FCC ComplianceThis 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 un-desired operation. CAUTION! Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: 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 installa-tion. This equipment can generate, use and radiate radio fre-quency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with

26

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio com-munications. 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:• 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.

Radio Frequency (RF) EnergyThis model phone meets the government’s requirements for ex-posure to radio waves.This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Govern-ment:The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *Tests for SAR

27

are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is deter-mined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at mul-tiple 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 highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.12 W/kg, when worn on the body as described in this user guide is 1.45 W/kg (body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements), and during si-multaneous transmission (for example, making a phone call and using Wi-Fi at the same time) is 1.58 W/kg.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of vari-ous phones and at various positions, they all meet the govern-ment requirement.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 http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after

28

searching on FCC ID: Q78-ZTEN9120.For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is turned on.

HACHearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Mo-bile PhonesIn 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless tele-phones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Al-though 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).While some wireless phones are being used near some hearing

29

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 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 rat-ing on their box or a label located 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 de-vice 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.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”) than unrated phones. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing de-vices have telecoils in them.)Your phone meets the M4/T3 level rating.

30

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manu-facturer or hearing health professional may help you find this rat-ing.For more information about FCC Hearing Aid Compatibility, please go to http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro.

Turn on HAC Touch the Home Key > > Settings > Call, and then check

Hearing aids to turn the hearing aid compatibility on.When the HAC setting is on, your phone sends the audio from your phone calls to the telecoil rather than to the microphone of your hearing aid. You are likely to hear calls much better be-cause volume is increased and background noise and feedback are diminished. The HAC setting improves only the calls you lis-ten to through the earpiece. It does not affect calls heard on the speakerphone or a headset. It’s better to turn off the Bluetooth function when the HAC setting is on. HAC requires extra battery power, so watch your battery consumption when it’s turned on. NOTE: Do not turn on the HAC setting unless you use a hearing aid with a telecoil. Using this setting without a hearing aid or with a hearing aid without a telecoil may be harmful to your hearing.

31
