certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of
measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general
population/uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE
C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the
measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone 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: SRQ-Z6750M
.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against
the head is
1.421 W/kg
, and for usage near the body is
1.496
W/kg
.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a
separation distance of 0.6 inches (15 mm) between the unit and
the human body. Carry this device at least 0.6 inches (15 mm)
14
away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or
lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation,
choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain metallic
components, to maintain a separation of 0.6 inches (15 mm)
between this device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory that
contains metal was not tested and certified, and use of such
body-worn accessory should be avoided.
FCC Regulations
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, 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:
15
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.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located
or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
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
16
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. These ratings are not
guaranteed. 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.
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.
T-Ratings:
Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
