INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE/

SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)

THIS MOBILE PHONE COMPLIES

WITH THE LIMIT VALUES FOR PRO-

TECTING THE PUBLIC FROM THE

FROM THE EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE

TO ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS. FOR

THIS REASON, THE PHONE SHOULD

BE POSITIONED AT LEAST 1.5 CM

AWAY FROM THE BODY WHEN DATA

IS BEING TRANSFERRED (GPRS).

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy recommended by international guidelines from the

International Commission on Non-

Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines for the protection of the public and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the population. The guidelines were confirmed by independent scientific organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies*. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure limit for mobile phones 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 in all frequency bands using standard operating positions with the phone transmitting at its highest power level. The actual SAR level of the phone during operation can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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.

The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is

0.36 W/kg***.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the international guidelines for safe RF exposure.

* The World Health Organization (WHO,

CH-1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland) states that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of mobile phones.
