Federal Communication Commission Interference
Statement
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 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.
 Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician
for help.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
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.
Important Note
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operating
instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. To maintain compliance
with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, please follow operation
instruction as documented in this manual.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter, except the transmitters built-in with
the device.
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- 09 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-aid. 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 aid 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
rated. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. Your device is rated M4.
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 T3.
Please power off the Bluetooth function while using hearing aid devices
®
with your A621BL.
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 TCL Communication Ltd. 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.
