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.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with

any other antenna or transmitter.

The country code selection is for non-US models only and is not available to all US models. Per FCC

regulation, all WiFi products that are marketed in US must be ﬁxed to US-operated channels only.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This device has been tested and meets applicable limits for Radio Frequency (RF) exposure.

Speciﬁc Absorption Rate (SAR) refers to the rate at which the body absorbs RF energy. SAR limits

are 1.6 Watts per kilogram (over a volume containing a mass of 1 gram of tissue) in countries that

follow the United States FCC limit and 2.0 W/kg (averaged over 10 grams of tissue) in countries

that follow the Council of the European Union limit. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard

operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certiﬁed power level in all tested

frequency bands.

To reduce exposure to RF energy, use a hands-free accessory or other similar option to keep this

device away from your head and body. Carry this device at least 15 mm away from your body to

ensure exposure levels remain at or below the as-tested levels. Choose the belt clips, holsters,

or other similar body-worn accessories which do not contain metallic components to support

operation in this manner. Cases with metal parts may change the RF performance of the device,

including its compliance with RF exposure guidelines, in a manner that has not been tested or

certiﬁed, and use such accessories should be avoided.

ThehighestFCCSARvaluesforthedeviceareasfollows:

• 1.08W/Kg(Head)

• 0.55W/Kg(Body)

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels

evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is

on ﬁle with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid

aftersearchingonFCCID:MSQZ01GD.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) regulations for Mobile phones

In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing

aids and cochlear implants. Although analog wireless phones do not usually cause interference

with hearing aids or cochlear implants, digital wireless phones sometimes do because of

electromagnetic energy emitted by the phone’s antenna, backlight, or other components. Your

phone is compliant with FCC HAC regulations (ANSI C63.19- 2011). While some wireless phones

are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a

buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this

interference noise and phones also vary in the amount of interference they generate. The wireless

telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones to assist hearing device

users in ﬁnding phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have

been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box. 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 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.

M-Ratings:PhonesratedM3orM4meetFCCrequirementsandarelikelytogenerateless

interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two

ratings.

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.)

Your phone meets the M3/T3 level rating.

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.
