FCC with the phone transm itting at its highest  
certified power level in all tested frequency bands.  
Although the SAR is determ ined at the highest  
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the  
phone while operating can be well below the  
m axim um value. This is because the phone is  
designed to operate at m ultiple 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.  
FCC/IC Notice  
This device com plies with part 15 of the FCC rules.  
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:  
(1) This device m ay not cause harm ful interference,  
and (2) this device m ust accept any interference  
received, including interference that m ay cause  
undesired operation.  
To com ply with FCC radiation exposure requirem ents,

Before a phone m odel is available for sale to the  
public, it m ust be tested and certified to the FCC that it  
does not exceed the lim it established by the  
governm ent-adopted requirem ent for safe exposure.  
The tests are perform ed in positions and locations  
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by  
the FCC for each m odel. The highest SAR value for  
this m odel phone when tested for use at the ear is  
1.31 W/kg. and when worn on the body, as described  
in this user guide, is 0.648 W/kg. (Body-worn  
m easurem ents differ am ong phone m odels,  
depending upon available accessories and FCC  
requirem ents). While there m ay be differences  
between the SAR levels of various phones and at  
various positions, they all m eet the governm ent  
requirem ent for safe exposure.  
The body-worn m easurem ents were perform ed on  
the following Kyocera accessories:

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S  
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.  
Your wireless phone is a radio transm itter and  
receiver. It is designed and m anufactured not to  
exceed the em ission lim its for exposure to  
radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal  
Com m unications Com m ission of the U.S.  
Governm ent. These lim its are part of com prehensive  
guidelines and establish perm itted 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 m argin  
designed to assure the safety of all persons,  
regardless of age and health.  
The FCC has granted an Equipm ent Authorization for  
this m odel phone with all reported SAR levels  
The exposure standard for wireless m obile phones  
em ploys a unit of m easurem ent known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR lim it set  
by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted  
evaluated as in com pliance with the FCC RF em ission  
guidelines. SAR inform ation on this m odel phone is

OVFKWC-5135. Additional inform ation on Specific  
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular  
Telecom m unications and Internet Association (CTIA)  
web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.  
Vehicles–RF signals m ay affect im properly installed or  
inadequately shielded electronic system s in m otor  
vehicles. Check with the m anufacturer of the device to  
determ ine if it is adequately shielded from external RF  
energy. Your physician m ay be able to help you obtain  
this inform ation.  
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR lim it for  
m obile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)  
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard  
incorporates a substantial m argin of safety to give  
additional protection for the public and to account for  
any variations in m easurem ents.  
Blasting areas–Turn off your phone where blasting is in  
progress. Observe restrictions, and follow any  
regulations or rules.  
Caution  
The user is cautioned that changes or m odifications not  
expressly approved by the party responsible for
