6.2 IC certification
The SPBTLE-1S module has been tested and found compliant with the IC RSS-210 rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
approved installations. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference may not occur in a particular installation.
This device complies with RSS-210 of the IC rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. this device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Modifications or changes to this equipment not expressly approved by STMicroelectronics
may render void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
Modular approval
IC: 8976C-SPBTLE1S
In accordance with IC RSS-210, the SPBTLE-1S is listed as a modular transmitter device.
This module is evaluated for stand-alone use only. Finished products incorporating multiple
transmitters must comply with colocation and RF exposure requirements in accordance with
IC multi-transmitter product procedures. Collocated transmitters operating in portable RF
Exposure conditions (e.g. <20cm from persons including but not limited to body worn and
hand held devices) may require separate approval.
6.2.1 Labeling instructions
When integrating the SPBTLE-1S into the final product, the OEM must ensure that the IC
labeling requirements are satisfied. A statement must be included on the exterior of the
final product which indicates that the product includes a certified module. The label should
state the following (or similar wording that conveys the same meaning):
Contains IC: 8976C-SPBTLE1S
OR
This product contains IC: 8976C-SPBTLE1S
The OEM must include the following statements on the exterior of the final product unless
the product is too small (e.g. less than 4 x 4 inches):
This device complies with RSS-210 of the IC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. this device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference received,
including any interference that may cause
undesired operation.
