Regulatory
Information
FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B computer peripheral, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
RF Safety Exposure
To Radio Frequency Energy (RFE) Radio transmitting devices radiate
Radio Frequency (RF) energy during its operation. RF energy can be
absorbed into the human body and potentially can cause adverse
health effects if excessive levels are absorbed. The unit of
measurement for human exposure to RF energy is “Specific
Absorption Rate” (SAR).
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Industrie Canada
(IC), and other agencies around the world have established limits that
incorporate a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons using this equipment.
In order to certify this unit for sale in the US, Canada and Europe this
unit has been tested for RF exposure compliance at a qualified test
laboratory and found to comply with the regulations regarding
exposure to RF Energy.
SAR was measured with the unit transmitting at its maximum
certified RF power. Often, however, during normal operation the unit
will transmit much less than maximum power. Transmit power is
controlled automatically and, in general is reduced as you get closer
to a cellular base station. This reduction in transmit power will result
in a lower RF energy exposure and resulting SAR value.
FCC RF Safety Statement
In order to comply with FCC RF exposure safety guidelines, users
MUST use one of the following types of bodyworn accessories.
•
A Palm
®
brand body-worn accessory that has been tested for
SAR compliance and is intended for use with this product.
•
An accessory that contains NO metal (snaps, clips, etc) and
provides AT LEAST 1.5 cm of separation between the users body
and the unit.
Do NOT use the device in a manner such that it is in direct
contact with the body (i.e. on the lap or in a breast pocket). Such use
will likely exceed FCC RF safety exposure limits. See
for more information on RF exposure
safety.
The Palm
®
Treo™ 700wx smartphone may be used with a Wi-Fi
®
SDIO card; however, the user must ensure that the SDIO Wi-Fi card
has been approved by the FCC for use with the Treo 700wx
smartphone. For a list of SDIO Wi-Fi cards approved by the FCC for
use with the Treo 700wx smartphone, please go to ww.palm.com/
support.
If using a SDIO Wi-Fi card not approved for use with the Treo 700wx
smartphone by the FCC, the user must turn off the phone (CDMA
radio) on the Treo 700wx smartphone.
