RF Exposure

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. 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 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 the 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 0.523 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 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 tests are carried out in accordance with

[CENELEC EN50360] [IEC standard PT62209-1]

.

** Please see page 8 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 1.5 cm

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 Organisation (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.
