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 radiofrequency
(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 organization 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 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 handset model as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the
ear is 0,72 W/kg (TA-1338)/0,93 W/kg (TA-1346), and when worn on the body in a
holder or carry case, is 0,97 W/kg (TA-1338)/1,00 W/kg (TA-1346). Body-worn
Operation; This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the
handset kept 1,0 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 handset model with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR
information on this handset model 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-1338 and 2AJOTTA-1346. Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/general
/radiofrequency-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 minimise 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. For more information about FCC Hearing Aid
Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro. This device has an
electronic label for certification information. To access it, select
Settings > System > Certification.
