1 Safety

1.1 Safety Precautions

Please read these precautions carefully and follow
them to prevent danger or the violation of laws.

• Your mobile phone device complies with applicable

safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Radio
wave exposure guidelines employ a unit called Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) measured in Watts per Kilogram
averaged over a 6-minute period and taken over a vol­ume containing a 1 gram mass of human tissue. The
recommended SAR limit for a mobile handset is 1.6
W/Kg. Use your phone when the signal strength is
good. Keep your calls short or, instead, use a headset
or send a text message. This advice applies especially
to children, adolescents, and pregnant women.

5.2 SAR Notice

THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy.

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. These guidelines include a substantial safety
margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or
SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities such as the
Federal Communications Commission of the US
Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg
averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the
cellphone 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 cellphone while
operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the cellphone 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 of the
cellphone.

Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with national regulations and standards must

be shown.
The SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one
gram of tissue. Device
types One V3001 (FCC ID: 2AA9WV3001) has also been
tested against this SAR limit.
The highest SAR value reported under this standard during

R.55 Phone Us er M anu al

-23-

product certification for use when properly worn on the body
is 1.050 W/kg and for head is 0.542 W/kg. Simultaneous RF
exposure is 1.171W/Kg.
. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations
with the back of the handset kept 10mm from the body.
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements,
use accessories that maintain a 10mm separation distance
between the user's body and the back of the
handset. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories
should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The
use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may
not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should
be avoided.

If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever

product is used is free of any metal and that it positions

the cellphone at least 10 mm away from the body

5.3 Industry Canada Notice

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter

may only operate using an antenna of a type and

maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by

Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to

other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so

chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power

(e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful

communication.

Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le

présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une

antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur)

approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le

but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à

l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type

d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope

rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité

nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication

satisfaisante.

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt

RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two

R.55 Phone Us er M anu al

-24-

conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and

(2) this device must accept any interference, including

interference that may cause undesired operation of the

device.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie

Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.

L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:

(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2)

l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage

radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible

d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
