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 modem when tested for use near the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.14 W/Kg. While there may be dierences 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 agents, employees, distributors, and dealers of Cricket are not authorized to make modifications to this Limited Warranty, or make additional warranties binding on Cricket. accordingly, additional statements such as dealer advertising or presentation, whether oral or written, do not constitute warranties by Cricket and should not be relied upon.15.

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

NEAR BODY OPERATIONThis device was tested for typical near body operations with the back of the phone kept 0.5 cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, it must have a minimum distance including the antenna of 0.5 cm from the body during normal operationFCC COMPLIANCE INFORMATIONThis 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.U.S.A. U.S.FEDERAL COMMUNICA-TIONS COMMISSION RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTINFORMATION TO THE USERNOTE : 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 SAFETY INFORMATIONguidelines. 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: Q78-A605. 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 INFORMATIONSAFETY INFORMATION FOR FIXED WIRELESS TERMINALS POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERESTurn 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 DIVICESCertain 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 aect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic system in motor vehicles.EXPOSURE TO RF ENERGYUse 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,

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 o 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 dierent 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.
