RegulatoryInformation43 Regulatory Information The following topics provide important regulatory information. Sp ec if ic Ab sorp t ion Rat es (SARyf f or Wireless Phones The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed into the head of a user of a wireless handset. The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety. All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the public. The highest reported SAR values of the ALCATEL ONETOUCH FLING are: Head: 1.075 W/kg (1gyf Body-worn: 1.473 W/kg (1gyf For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5cm from the user’s body. FCC Radio Frequenc y Emission This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: RAD506 More information on the phone’s SAR can be found from the following FCC website: http://fcc.gov/oet/ea/ Using Your Phone wit h a Hearing Aid Devic e A number of Boost Mobile phones have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implantsyf, users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.
RegulatoryInformation44 Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability rating categories for both. Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box. Your ALCATEL ONETOUCH FLING has an M4/T4 rating. These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing device is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device. 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 for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.yf T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”yf than unrated phones. (T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.yf Note: New Technologies. 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 newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested for use with hearing aids. Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing aid. Add the rating of your hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability: n Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers excellent use. n Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use. n Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable. Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating of six for “excellent use.” This is synonymous for T ratings. It is further suggested you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled M3/T3 or M4/T4yf while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone, promptly return it to the store. More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found at: fcc.gov, fda.gov, and accesswireless.org. This equipment complies with the hearing aid compatibility technical requirements of Section 20.19 of the rules. HAC Ratings: M4 T4 -2011.
