 23 FCC Regulations: This mobile phone 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. This mobile phone 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  radiated  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
 24 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. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
 25 RF Exposure Information   (SAR) This phone 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  United States, Industry Canada of Canada.    During  SAR  testing,  this  device  was  set  to transmit  at  its  highest  certified  power  level  in  all tested  frequency  bands,  and  placed  in  positions that  simulate  RF  exposure  in  usage  against  the head with no separation, and near the body with the  separation  of  10  mm.  Although  the  SAR  is determined  at  the  highest  certified  power  level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can  be  well  below  the  maximum  value.   This  is because  the  phone  is  designed  to  operate  at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required  to  reach  the  network.   In  general,  the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.  The  exposure  standard  for  wireless  devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.   The SAR limit set  by  the  FCC  is  1.6W/kg,  and  1.6W/kg  by Industry Canada.
 26 This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and Canada RSS 102, and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, and Canada RSS 102. This device has been tested, and meets the FCC, IC RF exposure guidelines when tested with the device directly contacted to the body.    The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated  as  in  compliance  with  the  FCC  RF exposure  guidelines.   SAR  information  on  this model phone is on file  with the FCC and  can be found  under  the  Display  Grant  section  of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on  FCC ID: Q78-Z992.  For  this  device,  the  highest  reported  SAR  value for  usage  against  the  head  is  1.25  W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.46 W/kg.  While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements.  SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this
 27 device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body.   RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains metal, was not tested and certified, and use such body-worn accessory should be avoided. Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones In  2003,  the  FCC  adopted  rules  to  make  digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing aids and  cochlear  implants.  Although analog  wireless phones  do  not  usually  cause  interference  with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital wireless phones  sometimes  do  because  of electromagnetic  energy  emitted  by  the  phone's antenna,  backlight,  or  other  components.  Your phone  is  compliant  with  FCC  HAC  regulations (ANSI  C63.19-  2011).  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
 28 rating  system  for  wireless  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 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.  This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless  technologies  used  in  this  phone  that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It  is  important to  try  the  different features  of  this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if  you  hear  any  interfering  noise.  Consult  your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.  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
 29 ratings.   T-Ratings:  Phones  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  phones.  T4  is the better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)      Your phone meets the M3/ T4 level rating.  Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device  manufacturer  or  hearing  health professional  may  help  you  find  this  rating.
