THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
This device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency
electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific
organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
for mobile devices is 2 W/kg.
