Regulatory Information

FCC regulations

This mobile phone 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.
This mobile phone 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.

41

42

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 or more 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/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This mobile phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
This phone 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.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones 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. *Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate
at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.

43

44

The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when
tested for use at the ear is 1.29 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.89 W/kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and
FCC requirements.).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.
gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: YHLBLUB160V.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal
and the positions the handset with a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.

Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are
not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.5
cm from your body when the phone is switched on.

Safety precautions for power supply unit

Use the correct external power source
A product should be operated only from the type of power source

Handle battery packs carefully
This product contains a Lithium-ion battery. There is a risk of fire and
burns if the battery pack is handled improperly. Do not attempt to open
or service the battery pack. Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, short
circuit the external contacts or circuits, dispose of in fire or water, or
expose a battery pack to temperatures higher than 140°F (60°C). The
operating temperature for the phone is 14°F (-10°C) to 113°F (45°C).
Warning: Battery is non-removable. Do not attempt to remove
the battery for danger of explosion.
To reduce risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush, puncture,
short circuit the external contacts, expose to temperature above 113°F
(45°C), or dispose of in fire or water. Do not attempt to replace the
non-removable battery. The phone and battery as a unibody device
must be disposed of in accordance with locally applicable environmental
regulations or guides supplied with your product.

47

Take extra precautions
•  Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or

shred.

•  Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into
the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to
fire, explosion, or other hazards.

•  Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified

with the system per CTIA Certification Requirement for Battery System
Compliance to IEEE1725. Use of an unqualified battery or charger may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazards.

•  Replace the battery only with another battery that has been qualified

with the system per this standard, IEEE-Std-1725. Use of an
unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or
other hazards. Only authorized service providers shall replace battery.
(If the battery is non-user replaceable).

•  Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local

regulations.

•  Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazards.
48

•  Do not replace an embedded battery pack. Improper replacement may
present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage or other hazards. Contact the
manufacturer for replacement instructions.

•  The phone identifies the battery by the Battery ID Pin.
•  If the battery leaks:

•  Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with skin or

clothing. If already in contact, flush the affected area immediately
with clean water and seek medical advice.

•  Do not allow the leaking fluid to come in contact with eyes.
If already in contact, DO NOT rub; rinse with clean water
immediately and seek medical advice.

•  Take extra precautions to keep a leaking battery away from fire as

there is a danger of ignition or explosion.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC)

This device is hearing aid-compatible as determined by ANSI C63.19-
2019 and waiver DA-23-914. The lowest conversational gain is 10.32
dB with a hearing-aid, and 13.93 dB without hearing-aid, using telecoil
coupling capability and Bluetooth connectivity.
The 2019 ANSI C63.19 standard does not use this rating system nor
do any test standards exist for any wireless technologies that transmit
above 6 GHz. Instead, this standard uses the conversational gains for
the device’s hearing aid compatible capabilities.
This device has been tested and certified for use with hearing aids for
some of the wireless technologies that it uses. However, there may be
some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been
tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your
hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering
noise. Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone
for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions about
return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or retailer.
