Memory card tray Front camera Volume key Side key Fingerprint recognition sensor Multipurpose jack (USB Type-C) Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information Your device conforms to U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level
(known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 1.6 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the device has been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your device reduces your overall exposure to RF energy. 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. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device based on the compliance of all reported SAR levels with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. Some devices are required to receive approval from the FCC. If your device required FCC approval, you can view the FCC certification by opening Settings About phone Status or Status information. SAR information for this and other devices can be found on the FCC website at: www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/. Follow the instructions on the website to use the FCC ID to find SAR values for the device.
