SAR INFORMATION
THIS MODEL PHONE 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 radiofrequency
(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 with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the 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.
This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as
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.

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FCC RF
EXPOSURE
Warning! Read this information before using your phone.
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted
an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by
both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone
complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
BODY-WORN OPERATION
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back
of the phone kept 2.0 cm from the body. To maintain compliance with
FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar
accessories that maintain a 2.0 cm separation distance between the
user’s body and the back of the phone, including the antenna. The use
of belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic
components in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy
these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements,
and should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
