FCC RF Exposure Information

WARNING! Read this information before operating the phone.

In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States, with its

action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure

to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those

guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international

standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international

standards.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical use with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) from

the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39

inches (1.0 cm) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone. Any belt-

clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not be used. Avoid the

use of accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) distance between the user’s body and

the back of the phone and have not been tested for compliance with FCC RF exposure limits.

Caution

Use only the supplied antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas (or modifications to the antenna)

could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or violate FCC regulations.

Don’t use the phone with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna could cause a minor skin burn.

Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.

Consumer Information About Radio Frequency Emissions

Your wireless phone, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits radio frequency energy

during use. The following consumer information addresses commonly asked questions about the

health effects of wireless phones.

Are wireless phones safe?

Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency (“RF”) energy has been

conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United States, the Food and Drug

Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) set policies and

procedures for wireless phones. The FDA issued a website publication on health issues related to cell

phone usage where it states, “The scientific community at large … believes that the weight of scientific

evidence does not show an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF) from cell phones

and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community does recommend conducting additional

research to address gaps in knowledge. That research is being conducted around the world and FDA

continues to monitor developments in this field. You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at http://

www.fda.gov (under “c”in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research). You can also contact

the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA. In June 2000, the FDA entered into a

cooperative research and development agreement through which additional scientific research is being

conducted. The FCC issued its own website publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence

that proves that wireless phone usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems, including

headaches, dizziness or memory loss.” This publication is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/ cellular.

html or through the FCC at (888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.

What does “SAR” mean?

In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other

agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless phones in the United States. Before

a wireless phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested by the manufacturer

and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits is

expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF

energy in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest power

level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of handheld

wireless phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue.

Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless

phone while operating can be less than the reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value

may vary from call to call, depending on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity

of the phone to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free devices. For more information

about SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65 at http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_

Technology/Documents/bulletins or visit the Cellular Telecom munications Industry Association

website at http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You may also wish to contact

the manufacturer of your phone.

Can I minimize my RF exposure?

If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to minimize your RF

exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time. You can place more distance between your

body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/

FCC website states that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and

comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone, which

is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the

phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of the

body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety

requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either

configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you use your wireless phone

while in a car, you can use a phone with an antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should also

read and follow your wireless phone manufacturer’s instructions for the safe operation of your

phone.

Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children?

The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of

wireless communication devices, including children.” The FDA/FCC website further states that “some

groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from

using wireless phones at all”. For example, the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”]

made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a group of independent experts

noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The

UK’s] recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not

based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet is available at

http://www.dh.gov.uk (search “mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ,

United Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports on mobile phones and RF are available online

at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/ (search “mobile”). Parents who wish to

reduce their children’s RF exposure may choose to restrict their children’s wireless phone use.

Consumer Information on SAR

(Specific Absorption Rate)

This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless

phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It 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. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish

permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that

were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of

scientific studies. The standards include a substantial 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 measurement known as the

Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. 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 SAR is determined at the

highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below

the maximum value. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC

that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-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.

The highest SAR values are:

• Head: 0.97 W/kg

• Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.03 W/kg

(Body measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC

requirements).

While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they

all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels

evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model

phone 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 ZNFK330. Additional information on Specific Absorption

Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website

at http://www.ctia.org/.

* In the United States 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

margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in

measurements.

FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices

On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT

Docket 01-309 modified the exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act

of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be compatible with hearing-aids. The intent

of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons with

hearing disabilities.

While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear

implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more

immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of interference

they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing

device users to find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have

been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on the box.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing

loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a

rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate

it for your personal needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less

interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two

ratings.

T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less

interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two

ratings.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional

may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively immune to

interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then added together. A sum

of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for best use.

In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets the

M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with

“normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in

this context is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation.

The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be

synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for

Telecommunications Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section

20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

To ensure that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone is maintained, secondary

transmitters such as Bluetooth® and WLAN components must be disabled during a call.

hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as portable

music players and cellular telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to

permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets,

earbuds and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been

associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound and

distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other potential hearing

problems varies.

The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the

sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones. You should follow some commonsense

recommendations when using any portable audio device:

• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which you can hear

adequately.

• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking near you

or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.

• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your

portable device in a noisy environment, use noise-cancelling headphones to block out background

environmental noise.

• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is required before your

hearing could be affected.

• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as rock concerts, that

might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to

sound normal.

• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears,

hear muffled speech or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your

portable audio device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

TIA Safety Information

The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal

Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When ON, it

receives and sends out Radio Frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines

with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety

standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)

ICNIRP (1996)

* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and

Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific

literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government

health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard

(C95.1).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,

or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently:

Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects

call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic

equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six

(6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential

interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent

research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone

is turned ON;

• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;

• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is

taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such

interference, you may want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to

discuss alternatives).

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine

if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in

obtaining this information.

Health Care Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct

you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment that could be sensitive to

external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor

vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also

consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding

an aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in

areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs

and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or

even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always marked clearly. Potential

areas may include: fueling areas (such as gasoline stations); below deck on boats; fuel or chemical

transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane);

areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders); and any

other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable

wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle

wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

Part 15.19 statement

This 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.

Part 15.21 statement

Changes or modifications that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer for compliance could

void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Part 15.105 statement

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 residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate 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.

FDA Consumer Update

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health

Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:

1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using

wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless

phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy in the microwave range while being used.

They also emit very low levels of RF when in standby mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce

health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects

causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found

any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur, but

such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have

had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.

2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?

Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such

as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However,

the agency has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit Radio Frequency

(RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, the FDA could require the

manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or recall

the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.

Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the

wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:

• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless

phones;

• Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary

for device function; and

• Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible

effects of wireless phone use on human health.

The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility

for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following

agencies belong to this working group:

• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health

• Environmental Protection Agency

• Occupational Safety and Health Administration

• National Telecommunications and Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities, as well.

The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety

guidelines that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety

questions about wireless phones.

The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these

base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures

that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can

get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed

in this document.

3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?

The term “wireless phone”refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas, often

called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS”phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to

measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance between the phone and the

user’s head.

These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of the

FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater distances

from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure decreases

rapidly with increasing distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,”which have a base

unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far lower power levels, and

thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.

4. What are the results of the research done already?

The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered from

flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of Radio Frequency

(RF) energy exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often

cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low

levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However, many of

the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had been genetically

engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to develop cancer

in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per

day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones,

so we do not know with certainty what the results of such studies mean for human health. Three

large epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000. Between them, the studies

investigated any possible association between the use of wireless phones and primary brain cancer,

glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other

cancers. None of the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from

wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term

exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies was around three years.

5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health

risk?

A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless

phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could

be completed in a few years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide

reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data

that is directly applicable to human populations, but ten or more years follow-up may be needed

to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval between

the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors develop — if they do — may

be many, many years. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in

measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this

measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?

The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators

around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies are conducted to address important

questions about the effects of exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy.

The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International Electro

Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has

been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment

of new research programs around the world. The project has also helped develop a series of public

information documents on EMF issues.

The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal

Cooperative Research And Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone

safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,

industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts with

independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of

wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs

in the context of the latest research developments around the world.

7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless

phone?

All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC)

guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these guidelines

in consultation with the FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF

exposure from wireless phones is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram

(1.6 W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute of

Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation Protection and

Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability to remove heat from

the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is set well below levels known to have

effects. Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF exposure level for each model of

phone to the FCC. The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives directions for locating

the FCC identification number on your phone so you can find your phone’s RF exposure level in the

online listing.

8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming from wireless phones?

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for

measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from wireless phones and other wireless

handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard,

“Recommended Practice for Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in

the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth

the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the

heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human

head. Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency of

measurements made at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the measurement of the

amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the body. It is

measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine whether a

wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy from my wireless phone?

If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that there is — it is

probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few

simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a key factor

in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone

will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day,

you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level

drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless

phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna. Again, the

scientific data does not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned

about the RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those described above to

reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

10. What about children using wireless phones?

The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children

and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the

measures described above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing

the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will

reduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged

from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed

leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists

that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit

wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence

that any health hazard exists.

11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?

Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices.

For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic

Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones.

This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement

of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device

manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow

manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone

EMI.

The FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped develop

a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This

standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless

phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a “compatible” phone and a “compatible”

hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.

The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other

medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to

assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive and

always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please observe the following:

• Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility;

• Use hands-free operation, if available;

• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law

require it.

10 Driver Safety Tips

Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate by voice almost anywhere,

anytime. An important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that every

user must uphold.

When operating a car, driving is your first responsibility. When using your wireless phone behind the

wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:

1 Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your

instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including

automatic redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial

function without taking your attention off the road.

2 When available, use a hands-free device. A number of hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily

available today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for your wireless phone or a speaker

phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you.

