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.Specic 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 scientic 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 Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 1.6 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 1.24W/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.VodafoneUser ManualBody Worn OperationImportant safety information regarding radiofrequency radiation(RF) exposure. To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a minimum of 5 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) FieldsFor individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF elds, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the following advice:Precautionary measures: Present scientic 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 InformationThe following approvals and notices apply in specic regions as noted.The declaration for CE conformity and RoHS compliance can be read on page 25-26 and page 23.Interface iconsIcon Description Icon DescriptionSignal strength Silent proleVibration Alarm clock setNew message Battery statusKeypad locked HeadsetBatteryThe lithium ion battery of the mobile phone can be immediately used after unpacking.
