Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Testing

Your device has been designed to comply with applicable limits for

RF exposure. These limits use a unit of measurement called

Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which refers to the rate at which

the body absorbs RF energy. The Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) has established a SAR limit for mobile phones

of 1.6 W/kg, which applies in the United States and other countries

that follow the FCC's SAR limit. This limit is based upon standards

developed by expert non-government organizations, such as the

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements

(NCRP), and input from other federal agencies such as the FDA

and EPA. In countries that follow the Council of the European

Union, the SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg.

SAR testing is conducted with the device placed in common

operating positions (e.g., held against the head, worn on the body)

and transmitting at its highest certified power level in each

frequency band of operation. Because the device is transmitting at

its highest certified power level, SAR tests capture a worst-case

operating scenario and therefore often do not reflect the amount

of RF exposure during normal, everyday use. More information on

SAR testing is available on the FCC's website at

http://www.fcc.gov/guides/wireless-devices-and-health-concerns

HTC Corp. submitted SAR test results demonstrating compliance

with the FCC's SAR limit for wireless devices as part of the FCC's

equipment certification process for this device. These results can

be accessed via the FCC's equipment authorization database

(found at http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/) by searching for

the device's FCC ID: NM80PL4200.This device's maximum SAR

values as reported to the FCC are:

 Head: 0.96 W/kg@1g

 Body-worn Accessory: 1.30 W/kg@1g

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for complia nce with applicable SAR limits

during typical body-worn operations. To ensure that RF exposure

levels remain at or below the tested levels, use a belt-clip, holster,

or similar accessory that maintains a minimum separation distance

of 1.0 cm between your body and the device, with either the front

or back of the device facing towards your body. Such accessories

should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn

accessories that do not meet these specifications may not ensure
