THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVE RNMENT’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.
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.
User Guide for the Kyocera Rave phonev
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 net work. I n gene ral, th e closer you ar e
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 these model phones are:
availability of accessories and FCC requirements. The body-worn SAR values
vi
provided above were obtained by using Kyocera Wireless Corp. [KWC] supplied
and approved case CA90-B1799-01 and universal belt clip 55-B1795-01).
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 the FCC ID:
Model: KE433FCC ID: OVFKWC-KE433
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
and Internet Association (CTIA) web-site 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.

RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones. These
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies in the following reports:
•ANSI C95.1 (American National Standards Institute, 1992)
•NCRP Report 86 (National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements, 1986)
