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 rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings. Your device is rated M3.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to be more usable with
a hearing aid's telecoil than phones that are not rated.
T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated T4.
Please power off the Bluetooth
with your A845L.
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 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 better use. A sum of 8 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 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.
This methodology applies equally for T ratings. 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.

THIS MODEL DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. For body worn operation, this phone has
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the
TCT Mobile Limited. Accessories supplied or designated for this product.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Your wireless mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
 American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992 .
 National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).
Report 86. 1986.
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP) 1996.
 Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phone employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg*.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of https://fjallfoss.
