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.
Specic 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 scientic 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 Specic
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 1.29W/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.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard
PT62209-1.
** Please see page 3 about body worn operation.

User Manual
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.
Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to
RF elds, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the
following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientic 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
