• 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 radiofrequency (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.
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 model mobile phone POP 4 PLUS 5056E when
tested is 0.78 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.18 W/Kg for use close to the body.
8 9
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various mobile
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement
for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the mobile phone meets FCC RF
exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic accessory with
the handset at least 15 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not
ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
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
“hands-free” devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.
(fact sheet n°193). 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:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
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.
Your mobile phone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation,
you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions
other than against your ear. In such circumstances, the device will be compliant
with the guidelines when used with headset or USB data cable. If you are using
another accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and
that it positions the mobile phone at least 15 mm away from the body.
