58 Customer Care Customer Care Battery Safety Precautions For the safe use of lithium ion batteries always follow the instructions provided below. Improper handling of lithium ion batteries may result in injury or damage from electrolyte leakage, heating, ignition, or explosion. RF exposure Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operation can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate 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 base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a device model is available fro sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. (Body-worn measurements may differ among device models, depending upon available accessories and

Customer Care 59 FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure. For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, use only accessories that contain no metallic components and provide a separation distance of 2.5cm (1 inch) to the body. Use of other accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
