RF Exposure Information (SAR)
• The SAR limit of Europe is 2.0W/kg. The
highest SAR value of this device complies with
this limit. And please see the “Quick Start Guide”
to find the highest SAR value.
• This device was tested for typical operation

FCC Regulatory Conformance
FCC Statement
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
Page 98
Safety information
98
(2) This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for
any radio or TV interference caused by
unauthorized modifications or changes to this
equipment. Such modifications or changes
could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
NOTE: 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 to part
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
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.
Page 99
Safety information
99
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different from that to which the receiver

technician for help.
FCC Caution
• Any changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
• The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must
not be collocated or operate in conjunction with
any other antenna or transmitter.
• The country code selection is for non-US
model only and is not available for all US models.
Per FCC regulation, all Wi-Fi products marketed
in US must be fixed to US operation channels
only.
RF Exposure Information (SAR)
• This device 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.
• The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. The
highest SAR value of this device type complies
with this limit. And please see the “Quick Start
Guide to find the highest SAR value reported
Page 100
Safety information
100
to FCC.
• Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with
the device transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
• Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the device 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.
• While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various devices and at various
positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
• This device has also been tested and meets the
FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and positions
the handset a minimum of 15mm from the body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Position the handset a minimum of 15mm from
your body when the device is switched on.
• Choose the belt clips, holsters, or other similar
body-worn accessories which do not contain
metallic components to support the minimum
distance of body-worn operation. Cases with
