THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.
It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emis-
sion limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set
by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guide-
lines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines are based on standards
that were developed by independent scientific organiza-
tions 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 phones 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 with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certi-
fied power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the net-
work. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model
is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certi-
fied to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
