THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S RE-
QUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Fed-
eral Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and estab-
lish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
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 and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
*
Tests for
SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the
SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the ac-
tual SAR level of the phone 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.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not ex-
ceed the limit established by the government-adopted require-
ment for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as re-
quired by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for
this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.48 W/kg
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide,
is 1.22 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC re-
quirements). While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in com-
pliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR informa-
tion on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of

after searching on FCC ID CJ6DCE42903A.

ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.

In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-
stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
