Fcc Regulatory Compliance - AT&T Pantech Link Manual Del Usuario

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 find 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.
• 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 generate less interference to hearing devices than phones that are
not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer
or hearing health professional may help you find this rating. Higher
ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to interference
78
noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added
together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is
considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the
wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal
M5. This is synonymous for T ratings. This should provide the hearing aid
user with " normal usage" while using their hearing aid with the particular
wireless phone. " Normal usage" in this context is defined as a signal quality
that is acceptable for normal operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark
is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are
recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries Solutions
(ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC
Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone
is maintained, secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth and WLAN
components must be disabled during a call. See Page 62 for instructions to
disable these components.

FCC Regulatory Compliance

FCC Regulatory Compliance
This 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 undesired operation.
Your mobile device is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When
it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In
August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile devices. Those
guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies: American National Standard Institute
(ANSI), National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP), and International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNRP). Those standards were based on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. The design of your
phone complies with the FCC guidelines and applicable.
Statement according to FCC part 15.105
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 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.
– C onsult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Statement according to FCC part 15.21
Modifications not expressly approved by this company could void the
user' s authority to operate the equipment.
RF exposure FCC
For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, use only accessories that contain no metallic components and
provide a separation distance of 20 mm (0.6 inches) to the body. Use of
other accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be
avoided.
This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
