General Notes
Electromagnetic Waves
For body-worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets RF exposure guidelines when used with accessories containing no metal, that position handset a minimum of 15 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
CE Declaration of Conformity
In some countries/regions, such as France, there are restrictions on the use of Wi-Fi. If you intend to use Wi-Fi on the handset abroad, check the local laws and regulations beforehand.
Hereby, KYOCERA Corporation declares that 101K is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.

RF Exposure Information/Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information
This mobile phone 101K meets the MIC’s* technical regulation for exposure to radio waves.
The technical regulation established permitted levels of radio frequency energy, based on standards developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The regulation employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit is 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg)** averaged over ten grams of tissue.
The limit includes a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The value of the limit is equal to the international guidelines recommended by ICNIRP***.
The highest SAR value for this mobile phone is X.XX W/kg when tested for use at the ear.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, all phones meet MIC’s technical regulation.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the phone during operation can be well below the maximum value.

FCC RF Exposure Information
Your handset 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. Government.
The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organization 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 handsets 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. 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 value for this model handset as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is X.XX W/kg, and when worn on the body in a holder or carry case, is X.XX W/kg.
Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the handset kept 1.5 cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain a 1.5 cm separation distance between the user's body and the back of the handset. The use of beltclips,
