bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that the
SAR of handheld wireless device not exceed 1.6
watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of
tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest
power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless
device while operating can be less than the
reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value
may vary from call to call, depending on factors
such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity of
the device to the body while in use, and the use
of hands-free devices. Before a device 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.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model device is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC
ID ZNFV500.

Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several
simple steps you can take to minimize your RF
exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time.
You can place more distance between your body
and the source of the RF, as the exposure level
drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/
FCC website states that "hands-free kits can be
used with wireless devices for convenience and
comfort. These systems reduce the absorption
of RF energy in the head because the device,
which is the source of the RF emissions, will not
be placed against the head. On the other hand, if
the device is mounted against the waist or other
part of the body during use, then that part of
the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless
devices marketed in the U.S. are required to meet
safety requirements regardless of whether they
are used against the head or against the body.
Either configuration should result in compliance
with the safety limit. " Also, if you use your wireless
