Health and safety information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Certification Information (SAR)
Your wireless Tablet PC is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (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 Counsel 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 set by the FCC for wireless mobile Tablet PCs employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (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 Tablet PCs 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.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the Tablet PC 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 Tablet PC while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the Tablet PC 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.
Before a new model Tablet PC is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the
FCC. Tests for each model Tablet PC are performed in positions and locations as
required by the FCC.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC RF
exposure guidelines.

Please use the Tablet PC FCC ID number for
search, A3LSMT555C.
Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack
to find the number. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular Tablet PC,
follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or
maximum SAR for a particular Tablet PC. Additional product specific SAR
