FCC RF Exposure Information
Your handset is a radio transmitter and receiver.
It 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 guidelines are based on standards that were developed
by independent scientific organisations through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless handsets employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6
W/k g .
Abridged English Manual
19
19-13
The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at
the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for
each model. The highest SAR value for this model handset
when tested for use at the ear is
on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.489
Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical
body-worn operations with the back of the handset kept
1.5
cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC
RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain
a 1.5
cm separation distance between the user's body and
the back of the handset. The use of beltclips, 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
Abridged English Manual
requirements, and should be avoided.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorisation for this
model handset with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR
information on this model handset is on file with the FCC
and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
APYHRO00059.

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, regardless of age
and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile
devices is 2
device when tested at the ear was 1.215
devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in
other positions, such as on the body as described in this
user guide**. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is
0.981
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest
transmitting power the actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that indicated above. This is
due to automatic changes to the power level of the device
to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach
the Network.
The World Health Organization has stated that present
scientific information does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They
note that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can
do so by limiting the length of calls or using a hands-free
device to keep the mobile phone away from the head and
body.

guidelines for testing.
