RF Exposure

General Statement on RF energy

Your phone contains a transmitter and a 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.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. I t is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by international guid elines. 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 th e
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile
devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value f or this
device when tested at the ear was 0.656 W/kg and when
tested near the body (at a distance of 15mm) the highest
SAR value was 0.829 W/kg. As mobile device s 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 ab ove. 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.

Body worn operation

Important safety information regarding radio frequency
radiation (RF) exposure.

To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the
phone must be used with a minimum of 15 mm
separation from the body.

Failure to observe these instructions could result in your
RF exposure exceeding the relevant guidelin e limits.

49

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 inform ation
does not indicate the need for any special precaution s for
the use of mobile phones. If individuals are co ncerned,
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 a way from
the head and body.

Further information on this subject can be obtained fro m
the WHO home page http://www.who.int/peh -emf WHO
Fact sheet 193: June 2000.

Interference

General statement on interference

Care must be taken when using the phone in close
proximity to personal medical devices, such as
pacemakers and hearing aids.

Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mo bile
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interferen ce
with the pacemaker. To achieve this use the pho ne on

56

the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not car ry it in
a breast pocket.

Hearing Aids

People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may
experience interfering noises when using wireless
devices or when one is nearby.

The level of interference will depend on the type o f
hearing device and the distance from the int erference
source, increasing the separation between them may
reduce the interference. You may also consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Medical devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufactu rer
to determine if operation of your phone may interfere
with the operation of your medical device.

Hospitals

Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so
in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These
requests are designed to prevent possible int erference
with sensitive medical equipment.

Aircraft

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are
instructed to do so by airport or airline staff.

Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless dev ices
on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’
this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.

Interference in cars

Please note that because of possible interferen ce to
electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers
forbid the use of mobile phones in their vehicles unless a
handsfree kit with an external antenna is included in the
installation.

57

Explosive environments

Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres

In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey
all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your

transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contain s
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.

Blasting Caps and Areas

Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a
blasting area or in areas posted turn off “two -way radios”

or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting

operations.

Protection against theft

Your telephone is identified by an IMEI (phone serial
number) shown on the packaging label and in the

product’s memory. We recommend that you no te the

number the first time you use your telephone by
entering * # 0 6 # and keep it in a safe place. It may be
requested by the police or your operator if your
telephone is stolen. This number allows your mo bile
telephone to be blocked preventing a third person from
using it, even with a different SIM card.

antenna or transmitter.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed
the emission limits for exposure to radio frequ ency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications Commis sion
of the United States.

During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure
in usage against the head with no separation, and near
the body with the separation of 10 mm. Alth ough the
SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the device while operatin g can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to reach the network.
In general, the closer you are to a wireless bas e station
antenna, the lower the power output.

The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a
unit of measurement is known as the Specific Abso rption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg for
an uncontrolled environment.

transmitting at its highest certified power level in al l
tested frequency bands.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization fo r this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.

SAR information on this model phone:

While there may be differences between the SAR levels
of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirements.

SAR compliance for body-worn operation is bas ed on a
separation distance of 10 mm between the unit and the
human body. Carry this device at least 10 mm away from
your body to ensure RF exposure level compliant or
lower to the reported level. To support bod y-worn
operation, choose the belt clips or holsters, which do
not contain metallic components, to maintain a
separation of 10 mm between this device an d your body.

RF e xposure compliance with any body- worn accessory,
which contains metal, was not tested and cer tified, and
use such body-worn accessory should be avoid ed.
