Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and 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.
The radiated output power is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
Avoid extreme temperatures
Avoid contact with liquid, keep dry
Do not try and disassemble
Do not rely on this device for emergency communications
Only use approved accessories
10 Quick Start Guide The guidelines are based on the safety standards previously set by
international standards bodies:
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement
(NCRP). Report 86. 1986 International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996 Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. Your mobile phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific 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 the Specific 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 0.954 W/KG@10g*. 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 the following section about body worn operation
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorised or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimises the antenna performance and the battery life.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a minimum of 1.5 cm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.
Quick Start Guide 11
12 Quick Start Guide
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific 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.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
