 21 -Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:  This Mobile Phone 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: F4(FCC ID: 2ADYY-F4) has also been tested against this SAR limit. The highest SAR  value  reported  under  this  standard  during  product  certification for use at the ear is1.29 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 0.51W/kg.  This  device  was  tested  for  typical  body-worn  operations with the back of the handset kept 10mm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain a 10mm separation distance between the user's  body and the  back  of  the  handset.
