output.
Caution
The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the warranty and user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must
be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the
limit established by the government-adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model.
Optimize your Phone’s Performance
Use the instructions in this guide to learn how to optimize the
performance and life of your phone and battery.
Air Bags
Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon availability of 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 for safe exposure.
If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or portable
phone equipment or other objects over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. If equipment is not properly installed, you
and your passengers risk serious injury.
Medical Devices

Use of any unauthorized accessories may be dangerous and will
void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage or a
defect to the phone.
Potentially explosive atmospheres—Turn off your phone
when you are in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury
or death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, clearly marked.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is on,
it receives and sends out RF energy. Your service provider’s
network controls the power of the RF signal. This power level
can range from 0.006 to 0.6 watts.
They include:
•
•
•
•
fueling areas such as gas stations
below deck on boats
In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
hand-held wireless phones. These guidelines are consistent with
the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane or
butane
international standards bodies in the following reports:
•
•
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as
grain, dust, or metal powders
•
•
ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards Institute, 1992)
NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements, 1986)
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine
•
ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection, 1996)
Use with Care
Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid dropping, hitting,
bending, or sitting on the phone.
Your phone complies with the standards set by these reports
and the FCC guidelines.

The higher the phone’s “M” rating, the more likely the phone is
compatible with a hearing aid operating in the microphone
setting. Hearing aids also have ratings similar to wireless
phones. Most newer hearing aid models receive at least an M2
rating.
E911 Mandates
Where service is available, this phone complies with the Phase I
and Phase II E911 Mandates issued by the FCC.
Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) Features
This payLo by Virgin Mobile phone has received a HAC
To determine the level of compatibility between your hearing aid
and this payLo by Virgin Mobile HAC certified phone, combine
the M rating of your hearing aid and the M rating of this phone.
For example, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M4 phone,
you will achieve a combined rating of 7.
performance rating (designated by the letter M followed by a
number). The rating for this phone is identified on the outside of
this phone’s original packaging. While there is no guarantee,
digital wireless phones that receive a minimum of an M3 rating
should provide acceptable performance with most hearing aids.
Hearing loss and hearing aids are highly individualized,
however, so optimal performance cannot be guaranteed. Other
factors, such as type of hearing aid device or degree of hearing
loss, also can affect a phone’s performance for a particular user.
•
Any combined rating equal to or greater than 6 provides
excellent performance.
•
•
Any combined rating equal to 5 offers good performance.
Any combined rating equal to 4 offers acceptable
performance.
Hearing Aids and Wireless Phones
T-Ratings—Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and
are likely to be more usable with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T
Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4 is the
better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing
devices have telecoils in them.)
A hearing aid uses a microphone to collect and convert sound
waves to electrical signals. The hearing aid then amplifies and
converts the electrical signals back to audible sounds for the
hearing aid user to hear. Radio Frequency (RF) emissions
generated by digital wireless phones often interfere with the
operation of a hearing aid’s microphone, distorting the amplified
audible sound. In addition, hearing aid microphones tend to
collect ambient noise and amplify these sounds, interfering with
the desired audio transmission.
Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type
of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing
health professional may help you choose the proper rating for
your mobile phone. The more immune your hearing aid is, the
less likely you are to experience interference noise from mobile
phones.
ANSI Standard
To diminish interference between wireless phones and hearing
aids, the FCC requires wireless carriers to offer phones that
meet the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19
standard for reduced RF emissions. Wireless phones that
comply with the FCC’s hearing aidcompatibility (HAC)
regulations must receive a minimum rating of “M3” for RF
emissions under the ANSI C63.19 standard. The “M” rating
refers to the phone’s RF emissions level for use with hearing
aids operating in the microphone setting.
