SAR INFORMATION STATEMENT

Your wireless CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (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 CAR ALARM (TWO
WAY) employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by
the FCC is 4.0 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted with the CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) 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 CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) 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 CAR
ALARM (TWO WAY) 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 highest SAR value for this model CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) when tested for
use at the extremity is 0.049W/Kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an
Equipment Authorization for this model CAR ALARM (TWO WAY) with all reported SAR levels
