California Perchlorate Label
Some mobile phones use an internal, permanent backup battery on the printed
Perchlorate Label
circuit board that may contain very small amounts of perchlorate. In such cases,
California law requires the following label:
Perchlorate Material – special handling may apply when the battery is recycled or
disposed of. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate
There is no special handling required by consumers.
Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile
Phones
Some Motorola phones are measured for compatibility with hearing aids. If the box
Hearing Aid Compatibility
for your particular model has "Rated for Hearing Aids" printed on it, the following
explanation applies.
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. To maintain the published Hearing
Aid Compatibility (HAC) rating for this mobile phone, use only the original equipment
battery model.
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.
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
