Restricting Children's Access to Your Phone Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your invoice. Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device A number of wireless phones have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some wireless phones are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing device. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference noise they may generate. ANSI standard C63.19 was developed to provide a standardized means of measuring both wireless phone and hearing devices to determine usability rating categories for both. Ratings have been developed for mobile phones to assist hearing device users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices. Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box. Your SPH-M320 has an M4 and T4 rating. These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a hearing device is 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.) Hearing aid devices may also be measured for immunity to interference noise from wireless phones and should have ratings similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your hearing 116 Section 4A. Important Safety Information

Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference

users find phones that may be compatible with their hearing device. Not
all phones have been rated for compatibility with hearing devices.
Phones that have been rated have a label located on the box.
Your SPH-M320 has an M4 and T4 rating
.
These ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the
user’s hearing device and individual type and degree of hearing loss. If a
hearing device is particularly vulnerable to interference noise; even a
