CE statement This device has been tested and found to comply with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the applicable EU Directives. NOTE: The Sparkvue application software holds the data transmission during the ESD testing, it can be functionally operated by simply clicking
"Start" on Sparkvue, which is considered normal operating practice in the user manual. FCC statement This device 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. Note 1: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate 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. NOTE 2: Any changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the Product Guide | 012-17261A party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. NOTE 3: Operation in the band 51505250 MHz is only for indoor use to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems. RF exposure information and statement . this device meets government requirements for exposure to radio waves. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons regardless of age or health. The SAR limit of USA(FCC) is 1.6W/Kg averaged. Has also been tested against this SAR limit. SAR information on this and other pad can be viewed on-line at www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. Please use the device FCC ID number for search. This device was tested simulation typical 0 mm to body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, 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. ISED Canada compliance statement This device complies with ISED Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two 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.

RF exposure information and statement . this equipment complies with IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations 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 or health. The SAR limit of IC is 1.6W/Kg averaged. Device types: Has also been tested against this SAR limit. This device was tested simulation typical 0 mm to body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, 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. The highest reported SAR value for body conditions is 1.201W/Kg respectively. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR dISDE Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Lexploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) lappareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) lappareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible den compromettre le fonctionnement. La bande 51505250 MHz est rserve uniquement pour une utilisation lintrieur afin de rduire les risques de brouillage prjudiciable aux systmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mmes canaux. Cet quipement est conforme aux limites dexposition au rayonnement du CNR-
102 de lIC tablies pour un environnement non contrl. Les lignes directrices sont fondes sur des normes qui ont t labores par des organisations scientifiques indpendantes au moyen dune valuation priodique et approfondie des tudes scientifiques. Les normes comprennent une marge de scurit substantielle conue pour assurer la scurit de toutes les personnes, indpendamment de leur ge ou de leur tat de sant. La limite SAR de CI est de 1.6 W/Kg en moyenne. a galement t test par rapport cette limite SAR. Cet appareil a t test simulation typique 0 mm au corps. Pour maintenir la conformit aux exigences dexposition aux RF de la FCC, lutilisation de pinces courroie, dtuis et daccessoires similaires ne devrait pas contenir de composants mtalliques dans son assemblage, lutilisation daccessoires qui ne satisfont pas ces exigences peut ne pas tre conforme aux exigences dexposition aux RF de la FCC et devrait tre vite. La valeur SAR dclare la plus leve pour les conditions corporelles est de 1,201 W / Kg respectivement. 3
