IMPORTANT: Changes or modifications to this product not author-

ized could void the EMC and wireless compliance and negate your

authority to operate the product. This product has demonstrated

EMC compliance under conditions that included the use of com-

pliant peripheral devices and shielded cables

between system components. It is important that you use compli-

ant peripheral devices and shielded cables between system com-

ponents to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios,

televisions, and other electronic devices.

Certification information (SAR)

The device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Your

device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to

exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by

international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the

independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety

margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regard-

less of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for devices employ a unit of measure-

ment known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit

Compliance with International Standards 97

stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) aver-

aged over 10 grams of tissue. 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 ac-

tual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum

value because the device is designed to use only the power

required to reach the network.

This equipment complies with the European Council Recommen-

dation of 12 July 1999 on the Limitation of Exposure of the Gen-

eral Public to Electromagnetic Fields [1999/519/EC].
