the devices that use the 2.4 GHz band.
· This unit may not function properly if radio waves from a nearby
broadcasting station, etc. is too strong.
Intended usage · This unit is for normal, general use only. · Do not use this
system near an equipment or in an environment that is sensitive to radio
frequency interference (example: airports, hospitals, laboratories, etc). This
Bluetooth module 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. FCC
RF Exposure Information and Statement the SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg
averaged over one gram of tissue. Device types: BM83SM1 (FCC ID: XN6BM83SM1)
has also been tested against this SAR limit. The highest SAR value reported
under this standard during product certification for use at the Head is
W/kg and when properly worn on the body is W/kg. Body-worn
Operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply
with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0cm must be
maintained between the user’s body and the Bluetooth module, including the
antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by
this device should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories
that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure
requirements and should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved
antenna. This equipment complies with ISED Canada radiation exposure limits
set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End user must follow the specific
operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This transmitter
must not be colocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one
gram of tissue. The highest SAR value for BM83SM1 (IC: 8819A-BM83SM1) when
worn on the body is *** W/Kg. This device was tested for typical body-worn
operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0 cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset,
including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar
accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with
RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Use only the
4 supplied or an approved antenna.