3 Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can reach it without

removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let

your voicemail answer it for you.

4 Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let the person you are

speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather

conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first

responsibility is to pay attention to the road.

5 Don’t take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are reading an address book or

business card, or writing a “to-do” list while driving a car, you are not watching where you are going. It

is common sense. Do not get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and

not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.

6 Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling

into traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times

you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light, or otherwise stationary. But if you need to dial while

driving, follow this simple tip -- dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.

7 Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional

conversations and driving do not mix; they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind

the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary, suspend

conversations which have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

8 Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the greatest tools you can own

to protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations -- with your phone at your side, help is only

three numbers away. Dial 911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road

hazard, or medical emergency. Remember, it’s a free call on your wireless phone!

9 Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a perfect

opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress

or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency number, as you

would want others to do for you.

10 Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number when necessary.

Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention, but are not urgent enough to

merit a call for emergency services. But you can still use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see

a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where

no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special

non-emergency wireless number.

The above tips are meant as general guidelines. Before deciding to use your mobile device while operating

a vehicle, it is recommended that you consult your applicable jurisdiction’s local laws or other regulations

regarding such use. Such laws or other regulations may prohibit or otherwise restrict the manner in

which a driver may use his or her phone while operating a vehicle.

Anti-Theft Guide

You can set up your device to prevent other people from using it if it’s been reset to factory

settings without your permission. For example, if your device is lost, stolen, or wiped, only someone

with your Google account or screen lock information can use the device.

All you need to make sure your device is protected is:

• Set a screen lock: If your device is lost or stolen but you have a screen lock set, the device can’t

be erased using the Settings menu unless your screen is unlocked.

Limited Warranty Statement

ARBITRATION NOTICE: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT REQUIRES YOU AND LG TO

RESOLVE DISPUTES BY BINDING ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF IN COURT, UNLESS YOU CHOOSE TO OPT OUT. IN ARBITRATION, CLASS

ACTIONS AND JURY TRIALS ARE NOT PERMITTED. PLEASE SEE THE SECTION TITLED “PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES”

BELOW.

Warranty Laws

The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of consumer goods:

• The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC §§1790 et seq],

• The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C §§2101 et seq], and

• The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act [15 USC §§2301 et seq; 16 CFR Parts

701– 703]. A typical Magnuson-Moss Act warranty is a written promise that the product is free of defects or a written promise

to refund, repair, or replace defective goods. [See 15 USC §2301(6).] Remedies include damages for failing to honor a written

warranty or service contract or for violating disclosure provisions. [See 15 USC §2310(d).] Except for some labeling and disclosure

requirements, the federal Act does not preempt state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]

1. WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS:

LG offers you a limited warranty that the enclosed subscriber unit and its enclosed accessories will be free from defects in material

and workmanship, according to the following terms and conditions:

(1) The limited warranty for the product extends for TWELVE (12) MONTHS beginning on the date of purchase of the product with

valid proof of purchase, or absent valid proof of purchase, FIFTEEN (15) MONTHS from date of manufacture as determined by the

unit’s manufacture date code.

(2) The limited warranty extends only to the original purchaser of the product and is not assignable or transferable to any subsequent

purchaser/end user.

(3) This warranty is good only to the original purchaser of the product during the warranty period as long as it is in the U.S., including

Alaska, Hawaii, U.S. Territories and Canada.

(4) The external housing and cosmetic parts shall be free of defects at the time of shipment and, therefore, shall not be covered under

these limited warranty terms.

(5) Upon request from LG, the consumer must provide information to reasonably prove the date of purchase.

(6) The customer shall bear the cost of shipping the product to the Customer Service Department of LG. LG shall bear the cost of

shipping the product back to the consumer after the completion of service under this limited warranty.

2. WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:

(1) Defects or damages resulting from use of the product in other than its normal and customary manner.

(2) Defects or damages from abnormal use, abnormal conditions, improper storage, exposure to moisture or dampness, unauthorized

modications,unauthorizedconnections,unauthorizedrepair,misuse,neglect,abuse,accident,alteration,improperinstallation,or

other acts which are not the fault of LG, including damage caused by shipping, blown fuses, spills of food or liquid.

(3) Breakage or damage to antennas unless caused directly by defects in material or workmanship.

(9) Products operated outside published maximum ratings.

(10) Products used or obtained in a rental program.

(11) Consumables (such as fuses).

