THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS 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 radio frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
User Guide for the Kyocera 3250 phonev
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.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions specified 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.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC that it 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. The highest SAR values for this model phone are:
vi
Cellular Band (Part 22)-Head:1.26 mW/g; Body-worn: 0.47 mW/g with KWC case
CA90-G2701-01, 0.81 mW/g with 15 mm air separation; Face: 0.39 mW/g with at
least one inch (2.5 cm) separation.
PCS Band (Part 24)-Head:1.30 mW/g; Body-worn: 0.28 mW/g with KWC case
CA90-G2701-01, 0.53 mW/g with 15 mm air separation; Face: 0.20 mW/g with at
least one inch (2.5 cm) separation.
Recommended body worn accessories are only intended for use with the
standard battery door, not the sport clip.
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
availability of accessories and FCC requirements. The body-worn SAR values
provided above were obtained by using Kyocera Wireless Corp. (KWC)
approved case CA90-G2701-01 and holster 50-L2440-01. The sport clip is not
designed to be a body-worn accessory).
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 emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can
be found under the Display Grant section http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID OVFKWC-3250. Additional information on SAR can be
User Guide for the Kyocera 3250 phonevii
found on the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA) website at http://www.wow-com.com.
* In 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.
Caution
The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by
the party responsible for compliance could void the warranty and user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
Warning
Use only Kyocera approved accessories with Kyocera phones. Use of any
unauthorized accessories (includes faceplates/front housings) may be
dangerous and will invalidate the phone warranty if said accessories cause
damage or a defect to the phone.
Walkie-Talkie radio feature
When using your phone as a walkie-talkie radio, hold the phone a minimum
separation distance of one inch (2.5 cm) between your face and the device,
including the antenna, to comply with FCC exposure limits.

If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or portable phone equipment or
other objects over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If equipment is
not properly installed, you and your passengers risk serious injury.
Medical devices
Pacemakers—Warning to pacemaker wearers: wireless phones, when in the ‘on’
position, have been shown to interfere with pacemakers. The phone should be
kept at least six (6) inches away from the pacemaker to reduce risk.
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association and the wireless technology
research community recommend that you follow these guidelines to minimize the
potential for interference.
•Always keep the phone at least six inches (15 centimeters) away from your
pacemaker when the phone is turned on.
•Do not carry your phone near your heart.
•Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.
