RF Exposure Information (SAR)

To reduce exposure to RF energy, use a hands-free accessory or other similar
option to keep this device away from your head and body. Carry this device at
least 10 mm away from your body to ensure exposure levels remain at or
below the as-tested levels. Choose the belt clips, holsters, or other similar
body-worn accessories which do not contain metallic components to support
operation in this manner. 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 Information (HAC)

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) C63.19-20011 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 telecoil 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 M4/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 retailer.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or
hearing health professional may help you find this rating. For more information
