particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a phone with a higher rating may still cause unacceptable noise levels in the hearing device. 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 for hearing aid compatibility and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than unrated phones. (M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.) 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.) Caring for the Battery Protecting Your Battery The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery's performance. ⅷ Recently there have been some public reports of wireless phone batteries overheating, catching fire or exploding. It appears that many, if not all, of these reports involve counterfeit or inexpensive, aftermarketbrand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing standards. LG is not aware of similar problems with LG phones resulting from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved by LG. Use only approved batteries and accessories found through LG. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they're genuine and safe. ⅷ In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from 32° F to 113° F (0° C to 45° C). ⅷ Don't use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom. ⅷ Never dispose of the battery by incineration. ⅷ Keep the metal contacts on top of the battery clean. ⅷ Don't attempt to disassemble or short-circuit the battery. ⅷ The battery may need recharging if it has not been used for a long period of time. ⅷ It's best to replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. It can be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing. ⅷ Don't store the battery in high temperature areas for long periods of time. It's best to follow these storage rules: Section 4A: Important Safety Information 93 Important Safety Information
