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 of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching
on FCC ID BEJCU515.
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website 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
substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
Hearing Aid Compatibility
(HAC) with Mobile Phones
When some mobile 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
ratings for some of their mobile 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 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.
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
