This model device meets the U.S. Government's
requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This model device contains a radio transmitter and
receiver. This model device is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy as set by the FCC 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 exposure standard for wireless tablet PC employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
as accepted by the FCC with the device 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 device while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the device 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 level of
the device.
Before a tablet PC model is available for sale to the public,
it must be tested and certified to prove to the FCC that it
does not exceed the limit established by the U.S.
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The
tests are performed on position and locations (for
example, worn on the body) as required by FCC for each
model. The highest SAR value for this model device as
reported to the FCC, when worn on the body, is 1.330W/kg.
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels at
various positions, they all meet the U.S. government
requirements.
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 Equipment Authorization
Search section at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ (please
search on FCC ID VQK-F01D).
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and
meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an
accessory designated for this product or when used with
an accessory that contains no metal.

In the United States, the SAR limit for wireless tablet PC used by
the general public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg), averaged over one
gram of tissue. SAR values may vary depending upon national
reporting requirements and the network band.
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 or more 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/TV
technician for help.
