THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE
GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Yourwireless phone is a radio trans-
mitterand receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emis-
sion limits forexposure to radiofre-
quency (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 ener-
gy forthe general population. The
guidelines are based on standards
that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through peri-
odic and thorough evaluation of scien-
tific studies.The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons,re-
gardless of age and health.
The exposure standard forwireless
mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate,or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*
Tests forSAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted
by the FCC with the phone transmit-
ting at its highest certified powerlevel
in all tested frequency bands.Al-
though the SAR is determined at
the highest certified powerlevel, the
actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the
maximum value.This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multi-
ple powerlevels so as to use only the
powerrequired to reach the network.
In general,the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna,the
lowerthe power output of the mobile
phone.
Before a phone 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
forsafe exposure.The tests are per-
formed in positions and locations
(e.g.,at the ear and worn on the
body) to determine SAR compliance
forthe particular device at a range of
potential operating positions.The
highest SAR value forthis model
phone when tested foruse at the ear
is 0.33 W/kg and when worn on the
body in accordance with instructions
in this userguide is 1.54 W/kg.(Body-
worn measurements differamong
phone models,depending upon avail-
able accessories).While there may be
differences between the SAR levels
of various phones and at various posi-
tions,they all meet the government
requirement forRF exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization forthis model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated
as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.SAR information
on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found underthe
Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID NRR-S4X.

Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found

NOTE:
* In the United States and Canada,the SAR
limit formobile phones used by the public is
1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged overone gram
of tissue.The standard incorporates a sub-
stantial margin of safety to give additional
protection forthe public and to account for
any variations in measurements.
