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
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission for the United States and by Health Canada for Canada. 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 or 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 and by Health Canada is 1.6W/kg.
1
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry
Canada 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 in the U.S. and Canada, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed the limit established by each
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) reported to the FCC and available for review by Industry
Canada. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.256 W/kg.
2 (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and regulatory requirements). While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the governmental
requirements for safe exposure.
The FCC and Industry Canada have granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as being in compliance with the FCC and Health Canada 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: IHDT6AF2. You may
also refer to Motorola's website: www.motorola.com/rfhealth. Additional information on Specific
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
(CTIA) website at http://phonefacts.net or the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association
(CWTA) website, http://www.cwta.ca.

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 substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
