Radio Frequency (RF) SignalsTHIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE U.S. 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 the emissionlimits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits arepart of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based onstandards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SARlimit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.*Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phonetransmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified powerlevel, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed tooperate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless basestation 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 limit establishedby the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed on position and locations (for example, at the ear andworn on the body) as required by FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested foruse at the ear is 0.33 W/kg, and when worn on the body, is 0.05 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, dependingupon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at variouspositions, they all meet the government requirement.The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCCRF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section athttp://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after search on FCC ID A98-FOMA-N900IG.For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with a NEC accessory designatedfor this product or when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.**In the United States, the SAR limit for wireless mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue.SAR values may vary depending upon national reporting requirements and the network band.14
