Radio Waves
THIS MOBILE DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientic organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientic studies. These guidelines include a substantial safety
margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specic
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications
Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram
of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the mobile device
transmitting at its highest certied power level in all tested frequency bands.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device
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:2ACCJH094.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certied power level, the actual SAR level of the mobile
device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the mobile 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
of the mobile device. Before a mobile device model is available for sale to the public, compliance with
national regulations and standards must be shown. The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone
when tested is 1.01 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.18 W/Kg for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various mobile devices and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the
device has been tested when positioned a minimum of 10 mm from the body without any metal parts in
the vicinity of the device or when properly used with an appropriate accessory and worn on the body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. Additional
information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)
Web site: http://www.phonefacts.net
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientic information does not
indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile devices. If individuals are concerned,
they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or
using “hands-free” devices to keep mobile devices away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).
Additional WHO information about electromagnetic elds and public health are available on the
following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
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 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.
4142
Page 23
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
• Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with theoperation of a licensed radio service (e.g. FM broadcast),
they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this
device does not cause harmful interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
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
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Your mobile device is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid
touching it or degrading it. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions
other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the guidelines
when used with headset or USB data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the mobile device at least 10 mm away from
the body.

Requirements for Hearing Aid Compatibility with Wireless Devices
When wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as 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, and wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference that they
generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings to assist hearing device users in finding wireless
devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all wireless devices have been rated.
Wireless devices that are rated will have the rating displayed on the box together with other relevant
approval markings.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated wireless
device successfully. Consulting with your hearing health professional and testing the wireless device
with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.

This smartphone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies that the smartphone uses. However, other wireless technologies may be used in this
smartphone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of your smartphone thoroughly and in different locations to determine if you hear any
interfering noise when using this smartphone with your hearing aid or cochlear implant. Consult your
wireless service provider about its return and exchange policies, and for information about hearing
aid compatibility.
Hearing aid compatibility rating for this smartphone: M4/T3
How the ratings work
M-Ratings: Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than wireless devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better or higher
of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Wireless devices 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 wireless devices. T4
is the better or higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The
more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from wireless
devices.
For more information about the actions that the FCC has taken with regard to hearing aid compatibility
with wireless devices and other steps that the FCC has taken to ensure that individuals with disabilities
have access to telecommunications services, visit www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.
