The FCC requires that devices operating within 5.155.25 GHz may only be used indoors, not outside, in order to avoid interference with Mobile Satellite Services (MSS). Therefore, this device is restricted from being used outdoors when operating in frequencies between 5.155.25 GHz.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the following information: Do cell phones pose a health hazard? Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause cancer or other serious health hazards.
Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 8 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not be confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic energy. Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal locations in atoms and molecules.
Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 9 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between RF and certain health problems? The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition, attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have shown a connection have failed.

However, the authors determined that biases and errors prevented any conclusions being drawn from this data. Additional information about Interphone can be found at http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2010/pdfs/ pr200_E.pdf. Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not answer all questions about cell phone safety.

Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 13 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM take a few simple steps to minimize your RF exposure. ● Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone; ● Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your head and the cell phone. Hands-Free Kits Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and various types of body-worn accessories such as belt-clips and holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy absorption from cell phones.
Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 14 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF Radiation forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption. Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks.
Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 15 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM discouraged from using cell phones at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report, a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.

Sprint_LT02_IIB_.book Page 17 Thursday, August 15, 2013 4:01 PM The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
