Body-worn operation

This phone was tested for typical body-worn

operations with the back of the phone kept at a

distance of 1.5cm from the body. To maintain

compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements,

use accessories that maintain a 1.5cm separation

distance between your body and the back of the

phone. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar

accessories should not contain metallic

components. The use of accessories that do not

satisfy these requirements may not comply with

FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be

avoided.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization

for this model handset with all reported SAR levels

evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF

emission guidelines. SAR information on this model

handset 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

SP2-RG4-E01.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates

(SAR) can be found on the Cellular

Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA)

website at http://www.phonefacts.net.

European RF Exposure

Information

Your Toshiba phone is a radio transmitter and

receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for

exposure to radio waves recommended by

international guidelines. These guidelines were

developed by the independent scientific

organisation ICNIRP and include safety margins

designed to assure the protection of all persons,

regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as

the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit

for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the SAR value for

this device when tested at the ear was

0.405W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a range of

functions, they can be used in other positions, such

as on the body as described in this user’s guide**. In

this case, the tested SAR value is 0.838W/kg.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest

transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device

while operating is typically below that indicated

above. This is due to automatic changes to the

power level of the device to ensure it only uses the

minimum level required to reach the network.
