Fcc Hearing-Aid Compatibility (Hac) Regulations For Wireless Devices - Pantech Breeze II User Manual

dispose of batteries by burning; they may
explode.
– Do not use an unauthorized charger. Only
use the battery for the device for which it is
specified.
– Only use the battery with a charging device
that has been qualified with the device
per this standard. Use of an unqualified
battery or charger may present a risk of fire,
explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
– Do not short circuit a battery or allow
metallic conductive objects to contact
battery terminals.
– Replace the battery only with another
battery that has been qualified with
the device per this standard, IEEE-

charging is complete. Leaving the battery in
hot or cold places, especially inside a car in
summer or winter, may reduce the capacity
and life of the battery. Always keep the
battery within normal temperatures.
– To prevent injury or burns, ensure that no
metal objects come into contact with the +

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility
(HAC) regulations for wireless
devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Report
and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing
Aid Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to
require digital wireless phones be compatible
with hearing-aids.
The intent of the HAC Act is to ensure
reasonable access to telecommunications
services for persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are used near
some hearing devices (hearing aids and
cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,
