. 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. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This equipment 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 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. The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirement. The devic e can be used in portable exposure condition without restriction SAR Statement:
This device has been tested and meets applicable limits for radio frequency (RF) exposure. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) refers to the rate at which the body and head absorbs RF energy. The SAR limit is 1.6 watts per kilogram in USA that set the limit averaged over 1 gram of tissue. This device
(FCC ID:2ATYD-1100, ) has been tested against this SAR limit. During testing, the device radios are set to their highest transmission levels and placed in positions that simulate uses against the body and head, with no separation, the highest SAR value reported is 0.276 W / kg. SAR information on this can be viewed on-line at https://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid. Please use the device FCC ID number for search. 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. IC Caution:
