(SAR)
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, or SAR. The SAR limit
stated in the international guidelines is
2.0 watts/kilogram (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.
The highest SAR value for this device
when tested for use at the ear is
0.66 W/kg.
SAR values may vary depending on
national reporting and testing
requirements and the network band.
Use of device accessories and
enhancements may result in different
SAR values. Additional SAR
information may be provided under
product information at www.nokia-
asia.com.
* The SAR limit for mobile devices used
by the public is 2.0 W/kg averaged over
10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines
incorporate a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for
the public and to account for any
variations in measurements. SAR
values may vary depending on national
reporting requirements and the
network band. For SAR information in
other regions, please look under
