THE NOKIA 6170 DEVICE MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device 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 (ICNIRP). These limits establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based
on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards and guidelines
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of the public,
regardless of age and health and to account for any variations in measurements.
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 international
guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten 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 well 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 when tested
according to international testing procedures for use at the ear for device type
RM-47 is 0.34 W/kg and for device type RM-48 is 0.61 W/kg. Your phone’s
device type is listed on the label located under the battery.
SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements
and the network band. Use of device accessories and enhancements may result
in different SAR values. Additional SAR information may be provided under
product information at www.nokia.com
.
USA and Canada: The SAR limit of USA (FCC) and Canada (IC) is 1.6 W/kg averaged
over one gram of tissue. Device types RM-47 and RM-48 have also been tested
against this SAR limit. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during
product certification for device type RM-47 when used at the ear is 0.43 W/kg
and when properly worn on the body is 0.11 W/kg. The highest SAR value reported
under this standard during product certification for device type RM-48 when
used at the ear is 1.12 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 1.09 W/kg.
