Operational Precautions

To assure optimal radio product performance and to be
sure that human exposure to RF does not exceed the
guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always
follow these instructions and precautions:

70

Two-way radio operation

Your radio product has been designed and tested to
comply with national and international standards and
guidelines regarding human exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy, when operated in the two-way
mode (at the face, or at the abdomen when using an audio
accessory) at usage factors of up to 50% talk/ 50% listen.

Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the
time. To transmit (talk), push the PTT button. To receive
calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the
time or less is important because this radio generates
measurable RF energy only when transmitting (in terms of
measuring for standards compliance).
When using your radio product as a traditional two-way
radio, hold the radio product in a vertical position with the
microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the
lips.

Product Operation

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio
product as you would a wire-line telephone. Speak directly
into the microphone.

If you wear a radio product on your body when
transmitting, always place the radio product in a pre­approved clip, holder, holster, case or body harness. If you
do not use a pre-approved body-worn accessory and are
not using the radio product in the intended use positions

alongside the head in the phone mode or in front of the
face in the two-way radio mode - or if you hang your
device from a lanyard around your neck - keep the device
at least 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) from your body when
transmitting.

Safety and General Information

71

ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID WSM-IGP801 MEET 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.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it
must be tested and certified by the FCC that is 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.

This equipment complies with the FCC radiation exposure
limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

For body operation, models with FCC ID WSM-IGP801
have been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure

guidelines when used directly against the body. Specific
Absorption Rate or SAR is a measurement of radio
frequency energy. The FCC permits a maximum SAR
value of 1.6 W/kg¹. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions reviewed 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.

The highest SAR value for this product when used on the
body, as described in this user's guide, is 0.59 W/kg
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements)².

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.

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
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
WSM-IGP801.

72

¹In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.

²The SAR information reported to the FCC includes the
FCC-accepted testing protocol, assessment procedure,
and measurement uncertainty range for this product.

The device is also designed to the SAR limit stated in the
ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over 10 grams of tissue. The actual SAR level of an
operating device can be below the maximum value
depending on a number of factors such as the distance to
a network base station.

The highest SAR value for the i976 under the ICNIRP

guidelines for use of the device at the ear is 0.47 W/kg
