INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE / SPECIFIC

THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDE-
LINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and re-
ceiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for ex-
posure to radio waves recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines were de-
veloped by the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to as-
sure the protection of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and was adopted
into the European Standard EN 50360 and into oth-
er national standards. The CE mark demonstrates
that the EU requirements are met.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested
at the ear was 0.52 W/kg
a range of functions, they can be used in positions
other than the head, such as directly on the body.
In this case, the limits are met too.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device
while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum level required to reach the network.
The World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of mo-
bile devices. They note that if you nevertheless
want to reduce your exposure then you can do so
by limiting the length of calls or using a 'hands-free'
device to keep the mobile phone away from the
head and body.
1 The tests are carried out in accordance with inter-
national guidelines for testing.
