Safety Guidelines

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 BEJCU400.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates
(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.
