1.2 Radio waves ........................................................
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive
2014/53/EU (RED) is required of all device models before they can be put on the
market. The protection of the health and safety for the user and any other person is
an essential requirement of these standards or this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL 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 (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended
by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent
scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg.
7
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
highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded
Body-worn SARGSM 1800+WIFI 2.4G1.63 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values
stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimise
interference on the network, the operating power of your device is automatically
decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of
the device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 0 mm. To
meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device should be
positioned at least this distance away from the body.
If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is
free of any metal and that it positions the device the indicated distance away from
the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US Food and Drug
Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to reduce their
exposure they could use a hands-free device to keep the phone away from the head
and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.
For more information, you can go to www.alcatelmobile.com.
Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on
the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your device 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 a 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 device at least 0 mm away from the body.
