• RADIO WAVES:
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio-frequency
(RF) energy. 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. These guidelines
include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities
such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government (FCC),
or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the mobile phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
This device complies with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure
limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the
measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1725.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and
can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
searching on FCC ID: 2ACCJN008.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the mobile 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 of
the mobile phone. Before a mobile phone model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone when tested is 1.16 W/Kg
for use at the ear and 1.16 W/Kg for use close to the body.
8
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and
at various positions, they all meet the government requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of
10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device at least 10 mm
away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the
reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or holsters,
which do not contain metallic components, to maintain a separation of 15 mm
between this device and your body.
(2)
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains metal,
was not tested and certified, and use such body-worn accessory should be
avoided.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.ctia.org/
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific
information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of
mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own
or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using “handsfree” devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body. Additional
WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available
on the following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
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 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio service
(e.g. FM broadcast), they bear the following statement:
