Radio Frequency (RF) SignalsTHIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your wireless phone contains a radio transmitter and receiver. Your NEC phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed theemission 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 guidelinesare based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation ofscientific studies.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). TheSAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with thephone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highestcertified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because thephone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closeryou are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the 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 limitestablished by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed on position and locations (for example,at the ear and worn on the body) as required by FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCCwhen tested for use at the ear is 1.2 W/kg, and when worn on the body, is .561 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phonemodels, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels ofvarious phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.Body-worn OperationThe FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with theFCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grantsection at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fcid after search on FCC ID A98-KMP6J1F1-1A.For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a NEC accessorydesignated for this product or when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cmfrom the body.Aircraft SafetyThe use of wireless phones in aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may be illegal. Any use of a wireless phoneon board an aircraft must be in accordance with applicable regulations. Follow all flight crew instructions. When instructed to turn Offyour wireless telephone, do so.Road SafetyCheck the laws and regulations concerning the use of wireless telephones and their accessories in the areas where you drive and alwaysobey them. If you find it necessary to use your cellular telephone behind the wheel of a car, please:l Give full attention to driving and exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times. (See Flag.)l Observe all the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation.l Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions so require.l Turn Off your wireless phone at a refueling point, such as a gas station, even if you are not refueling your own car.l Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as a wireless phone.* In the United States, the SAR limit forwireless mobile phones used by the publicis 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over onegram of tissue. SAR values may varydepending upon national reportingrequirements and the network band.O Use hands-free operation, ifavailable.11
