Appendix 227

Modifications

The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications

made to the device that are not expressly approved by High Tech Computer

Corporation may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Safety precautions for RF exposure

Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories

that do not contain any metal.

Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate

your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output

power is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These

limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels

of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the

safety standards previously set by international standards bodies:

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).

Report 86. 1986

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP) 1996

Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. 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 standard

incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for

the public and to account for any variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that

for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel,

it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too

close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna.

Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and
