In most countries, using this product on board an airplane is against the law.SAFETY FOR ENVIRONMENTSDo not use this product in gas stations. Also the use of this product is prohibited in fuel storehouse, chemical plants and locations containing explosives.SAFETY ON THE ROADVehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use telephony services with the handheld device, except in the case of emergency. In some countries, using hand-free devices as an alternative is allowed.SAFETY ABOUT RADIATIONThis product should be operated in the suggested normal condition only to ensure the radiative performance and safety of the interference.SAFETY FOR MEDICAL EQUIPMENTSThis product may cause malfunctions of medical equipments. In most hospital or medical centers, the use of this product is forbidden.Attention• There are no user serviceable parts inside this product. If this product appears to be broken, call a qualified service personnel or send this product to your original dealer. Do not attempt to disassemble or repair this product as it may result in electric shock or unrecoverable damage to the product itself.• Keep this product out of reach of small children.• Remove this product from your handheld device when not in use. Store this product in its protective case in a cool dry place.
iii• The antenna of this product is not removable. Do not try to detach the antenna from the product.• Avoid touching the antenna while in use, otherwise it may cause adverse effect to signal reception.FCC Compliance StatementThis device 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.Statement according FCC part 15.21Modifications not expressly approved by CMCS could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.Statement according FCC part 15.105NOTE: This equipment 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 resi-dential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio fre-quency 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 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 the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operation 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 gen-
iveral, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and cer-tified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the govern-ment-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. (Body-worn measurements may differ among phone mod-els, depending upon available accessories 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 for safe exposure. For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, use only CMCS approved accessories. When carrying the phone while it is on, use the specific CMCS-supplied or approved carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory.Use of non-CMCS-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guide-lines and should be avoided.Health and Safety InformationEXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) SIGNALSYour wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manu-factured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Govern-ment. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies: * American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992* National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986* International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996* Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a substan-tial 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 measure-ment known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg *.* In the U.S. 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 mar-gin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in.
vStatement for OEMsSeparate approval is required for operations with respect to 2.1093 as a portabletransmitter.This device is approved as a module to be installed in other devices. Each OEMmust obtain their own Certification for each device containing this module. Thisincludes measurements to satisfy RF exposure requirements.
