Exposure to radio frequency signals
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines when you
carry the Transmitter on your body, use only the Transmitter Case
supplied by Medtronic. Be sure to insert the Transmitter in the case
as instructed in “How to use the Transmitter”. Use of accessories that
are not expressly approved by Medtronic are not approved and might
cause violation of the FCC RF emissions and RF exposure
guidelines.
Specific absorption rate data
The Transmitter meets the U.S. Government requirements for
exposure to radio waves when used as directed in this document.
The Transmitter is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government when used as directed in
previous sections of this document. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The exposure standard for
wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is
1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions as specified in this document. Before a wireless device
model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified
by the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the
government-adopted requirement for safe radio frequency exposure
under the recommendations of the International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this wireless
device model with all reported SAR levels evaluated and is in
compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines when the
Transmitter is used as directed in this document.
