Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a “to •
do” list or flipping through your address book takes attention away
from your primary responsibility of driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. Place calls when you are not •
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car
will be stationary.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may •
be distracting. Make the person you are talking to aware that you
are driving and suspend conversations that could potentially divert
your attention from the road.
Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in •
the case of fire, traffic accidents, or medical emergencies.
Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see a car •
accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives
are in danger, call a local emergency number.
Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency assistance •
number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing
no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident
where no one appears injured, or a vehicle that you know to be
stolen, call a number that is designated for reporting these types
of situations.

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 2.0 W/kg.
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
Head SAR 0.757 W/kg
Body-worn SAR 0.365 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 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.
A body-worn SAR test has been performed on this device at a
separation distance of 1.5 cm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during
body-worn operation, the device must be positioned at least x.x cm
away from the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US
Food and Drug Administration have suggested that if people are
concerned and want to reduce their exposure, they could use a
hands-free accessory to keep the wireless device away from the
head and body during use, or reduce the amount of time spent using
the device.
