Additional safety
information
This product may contain small
parts. Keep them out of the reach of
small children.
Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting
equipment, including wireless
phones, may interfere with the
function of inadequately protected
medical devices. Consult a physician
or the manufacturer of the medical
device to determine whether they
are adequately shielded from
external radio frequency energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices
recommend a minimum separation
of 15.3 centimetres (6 inches)
between a wireless device and an
implanted medical device, such as a
pacemaker or implanted
cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid
potential interference with the
medical device. Persons who have
such devices should:
•Always keep the wireless device
more than 15.3 centimetres (6
inches) from the medical device.
•Turn the wireless device off if
there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
•Follow the manufacturer
directions for the implanted
medical device.
If you have any questions about
using your wireless device with an
implanted medical device, consult
your health care provider.
Hearing
Some wireless devices may interfere
with some hearing aids.

Operating environment
This device model has been tested
and meets RF exposure guidelines
when positioned at least 0.5
centimetre (1/5 inch) away from the
body when plugged directly into a
USB port on the host device or used
at the end of a connectivity cable
that may be supplied in the sales
package.
Vehicles
Radio signals may affect improperly
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.
Do not store or carry flammable
liquids, gases, or explosive materials
in the same compartment as the
device, its parts, or accessories.
Remember that air bags inflate with
great force. Do not place your device
or accessories in the air bag
deployment area.
Potentially explosive
environments
Switch off your device in any area
with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, for example near gas
pumps at service stations. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion
or fire resulting in bodily injury or
death. Observe restrictions in fuel
service stations, storage, and
distribution areas; chemical plants;
or where blasting operations are in
progress. Areas with a potentially
explosive atmosphere are often, but
not always, clearly marked. They
include 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 device model meets
guidelines for exposure to radio
waves.
Your 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 organisation
ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of
all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The exposure guidelines 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 ten 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
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

centimetre (1/5 inch) away from the
body when plugged directly into a
USB port on the host device or used
at the end of a connectivity cable
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 inch) away
from the body is 1.12 W/kg
