Health and safety information
Health and safety information
SAR certification information
This phone meets European Union (EU) requirements
concerning exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured to not exceed the limits for
exposure to radio-frequency (RF) energy, as recommended
by the EU Council. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines were developed by
independent scientific organisations through the periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits
include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR limit recommended by the EU Council is 2.0W/kg.
*
The highest SAR value for this model phone was 0.348W/kg.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while
operating 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 of the phone.
Precautions when using batteries
Never use a charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
If you use the phone near the network’s base station,
it uses less power. Talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network
and the parameters set by the network operator.
Battery charging time depends on the remaining
battery charge, the type of battery, and the charger
used. The battery can be charged and discharged
hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation time is noticeably shorter than normal, it
is time to buy a new battery.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The
limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give addi-
tional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements. The SAR values may vary, depending on
national reporting requirements and the network band.
