PREVENTION OF HEARING LOSS To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods. EMERGENCY CALL This device can be used for emergency calls in the service area. The connection, however, cannot be guaranteed in all conditions. The device should not be relied on solely for essential communications. CE SAR COMPLIANCE This device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields by way of health protection. The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientific organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. The unit of measurement for the European Councils recommended limit for mobile devices is the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), and the SAR limit is 2.0 W/ kg averaged over 10 gram of tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). 32 For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP exposure guidelines and the European Standard EN 62209-2, for use with dedicated accessories. Use of other accessories which contain metals may not ensure compliance with ICNIRP exposure guidelines. SAR is measured with the device at a separation of 5 mm to the body, while transmitting at the highest certified output power level in all of the devices frequency bands. The highest reported SAR values under the CE regulatory for the phone are listed below:
Head SAR : 1.179 W/kg, Body SAR : 1.362 W/kg, Limbs SAR : 1.624 W/Kg To reduce exposure to RF energy, use a hands-free accessory or other, similar options to keep this device away from your head and body. The device must be carried 5mm from the body to ensure exposure levels remain at or below the as-tested levels. Choose the belt clips, holsters, or other similar body-worn accessories which do not contain metallic components to support operation in this manner. Cases with metal parts may change the RF performance of the device, including its compliance with RF exposure guidelines in a manner that has not been tested or certified. Thus, use of such accessories should be avoided. To reduce the level of exposure to radiation, please do the following:
Use the mobile phone in good reception conditions to reduce the amount of radiation received
(in particular in underground car parks and on train or car journeys). Use a hand free kit For pregnant women, please keep the device away from the stomach Use the device away from genital parts FCC REGULATION This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This mobile phone has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiated radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC NOTE:
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION (SAR) 33 This mobile phone 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 United States. During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and near the body with the separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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. The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.60 W/kg. This mobile phone is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone 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 FCC ID: ZL5BM1S4LE. The highest reported SAR values under the FCC regulatory for the phone are listed below:
Head SAR: 0.513 W/kg, Body SAR: 1.166W/kg, Wireless Router SAR: 1.166W/kg While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements. SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body. RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains metal, was not tested and certified, and as such body-worn accessories should be avoided. DISPOSAL AND RECYCLING INFORMATION This symbol on the device (and any included batteries) indicates that they should not be disposed of as normal household garbage. Do not dispose of the device or batteries as unsorted municipal waste. The device (and any batteries) should be handed over to a certified collection point for recycling or proper disposal at the end of their life.
