66 Additional safety information
developed by the independent scientific
organization ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the
protection of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile
devices employ a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate
or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP
guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency
bands. The actual SAR level of an
operating device can be below the
maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required
to reach the network. That amount
changes depending on a number of
factors such as how close you are to a
network base station.
The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP
guidelines for use of the device at the
ear is 0.77 W/kg .
Use of device accessories may result in
different SAR values. SAR values may
vary depending on national reporting
66
and testing requirements and the
network band. Additional SAR
information may be provided under
product information at
www.nokia.com.
Your mobile device is also designed to
meet the requirements for exposure to
radio waves established by the Federal
Communications Commission (USA) and
Industry Canada. These requirements
set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over
one gram of tissue. The highest SAR
value reported under this standard
during product certification for use at
the ear is 1.24 W/kg and when properly
worn on the body is 0.51 W/kg .
