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
help.
192 Appendix

The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or
modifications made to the device that are not expressly approved
by High Tech Computer Corporation may void the user’s authority to

Safety precautions for RF exposure
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do
not contain any metal
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your
local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Except as explained elsewhere in the Operating or Service documentation,
do not service any product yourself. Service needed on components inside
these compartments should be done by an authorized service technician or
provider.
Damage requiring service

Liquid has been spilled or an object has fallen into the product.
The product has been exposed to rain or water.
The product has been dropped or damaged.
There are noticeable signs of overheating.
The product does not operate normally when you follow the
operating instructions.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines when used with the standard accessories supplied
or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in usage.
Normal conditions only ensure the radiative performance and safety of
the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users
are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the
Appendix 193
safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body
be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the
equipment.
