Operating Environment
• The device complies with the RF specifications when the device is used near your
ear or at a distance of 1.0 cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories
such as a device case and a device holster are not composed of metal
components. Keep your device 1.0 cm away from your body to meet the

Certification Information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by
international guidelines, the device is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to
radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to ensure safety for all users,
regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR value
is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the
actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be well below the value. This
is because the device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the
network.
The SAR limit adopted by USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC and IC for this
device type when tested for use at the ear is 1.27 W/kg, and when properly worn on
body is 1.26 W/kg.
