Regulatory Information

The following topics provide important regulatory information.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless
Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed into the head of a user
of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process.
It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest
value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially
less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity
to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that
each phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in
safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As
stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations in
safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for use by the
public.
The highest reported SAR values of the ALCATEL ONETOUCH Elevate are:
Head: 0.93 W/kg (1g)
Body-worn: 1.46 W/kg (1g)
For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of
1.0 cm from the user's body.

FCC Radio Frequency Emission

This phone meets the FCC Radio Frequency Emission Guidelines.
FCC ID number: 2ACCJB011
More information on the phone's SAR can be found from the following FCC website:

Using Your Phone with a Hearing Aid Device

A number of Boost phones have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some
wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device.
