Guidelines for safe and efficient use
to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the body is 0.000 W/kg.
* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/ kilogram (W/
kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network band.
FCC SAR information
Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product certification for use at the ear is 0.00 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 0.00 W/kg. Additionally, this device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1 cm (0.39 inches) between the users body and the back of the phone.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1 cm (0.39 inches) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone.
* FCC Notice & Caution Notice!
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
