Certification information (SAR)
Your model wireless phone meets the governmental requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured to not
exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. overnment and by the Canadian regulatory authorities. 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 for the safety of all persons, regardless of age or health, and
to account for any variations in measurements. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs
a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The IEEE SAR limit set by
the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg), averaged
over one gram of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using procedures accepted by the FCC and
by Industry Canada with the mobile device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequencies. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the mobile device while operating can be below the maximum value. This is because
the mobile 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, the lower
the power output.
Before a mobile device is available for sale to the public in the U.S. and Canada, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by each
government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear
and worn on the body) submitted to the FCC and available for review by Industry Canada. The
highest SAR value for this mobile device when tested for use at the ear is 850/1900: 0.77 W/kg,
and when worn on the body, as described in this guide, is 850/1900: 0.40 W/kg. Body-worn
measurements can differ, depending upon available accessories and regulatory requirements. The
SAR information includes the Motorola testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement
uncertainty range for this product. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various mobile devices and at various positions, they meet the governmental requirements for safe
exposure. Please note that improvements to this product model could cause differences in the SAR
value for later products; in all cases, products are designed to be within the guidelines.
FCC STATEMENT
1. 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. (2) This device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: 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.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply With RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1.5cm must be maintained between the
user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and
Similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided.
