Rev.1.0 Health and safety information Exposureto Radio Frequency (RF) Signals Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. government. These FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Counsel on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the engineering experts drawn from industry, government, The exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR tests are conducted using recommended operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined of the device 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. Before a new model device is available for sale to the it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model are performed in positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required by the FCC. Operating Environment Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch your device forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger. When connecting the device or any accessory to another device, read its users guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products. For typical operations, this model has been tested and meets the FCC exposure guidelines. SAR information on this and other models can be viewed on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/
fccid/. This site uses the FCC ID number A3LSMT113. You can check the FCC ID on the rear case. Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular device, follow the instructions on the website and it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular device SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/
cgb/sar. 48 FCC Notice and Cautions FCC Notice This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
