RF Exposure Information (SAR)
THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobile devices used by the general public is 2 W/kg and the highest
SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0.41 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a
range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on the body as described in
this user guide. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 1.99 W/kg*.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device’s highest transmitting power, the actual SAR of
this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic
changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to
reach the network.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for safe exposure. The improvements
to this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for later products; in all cases,
products are designed to be within the guidelines.
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate
the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you
want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or using a
‘handsfree’ device to keep the mobile phone away from the head and body.
117
Additional Information can be found on the websites of the World Health Organization
(http://www.who.int/emf).
* The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for testing. The limit incorporates
a substantial margin for safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any 		
variations in measurements. Additional related information includes the ASUS testing protocol, 		
assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product.
FCC Regulations

RF Exposure Information (FCC SAR)
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This phone 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.
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 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone 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 phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to
reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power
output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear
is 0.749 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.904 W/kg (Bodyworn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC
requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this 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 under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: MSQ-1520.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for
use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from
the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If
you do no t use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is switched on.

Safety Information
Phone care
You should never attempt to open the phone casing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside and you
might damage sensitive electronic circuits and components. Unauthorized disassembly will void the warranty.
You should never leave your phone in the window of your car or otherwise expose it to strong sunlight or
excessive heat for a prolonged period. This may damage it.
You should never handle your phone with wet hands or expose it to moisture or liquids of any kind.
Continuous changes from a cold to a warm environment may lead to condensation inside the phone, resulting
in corrosion and possible damage.
If you pack your phone in your suitcase during travel, beware of damage. Cramming a suitcase may crack the
LCD display. Remember to switch off your wireless connections during air travel.
As with all other radio devices, touching the built-in antenna area during telephone conversation may impair the
quality and lead to shorter standby time due to increased power consumption.
The battery
Your device is equipped with a high-performance Li-Ion battery. Optional battery types may be available; check
with your local retailer. Observe the maintenance guidelines and your battery should give you a long service
life.
•	At the beginning of the battery’s life, fully charge and discharge (let it go flat) three times.
•	Do not overcharge the Li-Ion battery, as this can result in a reduction in battery performance and
lifespan. The recommended maximum charge time is three hours.
•	Avoid repeated short charging. It is preferable to let the battery go flat and then recharge it completely.
•	Avoid charging in strong heat or extreme cold. Ambient room temperature is preferable. The battery has
its optimum performance in an ambient temperature of +5 °C to +50 °C.

Driving safety
Never use the handheld devices while driving. It is an offense while driving to hold a phone or cradle it in your
neck, at any point during the setup, making or taking of a phone call, text message or any other data related
mobile communication. Use of fully installed car kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate handsfree
accessories.
In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a cradle while using any form of handsfree accessory.
While driving, we recommend that you use voicemail wherever possible, and that you listen to your messages
when you are not in the car. If you must make a handsfree call when driving, keep it brief.
An airbag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the airbag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
126
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your device.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches
be maintained between a phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.
If you have a pacemaker:
•	Always keep your phone more than six inches from your pacemaker when turned on.
•	Do not carry your phone in a breast pocket.
•	Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
•	If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn off your device immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital devices may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, call ASUS
Customer Service to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Turn off your device in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
127
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Turn off your device where posted notices so require.
Magnetic media
Magnetic fields generated by Pocket PC Phone phones may damage data on magnetic storage media, such as
credit cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your device next to such media.
You should never expose your device to strong magnetic fields as this may cause temporary malfunction.
Other Safety Guidelines
Aircraft
Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your device before boarding an aircraft or turn
