RADIOWAVES:
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European
Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all mobile phone models before
theycan be puton the market.The protectionof thehealth and safetyfor the
user and any other person is an essential requirement of these standards or
this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURETO
RADIOWAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver.It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency
electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The
guidelines were developed by anindependent scientific organization (ICNIRP)
and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons,regardless of ageand health.
The radio wave exposureguidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
SpecificAbsorption Rate,orSAR.The SARlimit for mobiledevicesis 2.0W/kg.
Tests forSARareconductedusingstandardoperatingpositionswiththedevice
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Thehighest SARvaluesunder theICNIRPguidelines for thisdevicemodelare:
My mobile phone has a low level of autonomy
Makesure you respectedthe completecharge timing(minimum
3 hours)
After a partial charge, the battery level indicator may not be
exact.Wait for at least 20 minutes after removing the charger
to obtain an exact indication

During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the
values stated above.This is because,for purposes of system efficiency and to
minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile
device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call.
The lower the power output ofthe device,thelower its SAR value.
Body-wornSARtestinghasbeencarriedoutataseparationdistanceof1.5cm.
To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device
should bepositioned at least thisdistance away from thebody. Ifyou arenot
using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of
anymetal andthat itpositions thephone theindicated distanceaway from the
body.
TheWorld Health Organization has stated that present scientific information
does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile
devices.They recommend that if you are interested in further reducing your
exposure then you can easily do so by limiting your usage or simply using a
hands-freekit to keepthe device awayfrom thehead and body.
