European RF Exposure Information

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure 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
the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0.69 W/
kg at GSM 1800 band. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they
can be used in other positions, such as on the body as described in this
user guide**. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 0.521 W/kg at
GSM 900 band.
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices 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 mobile devices. They note that if you 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. Additional
information can be found on the websites of the World Health
Organization (http://www.who.int/emf).
* The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines
for testing.

worn operation.

FCC RF Exposure Information

In August 1996 the Federal Communication (FCC) of the United States
with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone
complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards. Use
