FCC RF Exposure Information
Your handset 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.
The guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organization 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 handsets employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/k
g
. 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.
The highest SAR value for this model handset as reported
to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is
.
W/k
g
,
and when worn on the body in a holder or carry case, is
.
W/k
g
.
Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical
body-worn operations with the handset kept 1.0 cm from
the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
requirements, use accessories that maintain a 1.0 cm
separation distance between the user's body and the
handset. The use of beltclips, holsters and similar
accessories should not contain metallic components in its
assembly.
