Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:
?
This CDMA/GPS tracker meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio
waves. 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 or health.
FCC RF Exposure Information and Statement The SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6
W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. Device types: ATC (FCC ID: ZKQ-ATC)
has also been tested against this SAR limit. The highest SAR value reported under
this standard during product certification when properly worn on the body is
1.12W/kg. This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of
the handset kept 0 cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
requirements, use accessories that maintain a 0 cm separation distance between the
9
user's body and the back of the handset. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar
accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0 cm must be maintained between the
user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and
similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved
antenna.
