• RADIO WAVES
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
9
Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio
frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international
guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent
scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health. The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit for mobile devices is 10 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the
ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it
was recorded:
MPH-MB001A (Body-worn) 0.871 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well
below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of
system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network,
the operating power of your device is automatically decreased
when full power is not needed. The lower the power output of the
device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation
distance of 0 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-
worn operation, the device should be positioned at least this
distance away from the body.
If you are not using an approved accessory, ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the device
the indicated distance away from the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US
Food and Drug Administration have suggested that if people are
concerned and want to reduce their exposure they could use a
10
hands-free accessory to keep the wireless device away from the
body during use, or reduce the amount of time spent on the device.
FCC Regulations:
This tablet 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.
This tablet 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.
FCC Note:
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user‘s authority to
operate the equipment.
11
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 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: ZBW-MPHMB001A.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage near the
body is 1.19 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
devices and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
