THIS NOKIA RM-60 DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits
are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish 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 standards for wireless mobile devices employ a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6
watts/kilogram (W/kg).* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the RCC 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 actual SAR level of an operating device 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 device 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
(for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.24 W/kg,
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.26 W/kg.
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available enhancements 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. The FCC has granted
an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information
on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID QMNRM-60.