3. WHAT LG WILL DO:

LG will, at its sole option, either repair, replace or refund the purchase price of any unit that is covered under this limited warranty. LG

may choose at its option to use functionally equivalent re-conditioned, refurbished or new units or parts or any units. In addition, LG

will not re-install or back-up any data, applications or software that you have added to your phone. It is therefore recommended that

you back-up any such data or information prior to sending the unit to LG to avoid the permanent loss of such information.

4. STATE LAW RIGHTS:

No other express warranty is applicable to this product. THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED

WARRANTY OF MARKETABILITY OR MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION

OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY HEREIN. LG SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE LOSS OF THE USE OF THE PRODUCT, INCONVENIENCE,

LOSS OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES, DIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL, ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIS PRODUCT

OR FOR ANY BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MARKETABILITY OR

MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE APPLICABLE TO THIS PRODUCT. Some states do not allow the

exclusive limitation of incidental or consequential damages or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts; so these limitations

orexclusionsmaynotapplytoyou.Thiswarrantygivesyouspeciclegalrightsandyoumayalsohaveotherrightswhichvaryfrom

PROCEDURE FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES:

ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND LG ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR THE

PRODUCT SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN A COURT OF GENERAL JURISDIC-

TION. BINDING ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU AND LG ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO BRING OR

PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Denitions. For the purposes of this section, references to “LG” mean LG Electronics MobileComm U.S.A., Inc., its parents, subsidiaries

andafliates,andeachoftheirofcers,directors,employees,agents,beneciaries,predecessorsininterest,successors,assignsand

suppliers; references to “dispute” or “claim” shall include any dispute, claim or controversy of any kind whatsoever (whether based in

contract, tort, statute, regulation, ordinance, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) arising out of or relating

in any way to the sale, condition or performance of the product or this Limited Warranty.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver. You and LG agree to resolve any claims between us only by binding

arbitration on an individual basis, unless you opt out as provided below. Any dispute between you and LG shall not be combined or

consolidatedwithadisputeinvolvinganyotherperson’sorentity’sproductorclaim.Morespecically,withoutlimitationoftheforego-

ing, any dispute between you and LG shall not under any circumstances proceed as part of a class or representative action. Instead of

arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, but that small claims court action may not be brought on a

class or representative basis.

Arbitration Rules and Procedures. To begin arbitration of a claim, either you or LG must make a written demand for arbitration. The

arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) and will be conducted before a single arbitrator under

the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the “AAA Rules”) and

under the procedures set forth in this section. The AAA Rules are available online at

www.adr.org/consumer.

Send a copy of your written demand for arbitration, as well as a copy of this provision, to the AAA in the

manner described in the AAA Rules. You must also send a copy of your written demand to LG at LG Electronics, USA, Inc. Attn: Legal

Department-Arbitration1000SylvanAvenueEnglewoodCliffs,NJ07632.IfthereisaconictbetweentheAAARulesandtherules

set forth in this section, the rules set forth in this section will govern. This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration

Act. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court of competent jurisdiction. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide,

except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision and to the arbitrability of the dispute are for the

court to decide. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this provision.

Governing Law: The law of the state of your residence shall govern this Limited Warranty and any disputes between us except to the

extent that such law is preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law.

Fees/Costs. You do not need to pay any fee to begin an arbitration. Upon receipt of your written demand for arbitration, LG will

promptlypayallarbitrationlingfeestotheAAAunlessyouseekmorethan$25,000indamages,inwhichcasethepaymentof

thesefeeswillbegovernedbytheAAARules.Exceptasotherwiseprovidedforherein,LGwillpayallAAAling,administration

and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision. If you prevail in the

arbitration,LGwillpayyourreasonableattorneys’feesandexpensestotheextentrequiredbyapplicablelaw.Ifthearbitratornds

either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by

the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA

Rules. In such a situation, you agree to reimburse LG for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay

under the AAA Rules. Except as otherwise provided for, LG waives any rights it may have to seek attorneys’ fees and expenses from

you if LG prevails in the arbitration.

Hearings and Location.Ifyourclaimisfor$25,000orless,youmaychoosetohavethearbitrationconductedsolelyonthebasisof

(1) documents submitted to the arbitrator, (2) through a telephonic hearing, or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA

Rules.Ifyourclaimexceeds$25,000,therighttoahearingwillbedeterminedbytheAAARules.Anyin-personarbitrationhearings

will be held at a location within the federal judicial district in which you reside unless we both agree to another location or we agree to

a telephonic arbitration.

Opt Out. You may opt out of this dispute resolution procedure. If you opt out, neither you nor LG can require the other to participate in

anarbitrationproceeding.Tooptout,youmustsendnoticetoLGnolaterthan30calendardaysfromthedateoftherstconsumer
