❏ Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Certification information (SAR)
This device meets international guidelines for exposure to radio waves
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international
guidelines 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. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the device 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 base station, the lower the power output of the device. Before a phone model is
available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE directive must
be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the protection of the
health and the safety for the user and any other person. The highest SAR value for
this device when tested for use at the ear is 1.16 W/kg.
