User Manual
SAR limits for Wi-Fi are 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg) for the FCC and IC, and 2.0W/kg for the Council of the Euro-
pean Union. The imp has been tested and meets the FCC, IC and European Union RF exposure guidelines for Wi-Fi
operation.
During SAR testing, the imp’s radio is set to transmit at the highest power level. The SAR levels experienced during
normal use may be lower than the maximum SAR levels.
Devices that incorporate an imp slot must ensure that all surfaces of the imp card (top, bottom, rear) are kept at
least 11mm away from the user’s body to ensure exposure levels remain at or below the maximum levels.
The device was tested according to measurement standards and procedures specified in FCC OET Bulletin 65, Sup-
plement C (2001), FCC KDB 447498 D01 v04, FCC KDB 248227 D01 v01r02, FCC KDB 865664, IEEE 1528:2003, and
Canada RSS-102, Issue 4, 2010.
The imp adheres to the European Council Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the Limitation of Exposure of the
General Public to Electromagnetic Fields [1999/519/ED].
Exposure to RF energy is related to time and distance. If you are concerned about RF exposure, increase your dis-
tance from the imp, and decrease the amount of time you use it when its radio is communicating with wireless
networks.
RF exposure warning:
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions and must not be colo-
cated or operating conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Radio frequency (RF) exposure information
The radiated output power of the Wireless Device is below the Industry Canada (IC) radio frequency exposure lim-
its. The Wireless Device should be used in such a manner such that the potential for human contact during normal
operation is minimized
The device has been evaluated for and shown compliant with the IC Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits when
installed in specific host products operated in portable exposure conditions.
