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.
Safety Precautions for Radio Frequency 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 Radio Frequency
exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement
•
This Transmitter has been demonstrated co-location compliance requirements with Bluetooth and
WLAN.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
•
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your phone 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 Radio Frequency 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-Ionising 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 phone has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or
modified antennas may impair call quality and damage your phone, causing loss of performance and
SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory
requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to Radio Frequency energy is
within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your phone only in its normal-use
position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call.
Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your phone to operate at a higher
power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when your phone is IN USE
optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC 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 operation can
be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power
