Travel charger: Input: 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz,
150 mA
Output: 5 V, 1000 mA
Battery: Lithium 1400 mAh
RADIO WAVES:
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERN-
MENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure
to radio-frequency (RF) energy. These limits
are part of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are
based on standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines include a substantial
safety margin designed to ensure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by public authorities such as the
Federal Communications Commission of the
US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada,
is 1.6 W/Kg averaged over 1 gram of body
tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions with the mobile
phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of
the mobile phone while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the
mobile phone is designed to operate at multi-
ple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general,
the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output of the
mobile phone. Before a mobile phone model
is available for sale to the public, compliance
with national regulations and standards must
be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model mobile
phone when tested is 1.158 W/Kg for use at
the ear and 1.174 W/Kg for use close to the
body.
While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various mobile phones and at
various positions, they all meet the govern-
ment requirement for RF exposure. For
body-worn operation, the mobile phone meets
FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is
35
used with a non-metallic accessory with the
handset at least 10 mm from the body. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found
on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.
phonefacts.net
The World Health Organization (WHO) consid-
ers 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 limit-
ing the length of calls, or using “hands-free”
devices to keep mobile phones away from the
head and body. (fact sheet n°193). Additional
WHO information about electromagnetic fields
and public health are available on the follow-
ing website: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Note: This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interfer-
ence in a residential installation. This equip-
ment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio commu-
nications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equip-
ment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equip-
ment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on
a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/
TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the
operation of a licensed radio service (e.g. FM
broadcast), they bear the following statement:
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 interfer-
ence
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
36
Your mobile phone is equipped with a built-in
antenna. For optimal operation, you should
avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions,
they can be used in positions other than
against your ear. In such circumstances the
device will be compliant with the guidelines
when used with headset or usb data cable. If
you are using another accessory ensure that
whatever product is used is free of any metal
and that it positions the mobile phone at least
10 mm away from the body.
