FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of
the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326
adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international standards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,
damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may
result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using
the optional belt-clip/holster placed 0.7 inches (1.8cm) from the
body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. The use of third-party belt-clips/
holsters with no metallic components that provide the minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) can be used to satisfy
FCC RF exposure requirements. The use of non-tested
accessories or other body-worn operations may not comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Contact
your local dealer for optional accessory items.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available.)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be
maintained Between a person and the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.

SAR Information & FCC ID Labeling
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
radiofrequency (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 know as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/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. Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone 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 phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. 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 phone when tested for
use at the ear is XXXXX and when worn on the body, as described in
this user guide, is XXXXX . (Body-worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements).
[Labeling Committee note: if applicable, if body-
worn SARs are required]
. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
