CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission 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
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
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 phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone 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 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 established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when
tested for use at the ear is 1.27 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 0.51 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available enhancements and
FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, 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 FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID PYANMM-1.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines for use with a carry case, belt clip, or holder that
contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 5/8-inch
(1.5 cm) from the body. Use of other carry cases, belt clips, or holders may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use
a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, position
the handset a minimum of 5/8-inch (1.5 cm) from your body when the
phone is switched on.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions

• TECHNICAL INFORMATION
a. Battery talk and standby times are estimates only and depend on signal
strength, network conditions, features used, battery age and condition
(including the effect of charging habits), temperatures to which battery is
exposed, use in digital mode, and many other factors. Please note that the
amount of time a phone is used for calls will affect its standby time.
Likewise, the amount of time that the phone is turned on and in the
standby mode will affect its talk time.
