SAR information Head: 0.55 W/kg@10g (CE) Body: 0.42 W/kg@10g (CE) Federal Communications Commission notice This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 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 TV reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, 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 or television technician for
Safety and regulatory guide 11 help. Modifications The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to the device that are not expressly approved by HTC Corporation may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement  This Transmitter has been demonstrated co-location compliance requirements with Bluetooth and WLAN. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.  This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy Your wireless device has an internal antenna that emits radio frequency (RF) energy. Human exposure to RF energy has been and continues to be the subject of scientific research. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), “the weight of scientific evidence has not linked cell phones with any health problems.” You can access this FDA publication and other information on human exposure to RF energy at: U.S. Food and Drug Administration: http://www.fda.gov/Radiation-EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/ucm116282.htm Federal Communications Commission: http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/radio-frequency-safety NIH National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences: http://www.niehs.nih.gov/health/topics/agents/cellphones/ World Health Organization: http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/en/ IEEE Committee on Man and Radiation: http://ewh.ieee.org/soc/embs/comar/ International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection: http://www.icnirp.de/ Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Testing Your device has been designed to comply with applicable limits for RF exposure. These limits use a unit of measurement called Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which refers to the rate at which the body absorbs RF energy. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established a SAR limit for mobile phones of 1.0W/kg, which applies in the United States and other countries that follow the FCC’s SAR limit. This limit is based upon standards developed by expert non-government organizations, such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
12 Safety and regulatory guide (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), and input from other federal agencies such as the FDA and EPA. In countries that follow the Council of the European Union, the SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg. SAR testing is conducted with the device placed in common operating positions (e.g., held against the head, worn on the body) and transmitting at its highest certified power level in each frequency band of operation. Because the device is transmitting at its highest certified power level, SAR tests capture a worst-case operating scenario and therefore often do not reflect the amount of RF exposure during normal, everyday use. More information on SAR testing is available on the FCC’s website at http://www.fcc.gov/guides/wireless-devices-and-health-concerns. HTC Corp. submitted SAR test results demonstrating compliance with the FCC’s SAR limit for wireless devices as part of the FCC’s equipment certification process for this device. These results can be accessed via the FCC’s equipment authorization database (found at https://www.fcc.gov/fccid) by searching for the device’s FCC ID: NM8HTV33.This device’s maximum SAR values as reported to the FCC are: SAR information Head: 1.0 W/kg@1g (FCC) Body: 0.5 W/kg@1g (FCC) This device is restricted to indoor use only when operating in the 5150 to 5350 MHz frequency range. Body-worn Operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. A Operation temperature separation distance must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna:  0.5 cm to comply with the RF exposure requirements in Europe  1 cm to comply with the RF exposure requirements in the U.S. 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. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna. Telecommunications & Internet Association (TIA) safety
Safety and regulatory guide 13 information Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:  Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.  Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.  Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately. WEEE notice The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which entered into force as European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in the treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life. The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the prevention of WEEE, and in addition, to promote the reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery of such wastes so as to reduce disposal. The WEEE logo (shown at the left) on the product or on its box indicates that this product must not be discarded in a landfill. Electronic devices contain substances that may be hazardous to the environment if not properly disposed of.
