over 1 gram of tissu e. The SAR limit recomm ended by The Council of th e European Union is

2.0W/kg averaged over any 1 0 grams of tissue.

The FCC and IC h ave granted an Equipment Aut horization for this device wi th all reported
SAR levels eval uated as in complianc e with the FCC and IC RF exposure g uidelines. SAR
information o n this device is on file with the FC C and IC, and can be found u nder the

Display Gr ant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searchi ng on FCC ID: CNFHWRP1
and FCC ID: CNF HWMR1 and under the Ind ustry Canada Radio Eq uipment List databas e
http://www.ic.gc.ca/app/sitt/reltel/srch/nwRdSrch.do? lang=eng after searching FCC ID:
CNFHWMR1 and 10193A-HWMR1.

This device is in compliance with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure
limits in ANS I/IEEE C95.1-1999 and has been tes ted in accordance with the m easurement
methods and p rocedures specifi ed in OET Bulletin 65 Sup plement C.
