APPENDIX D: Information on Exposure to Radio Waves and SAR (Specific

Absorption Rate)

The design of this smartphone complies with the current regulations governing exposure
to radio waves. These regulations are based on scientific guidelines that include safety
margins designed to ensure the safety of everyone, regardless of age or state of health.
The guidelines on exposure to radio waves use a unit of measurement known as the SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate). SAR tests are carried out using standardised methods, with the
phone transmitting at the highest certified level of power on all the frequency bands it uses.
The maximum SAR levels recommended by the ICNIRP (International Commission on Non
Ionizing Radiation Protection) is 2 W/kg, measured on 10 g of tissue.
The highest SAR levels recorded for this phone are as follows:
Auditory use
When used in direct contact with the body
This device complies with the guidelines on exposure to radio frequency both when it
is used in the normal position next to the ear and when it is positioned at least 1.5 cm
from the body. In order to send data files or messages, this device requires an adequate
network connection. On certain occasions, the transmission of data files or messages
may be delayed until an adequate connection becomes available. Until the transmission
has been completed, make sure you follow the instructions on the separation distance
mentioned above.
