Hearing Aid Compatibility (Hac) Regulations For Mobile Phones - Alcatel STREAK Guía De Usuario

This mobile phone 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:
• 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.

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
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. 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.
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 more information on hearing
aid compatibility. If you have questions about return or exchange policies,
consult your service provider or phone retailer.
