Alcatel One Touch 282 User Manual page 7

• RADIO WAVES:
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European
Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all mobile phone models before
they can be put on the market. The protection of the health and safety for the
user and any other person is an essential requirement of these standards or
this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic
fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed
by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg.
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
highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded.
Head SAR GSM 900
Body-worn SAR GSM 900
10
0.557 W/kg
0.671 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the
values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to
minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile
device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The
lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 1.5 cm.
To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device should
be positioned at least this distance away from the body. If you are not using an
approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal
and that it positions the phone the indicated distance away from the body.
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and
Drug Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to
reduce their exposure they could use a hands-free device to keep the phone
away from the head and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time
spent on the phone.

Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you
should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other
than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the
guidelines when used with headset or USB data cable. If you are using another
accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it
positions the phone at least 1.5 cm away from the body.
