THIS DEVICE MEETS
INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
recommended by international
guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF energy
for the general population. The
guidelines were developed by
independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The
guidelines include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure standard for mobile
devices employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
4
2008.4.21 2:47 PM
or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the
international guidelines 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. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR of the
device while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the
device is designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In
general, the closer you are to a base
station, the lower the power output of
the device. Before a phone model is
available for sale to the public,
compliance with the European R&TTE
directive must be shown. This directive
includes as one essential requirement
the protection of the health and the
safety for the user and any other
person. The highest SAR value for this
device when tested for use at the ear is
0,929 W/kg (10g).
