SAR Exposure Information
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
The exposure standard employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit relevant for the application described in the manual is 1.6W/kg. 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 equipment 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.
Equipment Authorization has been granted to this device with the reported SAR level(s) evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this equipment is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on the FCC ID as printed on the equipment.
This device has been tested to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment when used for the documented intended purpose and when operated as shown in the user instructions provided with this product, i.e. when carried with the belt clip coming with the product as a bundled accessory.
