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 device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of  the FCC  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
37 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. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
38 FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR) This device 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 is 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 and near the body. Although the  SAR is  determined at  the highest certified  power level, the  actual  SAR level of the  while operating can be well below the maximum value.   This is because the device 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 employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.   The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.     The  FCC  has  granted  an  Equipment  Authorization  for  this  model  device  with  all  reported  SAR  levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.   SAR information on this model device 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: YHLBLUSTUDIO7II.  For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 0.44 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.18 W/kg.
39 While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
