SAR INFORMATION
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 radiofrequency
(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 with the phone 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 phone while operating
can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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. 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 value for this model
phone when tested for use at the when worn on the body , as described in this
user guide, is 1.19 W/Kg . (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While
there may be differences between the 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 exposure
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can
33
be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after
searching on FCC ID: PP4PX-600.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at
http://www.wow-com.com. * 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 sub-stantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR RF EXPOSURE
Body worm operation
Near-Body operation This device was tested in multiple notebook computer
configurations with USB port configurations for typical near-body operations
with the back of the USB Modem kept 20mm from the body. To maintain
compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements it can be used in notebook
computers with substantially similar physical dimensions,construction, and
electrical and RF characteristics,and that maintain a minimum 20mm separation
distance between the user's body and the back of the USB Modem, including
the antenna. The antenna(s) used for this USB Modem must not be co-located
or must not operate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter
within a host device.

Safety Information
1 . SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FIXED WIRELESS TERMINALS
.POTE NTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere
and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cauls e an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
INTERFERENCE TO MEDICAL DIVICES
Certain electronic equipment may be shielded against RF signal from you
wireless phone. (pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and so on) Turn your phone OFF in
health c are facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to
do so. RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic system in motor vehicles.
.EXPOSURE TO RF ENERGY
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Do not move the antenna close
to, or couching any exposed part of the body when making a call.
FCC Compliance Information
This device complies with Part 15 of 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.

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
INFORMATION TO THE USER
NOTE : 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 of a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
*- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance.
Changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for
Compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Connecting
of peripherals requires the use of grounded shielded signal cables.
