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.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with
the device transmitting at its highest cer tified 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
Head SARGSM 900 + Bluetooth + Wi-Fi 0.769 W/kg
Body-worn SAR GSM 900 + Bluetooth + Wi-Fi 0.989 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 minimize interference on the network, the operating power of
your mobile 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
10 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 phone the indicated
distance away from the body.
Organizations such as the World Health Organization 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.

Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are
available on the following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your telephone 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 phone at least 10 mm away
from the body.
