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.
Specic 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 scientic 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 Specic
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 1.29W/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 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 test s are carr ied out in accordance with IEC stand ard
PT 622 09 -1.
** Please see page 3 about body worn operation.
Body Worn Operation
Important safety information regarding radiofrequency
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 elds, the World Health Organisation (WHO) provides the
following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientic 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.
Regulatory Information
The following approvals and notices apply in specic regions
as noted.
The declaration for CE conformity and RoHS compliance can
be read on page 25-26 and page 23.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the condition that this device does not cause
harmful interference.Caution: Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.

•
break when you sit down.
Small Children
Do not leave your phone and its accessories within the reach
of small children or allow them to play with it.
They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally
damage the phone.
Your phone contains small parts with sharp edges that may
cause an injury or which could become detached and create
a choking hazard.

Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals,
which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore,
you must never rely solely on any wireless phone for emergency
communications.
Loud Noise
This phone is capable of producing loud noises which may
damage your hearing.
Bright Light
The phone can produce a ashing light, so it can be used as
a torch. However, do not use it too close to the eyes.
Phone Heating
Your phone may become warm during charging and during
normal use.
Electrical Safety
Accessories
Use only approved accessories.
Do not connect with incompatible products or accessories.
Take care not to touch or allow metal objects, such as coins or
key rings, to contact or short-circuit in the battery terminals.
Connection to a Car
Seek professional advice when connecting a phone interface
to the vehicle electrical system.
Faulty and Damaged Products
Do not attempt to disassemble the phone or its accessory.
Only qualied personnel must service or repair the phone or
its accessory.
If your phone or its accessory has been submerged in water,
punctured, or subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you
have taken it to be checked at an authorised service centre.
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.
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 device 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 vehicles unless a handsfree 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.
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.
