installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles such
as electronic fuel injection, electronic
antilock braking, electronic speed
control, and air bag systems. For more
information, check with the
manufacturer of your vehicle or its
equipment.
Only qualified personnel should service
the device. Faulty service may be
dangerous and may invalidate your
warranty. Do not store or carry
flammable liquids, gases, or explosive
materials in the same compartment as
the device, its parts, or accessories.
Switch off your device before boarding
an aircraft. The use of wireless
teledevices in an aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the
aircraft and may be illegal.
■Potentially explosive
environments
Switch off your device in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey
all posted instructions. Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or death. Switch
ENGLISH
off the device at refuelling points such as
near gas pumps at service stations.
Observe restrictions in fuel depots,

areas where you would be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine, below deck on
boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities and where the air contains
chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,
or metal powders. You should check with
the manufacturers of vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane) to determine if this device can
be safely used in their vicinity.
■Certification
information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for
exposure to radio waves.
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 exposure guidelines for mobile
devices employ a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate or
SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP
guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests
for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
The actual SAR level of an operating
device can be below the maximum value
because the device is designed to use
only the power required to reach the
network. That amount changes
ENGLISH
depending on a number of factors such
as how close you are to a network base
station.
SAR values may vary depending on
national reporting and testing
requirements and the network band.
Additional SAR information may be
provided under product information at
www.nokia.com.
This device model has been tested and
meets RF exposure guidelines when
positioned at least 0.5 centimetres (1/5
inches) away from the body when
plugged directly into a USB port on the
host device or used at the end of the
Nokia Connectivity Cable CA-175D that
may be supplied in the sales package.
Your device is also designed to meet the
requirements for exposure to radio waves
established by the Federal
Communications Commission (USA) and
Industry Canada. These requirements set
a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over
one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value
reported under this standard during
product certification when positioned 0.5
cm (1/5 inches) away from the body is
0.81 W/kg.
FCC/Industry Canada notice
Your device may cause TV or radio
interference (for example, when using a
telephone in close proximity to receiving
equipment). The FCC or Industry Canada can
require you to stop using your telephone if
such interference cannot be eliminated. If
you require assistance, contact your local
service facility. This device complies with
part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation. Any
changes or modifications not expressly
ENGLISH
approved by Nokia could void the user's
authority to operate this equipment.
