FCC requirements.) While there may be
differences between 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 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 BEJGW370.
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org
* 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 better/higher of
the two ratings.
