THIS RADIO PRODUCT MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless radio product 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 devices 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 using standard operating positions
reviewed by the FCC with the device 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 device while operating can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the radio device 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 radio product is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC that is 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 highest SAR value for this radio product when tested for use during
packet data transmission is 1.42 W/kg.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID AZ489FT5811.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://
www.wow-com.com.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the
public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
