TIA safety information
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones:
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When ON, it receives and
sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards „bodies, as follows:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
35
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection. Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the
ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna.Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when operating the phone.
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed, thus reducing battery life.
Driving
Always observe the laws and regulations regarding wireless phone usageswhile driving. Where cell phone use is
permitted while driving, you MUST observe the following:
1. Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility;
2. Use hands-free operation, if available;
3. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law requires that you
do so.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker.These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
1. Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned
ON;
2. Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
3. Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
36
4. Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is occurring.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals but some equipment or devices might not be.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you please consult
your service provider, or call customer service regarding alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use other personal medical devices, consult the device manufacturer to determine if it is adequately shielded
from external RF energy, or your health care provider may be able to advice about any harmful device interactions.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Be certain
to contact the manufacturer or representative regarding this as well as manufacturer of any additional vehicle
equipment.

6. Do not paint your phone.
7. Phone data, including contact information, ringtones, text messages, voice messages, pictures or videos,
etc., may be inadvertently deleted due to careless use, phone repair, or software upgrades. Please backup
your important phone numbers and all other vital data. Note: Neither the manufacturer nor any person or
entity associated therewith is liable for any damages whatsoever due to loss of any or all data stored on any
of your devices.
8. When using the phone in public places, set the ringtone to vibration so you don't disturb others.
9. Do not turn your phone on or off while the device is in close proximity to your ear.
10. Use accessories, such as earphones and headsets with caution. Ensure that cables are tucked away safely
and do not touch the antenna.
Caution:
Avoid potential hearing loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of preventable hearing loss.
Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular
telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent hearing loss. This includes the use of
headphones (including headsets, ear buds and Bluetooth®, or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud
sound has also been associated in some studies with tinnitus (ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound, and
distorted hearing. The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the
sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones. Hence, individual susceptibility to noise-induced
hearing loss and other hearing problems can vary. Please follow these important guidelines for hearing loss
prevention:
1. Set the phone’s volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume for which you can hear clearly.
2. When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the
person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.
3. Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your portable device in a
noisy environment, consider using noise-cancelling headphones to block out background noise.
4. As the volume increases, less time is required before your hearing could be affected, so consider limiting
your listening time.
39
5. Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises (e.g.: live concerts) that might cause
temporary hearing loss which, in turn, might cause unsafe volume levels to sound like normal levels.
6. Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled
speech or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio device,
discontinue use and consult your health care provider.

