For Your Safety
ForYourSafety
Before assembling, charging or using your mobile device for the first time, please read
the important product safety and legal information provided with your product.
Warning: Don't try to remove or replace the battery yourself—doing so may damage
the battery and could cause burning and injury. If your phone becomes unresponsive, try
a reboot—press and hold both the Power and the Volume Down keys until the screen
goes dark, and your phone restarts.
Specific Absorption Rate (FCC & IC)
SAR(FCC&IC)
.
YOUR MOBILE DEVICE MEETS FCC AND IC
LIMITS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) adopted by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada (IC). These
limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The highest
SAR values under the FCC and IC guidelines for your device model are listed below:
Head SAR CDMA-LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 0.92 W/kg
Body-worn SAR CDMA 1900, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 0.55 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for your device are usually well below the values
stated. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference
on the network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically decreased
when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the
lower its SAR value.
If you are interested in further reducing your RF exposure then you can easily do so by
limiting your usage or simply using a hands-free kit to keep the device away from the
head and body.
Additional information can be found at www.motorola.com/rfhealth.
