IMPORTANT: Changes or modifications to this product not authorized could

void the EMC and wireless compliance and negate your authority to operate the

product. This product has demonstrated EMC compliance under conditions that

included the use of compliant peripheral devices and shielded cables between

system components. It is important that you use compliant peripheral devices

and shielded cables between system components to reduce the possibility of

causing interference to radios, televisions, and other electronic devices.

Certification information (SAR)


The device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves. 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 ICNIRP 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 measurement


known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stat-
ed in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC 88

over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using stand-
ard 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 maximum 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 Public to Electromagnetic Fields [1999/519/EC].
