Health and safety information Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals Certification Information (SAR) Your wireless tablet is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. government.
it should provide values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular tablet. Additional product specific SAR information can also be obtained at www.fcc.gov/cgb/sar. Consumer Information on Wireless Tablets The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a series of Questions and Answers for consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) exposure from wireless tablets.
•”Design wireless tablets in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device function; and •”Cooperate in providing users of wireless tablets with the best possible information on possible effects of wireless tablet use on human health. FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level.
the existence of any harmful health effects from wireless tablets RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term exposures, since the average period of tablet use in these studies was around three years. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless tablets poses a health risk? A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless tablets would provide some of the data that are needed.
Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless tablet will reduce RF exposure. •”If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless tablet every day, you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless tablet away from your body or use a wireless tablet connected to a remote antenna.
advertised. Unlike ¡°hand-free¡± kits, these so-called ¡°shields¡± may interfere with proper operation of the tablet. The tablet may be forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption. In February 2002, the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold devices that claimed to protect wireless tablet users from radiation with making false and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.

Product Performance Getting the Most Out of Your Signal Reception The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area. Your tablet informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you¡¯re inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.
