Compliance with International Standards

Your device 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 organization ICNIRS and include safety

margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regard-

less of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for devices employ a unit of measure-

ment known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit

stated in the ICNIRS guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) aver-

aged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using

standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its

highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The

actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maxi-

mum value because the device is designed to use only the power

required to reach the network.

This equipment complies with the European Council Recommen-

dation of 12 July 1999 on the Limitation of Exposure of the Gen-

eral Sublic to Electromagnetic Fields [1999/519/EC].
