TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety
Information for wireless handheld phones.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage
the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you
would any other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when
the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to
operate at a higher power level than otherwise
needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use
of wireless phones in the areas where you
drive and always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please observe the
following:
• Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is
your first responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before making or
answering a call if driving conditions or the
law require it.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded
from RF signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation
of six (6) inches be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker
to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by
and recommendations ofWirelessTechnology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than
six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference;
• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if
there is any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere
with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your
service provider (or call the customer service
line to discuss alternatives).
Consumer Information on SAR For Your Safety
This phone model 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 the emission limits for exposure
to Radio Frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. 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 and 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 is 1.6 W/kg.Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although 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. Because the phone is designed to operate
at multiple power levels 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, it must be tested and certified to the FCC
that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model phone
when tested for use at the ear is 1.08 W/kg
and when worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 0.51W/kg (body-worn
measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). While there may be differences
between SAR levels of various phones and at
various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF emission 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 BEJLG800G.
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA)
website at http://www.ctia.org.
* 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.
Body-worn Operation
This device has been tested for typical
body-worn operations with the distance
of 0.79inches (2.0cm) from the user’s
body.
To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0.79inches(2.0cm) must be
maintained from the user’s body.
For example, this device must be
maintained from the user’s body with
an appropriatebelt-clip accessory.[More
than 0.79inches(2.0cm)]
Additionally, Belt clips, holsters & other
body-worn accessories may not contain
metallic components.
Part 15.21 statement
Change or Modifications that are not
expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
Part 15.19 statement
This device and its accessories comply
with part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device and its accessories
may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device and its accessories
must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Part 15.105 statement
This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful
interference or television reception,
which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
• Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on
a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
