The wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limit for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and established permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. These guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by international standard
bodies. These standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health. This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device has been shown to be capable of
compliance for localized specific absorption rate (SAR) for uncontrolled environment / general public
exposure limits specific in ANSI/EEE C95.1-1992 and has been tested in accordance with the
measurement procedures specified in IEEE Std. 1528-2003 December 2003.
