for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR
information on this model device 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 ZNFV521.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry

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.
Caution: Avoid potential hearing loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the
most common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some
scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices,
such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at high
volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent
noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the use of
headphones (including headsets, earbuds and Bluetooth or
other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also
been associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the
ear), hypersensitivity to sound and distorted hearing. Individual
susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other potential
hearing problems varies. The amount of sound produced by a
portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the
sound, the device, the device settings and the headphones.
You should follow some commonsense recommendations
when using any portable audio device:
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the
lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you
cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person
sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings.
