IC warning statements
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information: This device meets the government’s
requirements for exposure to radio waves. The guide lines 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 or health.
The SAR limit of ISED (Canada) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue.
Device types:
Portable _PMN NAME_P3 Handheld (IC: 30492-P3) has also been tested against
this SAR limit. according to this standard is less than 1.6W/kg w.
FCC Warning
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference, and
- this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This Product meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
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 or health.
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 to radio 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.
RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This device 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.
The exposure standard 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 accepted by the FCC with
the EUT transmitting at the specified power level in different channels. The
FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported
SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid.
MPE:
To ensure that RF exposure levels remain at or below the tested levels, use a
belt clip, holster, or similar accessory that have no metallic component in
the assembly and must maintains a minimum separation distance of 15mm between
your body and the device.
