THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured to not exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. 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 scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

Page 3

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone 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 phone 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.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified by the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.

Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon availability of accessories and FCC requirements. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section the FCC ID: OVF-K5301.

Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecomm unications and Internet Association (CTIA) web-site at

www.ctia.org

www.fcc.gov/oet/ea

after searching on

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

Bluetooth® Certification

Caution

The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the warranty and user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Radio Frequency (RF) energy

Your telephone is a radio tran smitter and re ceiver. When it is on, it receives and sends out RF energy. Your service provider’s network controls the power of the RF signal. This power level can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watts.

In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones. These guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies in the following reports:

• ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards Institute, 1992)

• NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, 1986)

• ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, 1996)

Your phone complies with the standards set by these reports and the FCC guidelines.

E911 mandates

Where service is available, this phone complies with the Phase I and Phase II E911 Mandates issued by the FCC.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) Features

This Virgin Mobile USA phone has received a HAC performance rating (designated by the letter M followed by a number). The rating for this phone is identified on the outside of this phone’s original packaging. While there is no guarantee, digital wireless phones that receive a minimum of an M3 rating should provide acceptable performance with most hearing aids. Hearing loss and hearing aids are highly individualized, however, so optimal performance cannot be guaranteed. Other factors, such as type of hearing aid device or degree of hearing loss, also can affect a phone’s performance for a particular user.

Hearing Aids and Wireless Phones

A hearing aid uses a microphone to collect and convert sound waves to electrical signals. The hearing aid then amplifies and converts the electrical signals back to audible sounds for the hearing aid user to hear. Radio Frequency (RF) emissions

generated by digital wireless phones often interfere with the operation of a hearing aid’s microphone, distorting the amplified audible sound. In addition, hearing aid microphones tend to collect ambient noise and amplify these sounds, interfering with the desired audio transmission.

ANSI Standard

To diminish interference between wireless phones and hearing aids, the FCC requires wireless carriers to offer phones that meet the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard for reduced RF emissions. Wireless phones that comply with the FCC’s hearing aidcompatibility (HAC) regulations must receive a minimum rating of “M3” for RF emissions under the ANSI C63.19 standard. The “M” rating refers to the phone’s RF emissions level for use with hearing aids operating in the microphone setting.

The higher the phone’s “M” rating, the more likely the phone is compatible with a hearing aid operating in the microphone setting. Hearing aids also have ratings similar to wireless phones. Most newer hearing aid models receive at least an M2 rating.

To determ ine the level o f compatibility between your hea ring aid and this Virgin Mobile USA HAC certified phone, combine the M rating of your hearing aid and the M rating of this phone. For example, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M4 phone, you will achieve a combined rating of 7.

• Any combined rating equal to or greater than 6 provides excellent performance.

• Any combined rating equal to 5 offers good performance.

• Any combined rating equal to 4 offers acceptable performance.

T-Ratings—Phones rated T3 or T 4 m eet FC C requ ireme nts 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.)

User Guide 5

Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you choose the proper rating for your mobile phone. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from mobile phones.
