RF Exposure
General Statement on RF energy
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives
and transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the
system handling your call controls the power level at which your phone
transmits.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
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 organisation 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 0.374 W/kg
and when tested near the body (at a distance of 15mm) the highest SAR
value was 0.401 W/kg. 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.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s 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 power required to communicate with the
network.
Body worn operation
Important safety information regarding radiofrequency radiation (RF)
exposure.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be
used with a minimum of 15 mm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure
exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
50
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the
World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate
the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If
individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their
children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using ‘hands-free’
devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.
Further information on this subject can be obtained from the WHO home
page http://www.who.int/peh-emf WHO Fact sheet 193: June 2000.
Regulatory information

General statement on interference
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity to personal
medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15
cm be maintained between a mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this use the phone
on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a breast
pocket.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience
interfering noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the
distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between
57
them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if
operation of your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical
device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics
or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible
interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by
airport or airline staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the
aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to
boarding an aircraft.
Interference in cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their
vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the
installation.
Explosive environments
Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs
to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below
decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
58
Blasting Caps and Areas
Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in
areas posted turn off “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid
interfering with blasting operations.
Protection against theft
Your telephone is identified by an IMEI (phone serial number) shown on the
packaging label and in the product’s memory. We recommend that you
note the number the first time you use your telephone by entering * # 0 6
# and keep it in a safe place. It may be requested by the police or your
operator if your telephone is stolen. This number allows your mobile
telephone to be blocked preventing a third person from using it, even with
a different SIM card.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the United States.
60
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that
simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and
near the body with the separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple 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.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of
measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg for an uncontrolled environment.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted
by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this model phone:
FCC ID:
R38YL990N
Highest SAR for head
0.48 W/kg
Highest SAR for body
1.44 W/kg
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements.
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance
of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device at least
10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or
lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation, choose the
belt clips or holsters, which do not contain metallic components, to
maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains
metal, was not tested and certified, and use such body-worn accessory
should be avoided.
