Radio frequency (RF) exposure
CE SAR Compliance
This mobile device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic fields by way of health protection.
The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientific organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. The unit of measurement for the European Council's recommended limit for mobile devices is the specific Absorption Rate” (SAR), and the SAR limit is 2.0 W/ kg averaged over 10 gram of tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP exposure guidelines and the
European Standard EN 62311 and EN 62209-2, for use with dedicated accessories. Use of other accessories which contain metals may not ensure compliance with ICNIRP exposure guidelines.
SAR is measured with the device at a separation of 1.5 cm to the body, and 0 cm to the head, while transmitting at the highest certified output power level in all frequency bands of the mobile device.
The maximum SAR value among each frequency band is listed below:
Head SAR:
0.703 W/kg over 10 gram of tissue
SAR is measured when the phone is at its highest transmitting power. However, the actual SAR of your phone is usually below the test level. This is because your phone is designed to use the minimum power necessary to make and receive calls.
Limiting your exposure to radio Frequency (RF)
•
Keep your phone at least 15mm away from your ear or body while making calls.
•
Limit the length of calls, or use hands-free devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.
•
