For Your Safety
For Your Safety
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 LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 1.43 W/kg
Body-worn SAR CDMA 800 MHz, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 0.34 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.
