FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for
wireless devices

The FCC has adopted rules to ensure reasonable access to
telecommunications services for persons with hearing disabilities.
As part of this effort, the industry uses a rating system for wireless
phones to help hearing device users find phones that may be
compatible with their hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants). This hearing-aid compat ibility (HAC) rating system is
described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
C63.19-2011 sta ndard and includes the following ratings:

M-Ratings:

devices that are not operating in telecoil mode.

or M4 meet FCC HAC requirements and are likely to generate less
radio frequency interference with hearing devices than phones
with lower ratings. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your

This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for
some of the wireless tec hnologies 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 exc hange

policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
The ratings are not guara ntees. Trying out the phone with your

hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs. Results will vary depending on a user’s hearing device and
hearing loss. For example, if some wireless phones are used near
some hearing devices, users may detect a buzzing, humming, or
whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others
to this interfere nce noise, and phones also vary in the am ount of
interference they generate. If your hearing device happens to be
vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated
phone successfully.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) testing

Your device has been designed to comply with applicable limits for
RF exposure. These limits use a unit of measurement called
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which refers to the rate at which
the human body absorbs RF energy. For more information on
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada
(IC) SAR and radio frequency expos ure, please see our Radio
Frequency Safety web page at:

HTC Corp. submitted SAR test results demonstrating compliance
with the FCC’s SAR limit for wireless devices as part of the FCC’s
equipment certification process for this device. These results can
be accessed via the FCC’s equipment authorization database

device should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn
accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply
with RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.

RF radiation exposure statement

 This equipment must not be co-located or operated in

conjunction with any ot her antenna or transmitter.

 Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized

antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,
damage the phone, or result in violation of reg ulations. Do not
use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a burn may result.
