Consumer Information on SAR

This phone model 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. 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 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. Because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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 value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.54 W/kg
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.54 W/kg (body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and
FCC requirements).

While there may be differences between 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 of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
BEJLG620G. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found
on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://www.
ctia.org.

* 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.

TIA Safety Information

The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones.

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna

affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive
and always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please observe the following:

• Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility.

• Use hands-free operation, if available.

• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the
law require it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation
of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent
with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON;

• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;

• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service
line to discuss alternatives).

For Your Safety

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept

0.79 inches (2cm) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.79 inches (2cm)
must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone. Third-party
belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components should not be
used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.79 inches (2cm) separation distance
between the user’s body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical
body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be
avoided.

Part 15.21 statement

Change or Modifications that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Part 15.19 statement

This device and its accessories comply with part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device and its accessories may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device and its accessories must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Part 15.105 statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. if this equipment does cause harmful interference or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures.

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC) with Mobile Phones

When some mobile phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices
are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the
amount of interference they generate. The wireless telephone industry has developed
ratings for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing device users in finding phones
that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated.
Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label on the box. The ratings are not
guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If
your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use
a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way
to evaluate it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher
of the two ratings.

T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable
with a hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated phones. T4
is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in
them.)

Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your
hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results
for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to
experience interference noise from mobile phones.
To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone is maintained,
secondary transmitters such as Bluetooth® and WLAN components must be disabled
during a call.

Notice! Achieve optimal antenna performance of the phone by sliding the phone open

to make or receive a call.
