Regulatory
information

FCC Notice

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits

for a Class B digital device, 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.

Antenna Care/Unauthorized Modifications

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna

modifications or attachments could damage the unit and may violate

FCC regulations. Any changes or modifications not expressly

approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the

user's authority to operate the equipment.

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.

1

A Palm

®

brand body-worn accessory that has been tested for

SAR compliance and is intended for use with this product.

2

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 www.fcc.gov/oet/

rfsafety/ for more information on RF exposure safety.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Devices

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF

energy absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a device is the result of an extensive testing,

measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much

RF the device emits. All device models are tested at their highest

value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a

device can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC.

This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base

station antenna, device design and other factors. What is important

to remember is that each device meets strict federal guidelines.

Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.

All devices must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a

substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR

values between different model devices do not mean variations in

safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are

considered safe for use by the public.
