the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
• 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 device
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.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement.
• This device has also been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a minimum of 15mm from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Position the handset a minimum of 15mm from your body when the device is switched on.
• Choose the belt clips, holsters, or other similar body-worn accessories which do not contain
metallic components to support the minimum distance of body-worn operation. Cases with
metal parts may change the RF performance of the device, including its compliance with RF
exposure guidelines, in a manner that has not been tested or certified, and use such
accessories should be avoided.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones
• Your phone is compliant with the FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility requirements.
• The FCC has adopted HAC rules for digital wireless phones. These rules require certain
phone to be tested and rated under the American National Standard Institute (ANSI) C63.19-
2011 hearing aid compatibility standards.
• The ANSI standard for hearing aid compatibility contains two types of ratings.
• M-Ratings: Rating for less radio frequency interference to enable acoustic coupling with
hearing aids.
• T-Ratings: Rating for inductive coupling with hearing aids in tele-coil mode.
• Not all phones have been rated, a phone is considered hearing aid compatible under FCC
rules if it is rated M3 or M4 for acoustic coupling and T3 or T4 for inductive coupling. These
ratings are given on a scale from one to four, where four is the most compatible. Your phone
meets the M3/T3 level rating.
• However, hearing aid compatibility ratings don't guarantee that interference to your hearing
aids won't happen. Results will vary, depending on the level of immunity of your hearing
device and the degree of your 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
