RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This model device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio
Federal Communication Commission Interference
waves.
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 U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices 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 device 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 device 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 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 device as reported to the FCC when
tested for use when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.232 W/kg
(Body-worn measurements differ among device models, depending upon available
enhancements and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
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 http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching
on FCC ID: PZWBHT710BWB.
For body worn operation, this device 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 device at the ear,
position the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the device is
switched on.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B conforme á la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2)this device must accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the device.
For WLAN 2.4G device available in the USA/Canada market, only channel 1~11 can
be operated. Selection of other channels is not possible.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operation in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter which is not certified together with this device.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain
should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropic radiated power (e.i.r.p) is not more
than that permitted for successful communication.
The device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only for indoor usage to reduce potential
for harmful interference to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
