2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

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 will not occur in  a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 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.

SAR Information Statement

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (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. 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 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 to 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. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.136W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user  guide, is 1.196W/Kg(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). The maximum scaled SAR in hotspot mode is 1.196W/Kg. 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 RFexposure  guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2ADINS6304L Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)  can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. 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 sub-stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 10mm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,  and similar accessories used by this 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. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.

Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Statement

The S6304L (A23 Plus/ NUU A23 Plus) has been tested for hearing aid compatibility. This device has an M3 and T3 rating. When some wireless devices are used near some hearing devices such as hearing aids and implants, users may detect abuzzing or  humming noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise. Wireless devices may also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The ratings for compatibility of digital wireless devices with hearing aids are described in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard:
M-Rating: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference with hearing devices than phone that are not labeled. M4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings.
S6304L (A23 Plus/ NUU A23 Plus) is rated M3.
T-Rating: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely be more usable with hearing devices’ telecoil than unrated phones. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
S6304L (A23 Plus/ NUU A23 Plus) is rated T3.
The more immune the hearing aid device is, the less likely one is to experience interference noise from the wireless phone. Hearing aid devices may also be rated. Adding the rating of the hearing aid and the phone would determine probable usability:

1. Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers the best use.
2. Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you  may not be able to use this device successfully.Trying out this device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal needs.This device has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it utilizes.
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.
