Radio waves �����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
THIS PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your 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. 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. These
guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by public authorities
such as the Federal Communications Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISEDC),
is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with
the measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528.
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 be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid
after searching on FCC ID: 2ACCJB095
U3 3G 4049G_4049M_Safety Leaflet_Eng_US_V2_20170705.indd 4 2017/7/5 15:15:21

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 of the phone. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested is 0.64 W/Kg for use at the ear and 0.94 W/Kg for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for RF
exposure.
For body-worn operation, the phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least
10 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.ctia.org/
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of
phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using “hands-
free” devices to keep phones away from the head and body. Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available
on the following website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
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 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed radio service (e.g. FM broadcast), they bear the following statement:
This phone complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
U3 3G 4049G_4049M_Safety Leaflet_Eng_US_V2_20170705.indd 5 2017/7/5 15:15:21

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interference;
•This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Your phone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant
with the guidelines when used with a headset or usb data cable.
If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at least 10 mm away from
the body.
