4.

A label must be affixed to the outside of the end product into which the 
EM7565 module is incorporated, with a statement similar to the following:

· This device contains FCC ID: N7NEM75

Contains transmitter module IC: 2417C-EM75 where 2417C-EM75 is 
the module’s certification number.

5.

A user manual with the end product must clearly indicate the operating 
requirements and conditions that must be observed to ensure compliance 
with current FCC/IC RF exposure guidelines.

The end product with an embedded EM7565 module may also need to pass the 
FCC Part 15 unintentional emission testing requirements and be properly 
authorized per FCC Part 15.

Note: 

If this module is intended for use in a portable device, you are responsible 

for separate approval to satisfy the SAR requirements of FCC Part 2.1093 and 
IC RSS-102.
