RF Exposure
General Statement on RF Energy
Your mobile device contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your device, the system handling your call controls the power level at which your device transmits.
Page 16
16
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile 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, regardless of age and heal th.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device was 0.85 W/kg. 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 power required to communicate with the network.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with EN 62311, IEC 62209-2.
Body-worn Operation
Important safety information regarding radio frequency radiation (RF)
Page 17
17
exposure: Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure
exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organization (W HO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of wireless data transmission
. Further information on this subject can be obtained online from the WHO
fact sheet N°193 at http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/en/

Regulatory Information
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as noted. Please find the Declaration of RoHS Compliance, and EC Declaration of
Conformity in Appendix.
Distraction
Driving
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a mobile device while driving (even with a hands free kit) can cause distraction and lead to an acciden t. You must comply with local laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.

They could hurt themselves or othe rs, or could accidentally damage the
Page 21
21
device. Your mobile device contains small parts with sharp edges that may cause
an injury or may become detached and create a choking hazard.
Demagnetization

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Do not touch the SIM card’s metal connectors.
Air Bags
Do not place the device in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
Store the device safely before driving your vehicle.
Page 22
22
Seizures/Blackouts
The device can produce a bright or flashing light.
Repetitive Motion Injuries
To minimize the risk of RSI when texting or playing games with your device:
Do not grip the device too tightly.
Press the buttons lightly.
Use the special features which are designed to minimize the times of
pressing buttons, such as Message Templates and Predictive Text.
Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax.
Loud Noise
This mobile device is capable of producing loud noises, which may
Page 23
23
damage your hearing. Turn down the volume befor e using headTablets, Bluetooth stereo headsets or other audio devices.
Device Heating
Your device may become warm during charging and during normal use.
Electrical Safety
Accessories
Use only approved accessories. Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories. Take care not to touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or key rings,
to contact or short-circuit the battery terminals.
Connection to a Car

Page 24
24
the vehicle electrical system.
Faulty and Damaged Produc ts
Do not attempt to disassemble the device or its accessory. Only qualified personnel should service or repair the device or its
accessory. If your device or its accessory has been submerged in water, punctured,
or subjected to a severe fall, do not use i t until you have taken it to be checked at an authorized service center.
Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using the mobile device in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Page 25
25
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the mobile device on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference source, increasing the separ ation between them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Medical Devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if
Page 26
26
operation of your mobile device may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Interference in Cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
Page 27
27
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile Tablets in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the installation.
Explosive Environments
Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your Tablet or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile Tablet or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted power off “two -way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
Page 28
28
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This device meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves.
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. Go vernment.
The exposure standard for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC wi th 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 Tablet 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 poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to the antenna, the lower the power output.
Page 29
29
The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when tested for body, as described in this user guide, is 0.938W/kg for CDMA 850 band.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various Tablets and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device 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: Q78 -V11A.
For body operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use the positions the device a minimum of 0 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compli ance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
