APPENDIX C: Information on Exposure to Radio Waves and SAR
(Specic Absorption Rate)
The design of this mobile device complies with the current regulations governing
exposure to radio waves. These regulations are based on scientic guidelines that
include safety margins designed to ensure the safety of everyone, regardless of age
or state of health.
The guidelines on exposure to radio waves use a unit of measurement known as
the SAR (Specic Absorption Rate). SAR tests are carried out using standardised
methods, with the mobile device transmitting at the highest certied level of power
on all the frequency bands it uses.
The maximum SAR levels recommended by the ICNIRP (International Commission
on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection) is 2 W/kg, measured on 10 g of tissue.
The highest SAR levels recorded for this tablet are as follows:
Tesla 2 W8
When used in direct contact 0.715 W/kg (10 g)
This device complies with the guidelines on exposure to radio frequency both when
it is used in the normal position next to the ear and when it is positioned at least
1.5 cm from the body. In order to send data les or messages, this device requires
an adequate network connection. On certain occasions, the transmission of data
les or messages may be delayed until an adequate connection becomes available.
Until the transmission has been completed, make sure you follow the instructions
on separation distance mentioned above.
