Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual 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 exceed the
limit established by the government-adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model.
Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon availability of accessories and FCC
requirements. 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 compliance
with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
Display Grant section
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea
after searching on
the FCC ID: OVF-K33BIC05 (non-Bluetooth) or OVF-K33BIC06
(Bluetooth).
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications and Internet Association (CTIA) web-site at
www.ctia.org
.
* 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 substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
Caution
The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the warranty and user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

Air Bags
If you have an air bag, DO NOT place installed or portable
phone equipment or other objects over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. If equipment is not properly installed, you
and your passengers risk serious injury.
Medical devices
Pacemakers
—Warning to pacemaker wearers: Wireless
phones, when in the ‘on’ position, have been shown to interfere
with pacemakers. The phone should be kept at least six (6)
inches away from the pacemaker to reduce risk.
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association and the wireless
technology research community recommend that you follow
these guidelines to minimize the potential for interference.
• Always keep the phone at least six inches (15 centimeters)
away from your pacemaker when the phone is turned on.
• Do not carry your phone near your heart.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn off your phone immediately.
Hearing aids
—Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to
consult your service provider or call the customer service line to
discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
—If you use any other personal medical
device, consult the manufacturer of the device to determine if it
is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to help you obtain this information.
In health care facilities
—Turn your phone off in health care
facilities when instructed. Hospitals and health care facilities
may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
