General Information - Alcatel ONE TOUCH 355 User Manual

OH2_UM_GB_10-11-04 10/11/04
Although the SAR was established at the highest certified level, the actual SAR level for the phone
during use is generally much lower than the maximum values. In fact, since mobiles are designed
to operate at many different power levels, they only use the minimum level of power required to
provide a connection to the network. In theory, the closer you are to a base station antenna, the
lower the power level required by the mobile phone.
The highest tested SAR value for this mobile phone for use at the ear and compliance against the
standard is 0.59 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels on various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the relevant international guidelines and EU requirements
for RF exposure.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) considers that "present scientific information" does not
indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned,
they might choose to limit their own or their children's RF exposure by limiting the length of calls,
or using "hands-free" devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body." (fact sheet
n° 193). Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the
following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid
touching it or degrading it.
