IMPORTANT NOTE:
Consumer Information on SAR:
This Model Device Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio
Waves. Your wireless device 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 (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of
two expert organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering
experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of
the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy. The exposure
limit for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of
RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The
FCC requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram
(1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although 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. Because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels
to use only the power required to reach the network, generally, the closer you are to
a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a device 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. This device was
tested for typical body-worn operations. Third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar
accessories containing metallic components should not be used.
