Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines,
always use an appropriate accessory if using the phone for
body worn operations. Accessories used with this phone
for body worn operations must not contain any metallic
components and must provide at least 0.59 inches (1.5
centimeters) separation distance between the user's body
and the phone, including antennas. Body worn accessories
that do not meet these requirements may not comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.
This device is not intended to be used with a lanyard or
strap on the body. The device contains a mounting point
that may be used to attach the device to equipment, a
backpack or tool belt, etc.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless
Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of
RF energy absorbed into the head of a user of a wireless
handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive
testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not
represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone
models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory
settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be
substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This
is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to
a base station antenna, phone design and other factors.
What is important to remember is that each phone meets
strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not
represent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which
incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated
above, variations in SAR values between different model
phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR values at or
