Radio Frequency (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.
15
Page 16
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international
guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific
organization 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 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 1.08 W/kg*. 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 utilizing 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 EN 50360, EN 62209-1, EN
62209-2.
** Please see body worn operation.
16
Page 17
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 guideline limits.
Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World
Health Organization (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
General Statement on Interface
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 mobile phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on the
opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry 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 of hearing device and the
distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between
them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
25
Page 26
Medical Devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer 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
interference 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 devices on board the
aircraft, if your phone offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to
boarding an aircraft.
Interference in Cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their
26
Page 27
vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the
installation.
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 phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below
decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the
air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Getting Started
Thanks for choosing the Tureis. If you’d like your new phone to live a long
and fruitful life, please read this guide carefully and keep it for future
reference. You never know when you might need it.
And don’t worry if the pictures we use to demonstrate your phone’s functions
look a little different from what you see on its screen. It’s the functions they
show that matter.
and get in touch with your phone
Another thing you’ll notice is that we talk about ‘tapping’ a lot. That’s because
your phone has a touch-screen, which means a simple tap with your finger
can both select and open a file. Indeed, you can ‘slide’ switches on the
screen, ‘hold’ files until a list of shortcuts pops up, casually ‘flick’ from page
to page, ‘drag’ items into the bin with a well-aimed index finger, or even
‘pinch’ images to zoom in or zoom out. It’s a joy to use.
And that’s exactly what this guide is about: making sure the relationship with
your new phone is a pleasure from day one. So please read on and enjoy…