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration‟s (FDA) Center for Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update on
Mobile Phones:
1. What is the FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority
to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit Radio Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the
user. In such a case, the FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health
hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data does not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the wireless phone
industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
1. Support current and future research regarding possible biological effects of the type of RF emitted by
40
wireless phones;
2. Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for
device function; and
3. Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with complete and accurate information regarding possible
effects of wireless phone use on human health and safety.
The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different
aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this
working group:
1. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
2. Environmental Protection Agency
3. Occupational Safety and Health Administration
4. National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities as well. The FDA shares
regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones
that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that act to limit RF exposure. The FCC
relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base stations
operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these
base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations
are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed in this document.
2. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
Current scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones.
There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of Radio
Frequency (RF) energy while operating microwave ranges (which also emit very low levels of RF when they are in
standby mode). While high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF
that does not produce heating effects results in no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not uncovered any biological effects. Although some studies have suggested that some biological
effects may occur, such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, and/or determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
3. What are the results of the research done already?
The research conducted thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in
their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures
characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories.
41
A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer
in laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that
had been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop
cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These
conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so it is largely unknown what
the results of such studies mean for human health and safety. Three large epidemiology studies have been
published since December 2000. These studies investigated possible associations between the use of wireless
phones and primary brain cancer (glioma, meningioma, acoustic neuroma, other brain tumors, and salivary gland
tumors), leukemia, or other types of cancer. None of the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health
effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can provide absolute findings about
long-term exposuressince the average period of phone use in these studies was approximately three years.
4. What kinds of phones are the subjects of this update?
Here the term “wireless phone” refers to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called “cell”,
“mobile”, or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency
(RF) energy because of the short distance between the phone and the user‟s head. These RF exposures are
limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of the FDA and other federal health and
safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically
reduced due to a person's RF exposure rapidly decreasing with increasing distance from the source.
The so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically
operate at far lower power levels, thus producing RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.
5. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators around the world to
ensure that high-priority animal studies are conducted to address concerns about the effects of exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International Electro Magnetic Fields
(EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that has implemented new research programs around the world. The project has also
resulted in a series of public information documents on EMF issues. The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to
conduct research on wireless phone safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts
in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts with
independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of wireless phone
users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the context of the latest
42
research developments around the world.
6. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health
risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless phones would
provide some of the vital data. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However,
very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer-promoting effect, if one exists.
Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human populations, but ten or more years of
follow-up research may be needed to provide answers about certain health effects, such as cancer.
This is due to the interval between exposure time to a cancer-causing agent and the rate for which tumors develop
- if they do. This could take several years into the future. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is
hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors
affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.
7. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming from wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for measuring the
Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from wireless phones and other wireless handsets with the participation
and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for Determining the
Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices:
Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is
deposited in the heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human
head. Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency of measurements made
at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue,
either by the whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or mill-watts/g) of matter. This
measurement is used to determine whether a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.
8. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless
phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines that
limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these guidelines in consultation with the FDA
and the other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless phones is set at a
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety
standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body‟s ability to remove
heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is set well below levels known to have effects.
Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC.
43
The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html) gives directions for locating the FCC identification number
on your phone, so you can find your phone‟s RF exposure level in the online listing.
9. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If
you want to take steps to lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the measures described above would
apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing
the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a
recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain
tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary;
it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.
10. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy from my wireless
phone?
If there is a risk from these products- and at this point we do not know that there is - it is probably very small. But if
you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure
to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the
amount of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended conversations
by wireless phone on a daily basis, consider placing more distance between your body and the source of the RF,
since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the
wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific
data does not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from
these products, you can use measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless
phone use.
11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the
FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by
the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the FDA,
medical device manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. The FDA
has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary standard
sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and
44
performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses
a “compatible” phone and a “compatible” hearing aid simultaneously. This standard was approved by the IEEE in
2000. The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other medical devices.
Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to
resolve the problem.

Nine Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold. When
operating a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car, when
permitted by local law, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:
1. When available and permitted by local law, use a hands-free device. A number of hands-free wireless phone
accessories are readily available today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for your wireless
phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you.
2. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your
instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic
redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial function
without taking your attention off the road.
3. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let the person you are speaking
with know you are driving; if necessary; suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.
Rain, sleet, snow, and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to
pay attention to the road.
4. Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can reach it without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail
answer it for you.
5. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into
traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may
45
be at a stop sign, red light, or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip -
dial only a few numbers, and then check the road and your mirrors then continue.
6. Donot take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are reading an address book or business
card, or writing a “to-do” list while driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. Use common
sense. Do not get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying
attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
7. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to
protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations -- with your phone at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard, or
medical emergency. Remember, it‟s a free call on your wireless phone!
8. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional
conversations and driving do not mix; they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind the
wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary, suspend
conversations which have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when necessary. Certain
situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call for
emergency services. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a broken-down
vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears
injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency wireless
number. The above tips are meant as general guidelines. Before deciding to use your mobile device while
operating a vehicle, it is recommended that you consult your applicable jurisdiction‟s local laws or other
regulations regarding such use. Such laws or other regulations may prohibit or otherwise restrict the manner
in which a driver may use his or her phone while operating a vehicle.
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a perfect
opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or
other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.
Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This Model Phone Meets the Government‟s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your wireless phone is a
radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
46
radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.
These FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from
industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological
effects of RF energy. The exposure limit for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body
expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a safety limit of
1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. Because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, generally, the closer you are
to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government
adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations
with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) between the user‟s body and the back of the phone. To
comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) 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 should not be used.
Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) 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.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.06W/kg and when worn on the body,
as described in this user‟s manual, is1.28W/kg. While there may be differences between SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC ID.
To find information that pertains to a particular model phone, this site uses the phone FCC ID number which is
usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone. Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack
47
to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for your phone, follow the instructions on the website and it
should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for that phone.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/
In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones 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 measurements.
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 this.
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.
48
In the example illustrated above, 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 BT (Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.
