0.30 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ
among phones models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between
SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching
on FCC ID BEJC900.
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR
limit for mobile phones used by the public
is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates
a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) with Mobile Phones
When some mobile 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
ratings for some of their mobile phones, to
assist hearing device users in finding 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 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.
