to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If you experience interference with reception (e.g., television), determine if this equipment is
causing the harmful interference by turning the equipment off and then back on to see if the interference
is affected.
If necessary, try correcting the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for further assistance.
Consumer Information on SAR
This Model Tablet Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your wireless
tablet 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 (FCC)
of the U.S. Government. These FCC exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert
organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by
scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive
reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy. The exposure limit for
wireless tablets employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or 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 tablets to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per
kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the tablet transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the tablet while operating can be well below the maximum value. Because
the tablet is designed to operate at multiple power levels to use only the power required to reach the
network, generally, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a tablet 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. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the tablet
kept 0 inches (0 cm) between the user’s body and the back of the tablet. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0 inches (0 cm) must be maintained between
the user's body and the back of the tablet. Third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar accessories
containing metallic components should not be used.
Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0 inches (0 cm) separation distance between the user's body
and the back of the tablet, and have not been tested for typical body-worn operations may not comply
with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model tablet with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines.
