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 any questions about return or
exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone retailer.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Mobile Phone
Your mobile device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it because they
could hurt themselves and others, damage the mobile device, or make calls that
increase your mobile device bill. Keep the mobile device and all its parts and
accessories out of the reach of small children.
Teletypewriter (TTY) Devices
You can use an optional teletypewriter (TTY) device with your phone to send and
receive calls. You must plug the TTY device
into the phone’s headset connector and set the phone to operate in one of three TTY
modes.
• NOTE: A TTY is a communication device used by people who are hard of hearing
or have a speech impairment. TTY does not work from mobile phone to mobile
phone. Use a TSB-121 compliant cable (provided by the TTY manufacturer) to
connect the TTY device to your phone. Your phone has a 3.5mm jack. Set the
phone to Medium volume level for proper operation. If you experience a high
number of incorrect characters, adjust the volume as needed to minimize the error
rate. For optimal performance, your phone should be at least 12 inches (30
centimeters) from the TTY device. Placing the phone too close to the TTY device
may cause high error rates.

energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low
levels of RF when in the idle mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating
