Aborting an SOS call
Power adapter plug
The mobile phone is equipped with an energy-efficient power ad­
apter plug SKL-5WE-U050-0500 (input 240 V , output 5.0 V ,
AC DC
500 mA). The zero load is approx. 0.3 W. The average efficiency is
approx. 70 %. The power consumption while charging the mobile
phone is approx. 3.2 W.
SAR information
Information on radio frequency emissions and specific absorption
rates (SAR = Specific Absorption Rate).
All the applicable safety standards related to radio frequency emis­
sions were implemented during the development of this mobile
phone. The limit values are based on scientific directives and con­
tain a safety margin in order to guarantee the safety of all persons
regardless of age and state of health.
The specified values established according to the directives on
radio frequency emissions are based on a measurement unit re­
ferred to as SAR. SAR values are established using standard
methods in which the phone is operated in all possible frequency
bands with the highest power output.
Although the SAR values of various phone models can differ, all
the models were developed to maintain the relevant directives on
radio frequency emissions.
The following information applies to residents of countries which,
as with the European Union, have adopted the SAR limit value
recommended by the ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection) which lies at 2 W/kg (averaged from
10 gram tissue):
The highest SAR value measured, averaged over 10 g tissue, was
0.532 W/kg for this mobile phone measured at the ear.
