FCC Notice

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 (2) this device must accept any interference 
received, including interference that may cause 
undesired operation. To maintain compliance with 
FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a handset 
on your body, use the Kyocera Wireless Corp. (KWC) 
supplied and approved holster CV90-K0832-01.
Other accessories used with this device for body-worn

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 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 standards that were developed by independent 
scientific organizations 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 using 
standard operating positions specified by the FCC 
with the phone transmitting at its highest certified 
power level in all tested frequency bands.
