SAFETY SAFETY
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 phone 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 O6Y-CDM7076.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.
phonefacts.net.
* 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.

1. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term ”wireless phone” refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in
antennas, often called ”cell”, ”mobile”, or ”PCS” phones. These types of wireless
phones can expose the user to measurable radiofrequency energy (RF) because
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 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.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is
1.03W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.989W/
Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available 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.
