    FCC RF Exposure Information
    WARNING! Read this information before operating the phone.
    In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States, 
    with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard 
    for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by 
    FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard 
    previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone 
    complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.
    Body-worn Operation
    This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 
    0.39 inches (1cm) between the user's body and the back of the phone. To comply with 
    FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1cm) 
    must be maintained between the user's body and the back of the phone. Any belt-clips, 
    holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not be used. 
    Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1cm) separation distance 
    between the user's body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for 
    Safety 
    						
    							93Safety
    typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should 
    be avoided.
    Caution
    Use only the supplied antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas (or modifications to the 
    antenna) could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or violate 
    FCC regulations. 
    Don’t use the phone with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna could cause a 
    minor skin burn. Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.

      Consumer Information About Radio Frequency 
    Emissions
    Your wireless phone, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits radio 
    frequency energy during use. The following consumer information addresses 
    commonly asked questions about the health effects of wireless phones. Are 
    wireless phones safe?
    Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency (“RF”) energy 
    has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United States, the 
    Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission 
    (“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless phones. The FDA issued a website 
    publication on health issues related to cell phone usage where it states,“The scientific 
    community at large …believes that the weight of scientific evidence does not show 
    an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF) from cell phones and adverse 
    health outcomes. Still the scientific community does recommend conducting additional 
    research to address gaps in knowledge. That research is being conducted around the 
    world and FDA continues to monitor developments in this field. You can access the 
    joint FDA/FCC website at http://www.fda.gov (under “c”in the subject index, select Cell 
    Phones > Research). You can also contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) 
    INFO-FDA. In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development 
    agreement through which additional scientific research is being conducted. The FCC  
    						
    							95Safety
    issued its own website publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence that 
    proves that wireless phone usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems, 
    including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.”This publication is available at http://
    www.fcc.gov/cgb/ cellular.html or through the FCC at (888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL-
    FCC.
    What does “SAR” mean?
    In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and 
    other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless phones in the 
    United States. Before a wireless phone model is available for sale to the public, it must 
    be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits 
    established by the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, 
    or “SAR.”SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests for 
    SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest power level in all tested 
    frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of handheld wireless 
    phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue. Although 
    the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless 
    phone while operating can be less than the reported SAR value. This is because the 
    SAR value may vary from call to call, depending on factors such as proximity to a cell 
    site, the proximity of the phone to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free 
    devices. For more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET
    Bulletins 56 and 65 at http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/
    Documents/bulletins or visit the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association 
    website at http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You may also wish 
    to contact the manufacturer of your phone. 
    Can I minimize my RF exposure?
    If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to minimize 
    your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time. You can place more 
    distance between your body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops off 
    dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states that “hands-free kits can be  
    						
    							96Safety
    used with wireless phones for convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the 
    absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the source of the 
    RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the phone is 
    mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of the 
    body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required 
    to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head 
    or against the body. Either configuration should result in compliance with the safety 
    limit.”Also, if you use your wireless phone while in a car, you can use a phone with an 
    antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your wireless 
    phone manufacturer’s instructions for the safe operation of your phone.
    Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children?
    The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a danger to 
    users of wireless communication devices, including children.”The FDA/FCC website 
    further states that “some groups sponsored by other national governments have 
    advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all”. For example, 
    the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”] made such a recommendation in 
    December 2000. In this report a group of independent experts noted that no evidence 
    exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The UK’s] 
    recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was 
    not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet 
    is available at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search “mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB, 
    Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports 
    on mobile phones and RF are available online at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.
    hpa.org.uk/radiation/ (search “mobile”). Parents who wish to reduce their children’s RF 
    exposure may choose to restrict their children’s wireless phone use.

    Consumer Information on SAR
    (Specific Absorption Rate)
    This model phone meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves. 
    Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured 
    not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio Frequency (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 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 for SAR are conducted using standard 
    operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone 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 phone while operating can be 
    well below the maximum value. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple 
    power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, in general, the closer 
    you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone  
    						
    							99Safety
    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. 
    The highest SAR values are:
    • Head: 1.08 W/kg
    • Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.03 W/kg
    (Body measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available 
    accessories and FCC requirements).
    While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various 
    positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has 
    granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels 
    evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on 
    this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant 
    section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID ZNFH811.
    Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular 
    Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/. 
    *  In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public 
    is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a 
    substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account 
    for any variations in measurements.
