The following IC statement applies only to the version of this model manufactured for

sale in Canada.

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are

associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that

these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices

emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being

used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),

exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known

adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any

biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might

occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. These

models have been tested and found to comply with IC radiation exposure limits set

forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency

(RF) Exposure rules.

The following IC statement applies only to the version of this model manufactured for
