Health and safety information
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for
exposure to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government:
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 1.6W/kg. *Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC 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 poser
8
required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the
FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.390 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.607
W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available enhancements 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.
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
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: Q78-ZTEG S309.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and
meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an
accessory that contains no metal and the positions the
handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other
enhancements may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.If you do no t use a body-worn accessory and
are not holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from your body when the phone is
switched on.
9
FCC Compliance
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the condition that this device does not cause
harmful interference.
Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the
