or M4/T4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid device. Should you
experience interference or find the quality of service unsatisfactory after purchasing your phone,
promptly return it to the store. More information about hearing aid compatibility may be found at:

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, aftermarket-brand batteries with unknown or questionable manufacturing
standards. Boost Mobile is not aware of similar problems with Boost Mobile phones resulting
from the proper use of batteries and accessories approved by the manufacturer of your phone.
Use only manufacturer-approved batteries and accessories found
through your phone’s
manufacturer. Buying the right batteries and accessories is the best way to ensure they’re
genuine and safe.

Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred the battery.
n
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 hazard.
n
Avoid dropping the phone or battery. If the phone or battery is dropped, especially on a hard
surface, and the user suspects damage, take it to a service center for inspection.
