10 Safety Information for Wireless Devices
10.1 RF Exposure
!
WARNING
Please read this information before using your wireless device.
Your Mini-MT is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emissions limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. These guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by
the U.S. and international standards bodies. 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 RF devices, such as the Mini-MT, employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the
FCC is 1.6W/kg. SAR values at or below that limit are considered safe for the general
public.
Before a wireless RF device is made available for sale to the Public, it must be tested and
certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the SAR limits established by the FCC. Tests
for SAR are conducted using the positions and locations (e.g., at the ear or worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each device model. The Mini-MT has been tested and
meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used as a speakerphone, with a standard
2.5mm headset, or when worn on the body using an approved belt clip. Other uses may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.

WARNING
To minimize RF exposure, it is strongly recommended that you use a
headset with your Mini-MT or operate it in hands-free mode.
