Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves as set forth by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Refer to the following.

FCC RF Exposure Information

Your handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluations 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 handsets 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. 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 handset as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 0.98 W/kg, and when worn on the body in a holder or carry case, is 1.20 W/kg.

Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the handset kept xx cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain a 1.0 cm separation distance between the user’s body and the handset. The use of belt clips, holsters, and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model handset with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model handset is on file with the FCC and can be found under the FCC ID Search section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/ after searching on FCC ID 2AJOTTA-1257. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/general/radio-frequency- safety-0.

To send data or messages, a good connection to the network is needed. Sending may be delayed until such a connection is available. Follow the separation distance instructions until the sending is finished.
During general use, the SAR values are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output, the lower the SAR value. Device models may have different versions and more than one value.

Component and design changes may occur over time and some changes could affect SAR values.
For more info, go to www.sar-tick.com. Note that mobile devices may be transmitting even if you are not making a voice call.
Your mobile device is also designed to meet the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines. FCC ratings for your device and more information on SAR can be found at http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that current scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions when using mobile devices. If you are interested in reducing your exposure, they recommend you limit your usage or use a hands-free kit to keep the device away from your head and body. For more information and explanations and discussions on RF exposure, go to the WHO website
at www.who.int/peh-emf/en.

HAC notice:
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 phones to be tested and rated under the American National Standard Institute (ANSI) C63.19-2011 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 M3/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.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW(S), THE MANUFACTURER SHALL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE, EITHER EXPRESSLY OR IMPLIEDLY, FOR ANY

1. DAMAGES OR LOSSES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM OR RELATING TO LOSS OF, DAMAGE TO, OR CORRUPTION OF, CONTENT OR DATA OR THE RECREATION OR TRANSFER THEREOF EVEN IF SUCH LOSS, DAMAGE, OR CORRUPTION WAS A RESULT OF A DEFECT IN YOUR PRODUCT; AND/OR
2. LOSS OF PROFIT, PRODUCTIVITY, BUSINESS, CONTRACTS, REVENUES OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, INCREASED COSTS OR EXPENSES, OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE.
   To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Manufacturer’s liability shall be limited to the purchase value of your Product.

Choice of law

The laws of the State or Province where you live (or if a business, or the location of a principal place of business) govern the interpretation of this Warranty, any claim that the Manufacturer has breached it, and all other claims (including consumer protection, unfair competition, implied warranty, and tort claims), regardless of conflict of law principles, except that the US Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration.

Binding arbitration and class action waiver if you live in (or if a business, a principal place of business is located in) the United States
This section applies to any dispute EXCEPT DISPUTES RELATING TO THE ENFORCEMENT OR VALIDITY OF YOUR, YOUR LICENSOR’S, MANUFACTURER’S, OR MANUFACTURER’S LICENSOR’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. The term “dispute” means any dispute, action or another controversy between you and the Manufacturer concerning the Product, Product Accessory (including its price) or this Warranty, whether in contract, warranty, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance or any other legal or equitable basis. “Dispute” will be given the broadest possible meaning allowable under law.

1. Notice of Dispute. In the event of a dispute, you or the manufacturer must give the other a Notice of Dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any Notice of Dispute by U.S. Mail to HMD America, Inc., 1200 Brickell Avenue, Miami, FL 33131. The manufacturer will send any Notice of Dispute to you by U.S. Mail to your address if we have it, or otherwise to your e-mail address. You and Manufacturer will attempt to resolve any dispute through informal negotiation within 60 days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After 60 days, you or the Manufacturer may commence arbitration.
2. Small Claims Court. You may also litigate any Dispute in small claims court in your county of residence (or if a business, the location of your principal place of business), if the dispute meets all requirements to be heard in the small claims court. You may litigate in small claims court whether or not you negotiated informally first.
3. Binding Arbitration. If you and Manufacturer do not resolve any Dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by individual binding arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Class arbitrations are not permitted. You are giving up the right to litigate disputes in court before a judge or jury (or participate as a party or class member). Instead, all disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.
4. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor the Manufacturer will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action, private attorney general action, or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or other proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.
5. Arbitration Procedure. Any arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. If you are an individual and use the Product for personal or household use, or if the value of the dispute is $75,000 USD or less whether or not you are an individual or how you use the Product, the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply. For more information, see www.adr.org or call 1-800-778-7879. To commence an arbitration, send a request to HMD America, Inc., 1200 Brickell Avenue, Miami, FL 33131. You agree to commence arbitration only in your county of residence (or if a business, the county where your principal place of business is located). Manufacturer agrees to commence arbitration only in your county of residence (or if a business, the county where your principal place of business is located). You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the AAA rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 USD or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only to you individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.
6. Arbitration Fees and Payments.

Disputes Involving $75,000 USD or Less. The manufacturer will promptly reimburse your filing fees and pay the AAA’s and arbitrator’s fees and expenses. If you reject Manufacturer’s last written settlement offer made before the arbitrator was appointed (“Manufacturer’s last written offer”), your dispute goes all the way to an arbitrator’s decision (called an “award”), and the arbitrator awards you more than Manufacturer’s last written offer, Manufacturer will:

• pay the greater of the award or $1,000 USD;
•  pay your reasonable attorney’s fees, if any; and
•  reimburse any out-of-pocket expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your claim in arbitration. The arbitrator will determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses unless you and the Manufacturer agree on them.
• Disputes Involving More Than $75,000 USD. The AAA rules will govern the payment of filing fees and the AAA’s and arbitrator’s fees and expenses.
• Disputes Involving Any Amount. In any arbitration you commence, Manufacturer will seek its AAA or arbitrator’s fees and expenses, or your filing fees it reimbursed, only if the arbitrator finds the arbitration frivolous or brought for an improper purpose. In any arbitration Manufacturer commences, the Manufacturer will pay all filing, AAA, and arbitrator’s fees and expenses. The manufacturer will not seek its attorney’s fees or expenses from you in any arbitration. Fees and expenses are not counted in determining how much a dispute involves.
• Conflict with AAA Rules. This warranty governs to the extent it conflicts with AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules or Consumer Arbitration Rules.
• Claims or Disputes Must Be Filed Within One Year. To the extent permitted by law, any claim or dispute to which Section 6 applies must be filed within one year in small claims court, an arbitration proceeding, or in court, if Section 6 permits the dispute to be filed in court instead of arbitration. The one-year period begins when the claim or Notice of Dispute first could be filed. If such a claim or dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.
• Severability. If the class action waiver in Section 6.4 is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, then Section 6 will not apply to those parts. Instead, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration. If any other provision of Section 6 is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that provision will be severed with the remainder of this Section 6 remaining in full force and effect.
