Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission 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 standard for wireless devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the device 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 device while operating can
be well below the maximum value. 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 (e.g., next to the body) as required by the FCC for
each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines.
SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
Display Grant section http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID.
