FCC Statement
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
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 to radio
or television reception, which can be determ ined by
turning the equipment off a nd on , t he user i s 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
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions
(1)this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
SAR Information Statement
Your Mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (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 a nd
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 with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified power lev el
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 test e d
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 0.78W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in
this user guide, is 1.02W/Kg (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon av ailable
accessories and FCC requirements). The maximum
scaled SAR in hotspot mode is 1.06W/Kg. 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 exposure 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: 2AQ4G-SSB5018R Additional information on
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry 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.
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations.
To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 10mm must be maintained
between the user’ s body and the handset, including the
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar
accessories used by this device should not contain any
metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do
not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only
the supplied or an approved antenna.
