THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE

GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

The G8231

Series mobile phones have been designed to comply with the

applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless

phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the

limits of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by governmental

authorities. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy exposure

for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that

were developed by international scientific organizations through periodic

and thorough evaluation in scientific studies. The standards include a

safety margin designed to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of

age and health.

The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement

known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted

using standardised methods with the phone transmitting at its highest

certified power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be

differences between the SAR levels of various phone models, they are all

designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves.

The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone

model when tested for use by the ear is 0.81 W/kg and when worn on the

body is 0.35 W/kg and for WiFi hotspot mode is 0.80 W/kg. For body-worn

operation, the phone has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15

mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or

when properly used with an appropriate accessory and worn on the body.

For devices which include “WiFi hotspot” functionality, SAR measurements

for the device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were taken using a

separation distance of 10 mm. Use of third-party accessories may result in

different SAR levels than those reported.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the US, it

must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission

(FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-

adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in

positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on the body) as required

by the FCC for each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment
