FCC Regulations:
This mobile phone complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This mobile phone has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
24
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiated radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct 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 help.
FCC Note:
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to
operate the equipment.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)
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 United States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in
positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with
no separation, and near the body with the separation of 10 mm.
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. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as 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.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of
measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general population
/uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had
been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and
procedures specified in IEEE1528. This device has been tested and
meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when tested with the device
directly contacted to the body.
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 www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC
ID: YHLBLUPUREXL.
26
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against
the head is 0.79 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.28 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation
distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this
device at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure
level compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn
operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain
metallic components, to maintain a separation of 10 mm between
this device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which
contains metal, was not tested and certified, and use such
body-worn accessory should be avoided.
