    196  Appendix Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class  B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed  to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency  energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause  harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that  interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause  harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined  by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the  interference by one of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to  which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the  party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this  equipment. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the  following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and  () this device must accept any interference received, including interference that  may cause undesired operation. Important - Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC  radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must  follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. To  maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, please follow  operation instruction as documented in this guide. This transmitter must not be co- located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter, except ...

For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF  exposure guidelines when used with the HTC Corporation accessories supplied or  designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance  with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. Your wireless mobile CDMA phone 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 the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards  bodies: • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-199. • National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report  86. 1986. • International Commission on Non-Ionizing 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 CDMA phone 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*.
  • Page 198 198  Appendix The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with  all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure  guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can  be found under the Display Grant section of https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/ cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm after searching on FCC ID: NM8HERO00.  Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the  Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website as http://www. phonefacts.net. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the  Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website as http://www. phonefacts.net. * In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile CDMA phone 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 usage. Normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the  interference. 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.
  • Page 199: Safety Information

    Appendix  199 Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) Safety Information Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum  separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone  and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These  recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and  recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers: Should ALWAYS keep your phone more than six inches from their pacemaker   when your phone is turned on.  Should not carry your phone in a breast pocket.  Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for   interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,  turn your phone off immediately. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of  such interference, you may want to consult your wireless service provider, or call  the customer service line to discuss alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your  phone to determine if they are adequately shielded from external Radio Frequency  energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn the phone off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in  these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using  equipment that could be sensitive to external Radio Frequency energy.
