VX6100

The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the

ear is 0.934 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user

guide, is 0.605 W/kg (body-worn measurements differ among phone

models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).

While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones

and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for

safe exposure.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone

with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF

emission guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file

with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID BEJVX6100.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be

found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA)

website at http://www.wow-com.com.

In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones

used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of

tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to

give additional protection for the public and to account for any

variations in measurements.

Consumer Information on SAR

(Specific Absorption Rate)

This phone model meets the government’s requirements for exposure

to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.

It 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. These limits are

part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF

energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on

standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations

through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The

standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the

safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

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 specified by the FCC with the phone

transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency

bands. Although 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. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple

power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, in

general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower

the power output.

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.
