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 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.

RF Exposure Information
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
Safety & Precaution 26
energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the United States, Industry Canada of Canada.
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,
and 1.6W/kg by Industry Canada.
This device is complied with SAR for general population
/uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992
and Canada RSS 102, and had been tested in accordance
with the measurement methods and procedures specified
in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, and Canada RSS 102.
This device has been tested, and meets the FCC, IC 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:
WVBA9781.
Safety & Precaution 27
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage
against the head is 1.50 W/kg, for usage near the body is
1.48W/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.
