Important RF Notice

This device was tested for compliance with the applicable FCC and Industry Canada

specific absorption rate (SAR) limits for radio frequency (RF) exposure 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

compliance with applicable SAR limits and their use should be avoided.

8 Important RF Notice

Important note on recoverable data

Files and other data that have been deleted, cleared, removed, or erased from your device

may still be recoverable by third-party data recovery software. Even a factory reset may not

permanently erase all data from your phone, including personal information.
