Important Safety Information
In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phone
used by the public is 1.6 Watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any
variations in usage. Normal condition only to ensure
the radiative performance and safety of the
interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory
operation of the equipment and for the safety of
personnel, it is recommended that no part of the
human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn
operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements,
a minimum separation distance of 1 cm must be
maintained between the user’s body and the handset,
including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters,
and similar accessories used by this device should not
contain any metallic components. Body-worn
accessories that do not meet these requirements may
not comply with RF exposure requirements and should
be avoided.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result
in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a
damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
