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. 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

5

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 1.58 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 IEC standard

PT62209-1.

** Please see body worn operation.

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.

6

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 online

from the WHO fact sheet N°193 at

http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/en/

Regulatory Information

The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions

as noted.

Distraction

Driving

Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to

to an accident. You must comply with local laws and

regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while

driving.

Operating Machinery

Full attention must be given to operating the machinery in

order to reduce the risk of an accident.

• Use the special features which are designed to minimize

the times of pressing buttons, such as Message Templates

and Predictive Text.

11

• Take lots of breaks to stretch and relax.

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. Turn down the volume before using

headphones, Bluetooth stereo headsets or other audio

devices.

Phone Heating

Your phone may become warm during charging and during

normal use.

Only qualified personnel should 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 authorized service

center.

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 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.

13

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’

14

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 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.

Blasting Caps and Areas

Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a

blasting area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios”

or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting

operations.
