.
Asstated above, variations in SAR values betweendifferent model phones do not mean
variationsin safety. SAR values at or below the federalstandard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe
for useby the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the ALCATELONETOUCH ELEVATE are:
Head: 1.06W/kg (1g)
Body-worn: 1.39 W/kg (1g)
For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a
minimum of 1.0 cm from the user’s body.
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio FrequencyEmission Guidelines.
FCC ID number:2ACCJB001
More information on the phone’s SAR can befound from the following FCC website:
http://fcc.gov/oet/ea/
Using Your Phone With a HearingAid Device
A number of Boost phones have been tested forhearing aid device compatibility. When
somewireless phones are used with certain hearingdevices (including hearing aids and
Index 117
cochlearimplants), users may detect a noise which caninterfere with the effectiveness of
thehearing device.
Some hearing devices are more immune thanothers to this interference noise, and phones
alsovary in the amount of interference noise they maygenerate. ANSI standard C63.19 was
developed toprovide a standardized means of measuring bothwireless phone and hearing
devices to determineusability rating categories for both.
Ratings have been developed for mobile phonesto assist hearing device users find phones
thatmay be compatible with their hearing device. Notall phones have been rated for compatibility
withhearing devices. Phones that have been ratedhave a label located on the box. Your
ALCATELONETOUCH ELEVATE has an M3/T4 rating.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results willvary depending on the user’s hearing deviceand
individual type and degree of hearing loss.If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable
tointerference noise; even a phone with a higherrating may still cause unacceptable noise levels
inthe hearing device. Trying out the phone with yourhearing device is the best way to evaluate it
foryour personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCCrequirements for hearing aid compatibility andare
likely to generate less interference to hearingdevices than unrated phones. (M4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings.)
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCCrequirements and are likely to be more usablewith
a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or“Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. (T4 isthe
better/higher of the two ratings. Note that notall hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Note: New Technologies, Including Wi-Fi. This phone has been tested and rated foruse with
hearing aids for some of the wirelesstechnologies that it uses. However, there may benewer
wireless technologies (including Wi-Fi)used in this phone that have not been tested foruse with
hearing aids.
Hearing aid devices may also be measured forimmunity to interference noise from
wirelessphones and should have ratings similar to phones.Ask your hearing healthcare
professional forthe rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating ofyour hearing aid and your phone
to determineprobable usability:
Any combined rating equal to or greater than sixoffers excellent use.
Any combined rating equal to five is considerednormal use.
Any combined rating equal to four isconsidered usable.
Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3phone, you will have a combined rating of six
for“excellent use.” This is synonymous for T ratings.
It is further suggested you experiment withmultiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or
M4/T4) while in the store to find the onethat works best with your hearing aid device.Should you
Index 118
experience interference or find thequality of service unsatisfactory after purchasingyour phone,
promptly return it to the store. Moreinformation about hearing aid compatibility may befound at:
fcc.gov, fda.gov, and accesswireless.org.
This equipment complies with the hearing aid compatibility technical requirements of Section
20.19 of the rules. HAC Ratings: M3/T4 -2011.
Warning Statements
THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES. OPERATIONIS SUBJECT
TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE
HARMFULINTERFERENCE, AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUSTACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE
RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION.
The user manual for an intentional or unintentional radiator shall caution the user that changes
or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: THE GRANTEE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS
NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE. SUCH
MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.
Note: 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.
