■ Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
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 to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is
2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an
operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to
use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on
a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest
SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the ear is 1.00 W/kg
(RM-409) or 1.30 W/kg (RM-417).
Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR
values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the
network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product

Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio
waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry
Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of
tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product
certification for use at the ear is 1.25 W/kg (RM-409) or 1.21 W/kg (RM-417), and
when properly worn on the body is 1.00 W/kg (RM-409) or 0.86 W/kg (RM-417).
