RF Exposure  
General Statement on RF Energy  
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it  
is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you  
communicate with your phone, the system handling your  
call controls the power level at which your phone transmits.  
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)  
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  
4
to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age  
and health.  
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific  
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is  
2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when  
tested at the ear was 1.58 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a  
range of functions, they can be used in other positions,  
such as on the body as described in this user guide**.  
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest transmitting  
power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is  
typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic  
changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only  
uses the minimum power required to communicate with  
the network.  
* The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard  
PT62209-1.  
** Please see body worn operation.  
Body-worn Operation  
Important safety information regarding radio frequency  
radiation (RF) exposure:  
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the  
phone must be used with a minimum of 15 mm separation  
from the body.  
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF  
exposure exceeding the relevant guideline limits.  
5
Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)  
Fields  
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to  
RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides  
the following advice:  
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information  
does not indicate the need for any special precautions for  
the use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned,  
they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF  
exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using ‘hands-free’  
devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and  
body.  
Further information on this subject can be obtained online  
from the WHO fact sheet N°193 at  
Regulatory Information  
The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions  
as noted.  
Distraction  
Driving  
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to  
reduce the risk of an accident. Using a phone while driving

Interference  
General Statement on Interference  
Care must be taken when using the phone in close proximity  
to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and  
hearing aids.  
Pacemakers  
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum  
separation of 15 cm be maintained between a mobile  
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference  
with the pacemaker. To achieve this, use the phone on the  
opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry it in a  
breast pocket.  
12  
Hearing Aids  
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may  
experience interfering noises when using wireless devices  
or when one is nearby.  
The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing  
device and the distance from the interference source,  
increasing the separation between them may reduce the  
interference. You may also consult your hearing aid  
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Medical Devices  
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to  
determine if operation of your phone may interfere with  
the operation of your medical device.  
Hospitals  
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in  
hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are  
designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive  
medical equipment.  
Aircraft  
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed  
to do so by airport or airline staff.  
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices  
on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’  
13  
this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.  
Interference in Cars  
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic  
equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of  
mobile phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with  
an external antenna is included in the installation.  
Explosive Environments  
Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres  
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey  
all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your  
phone or other radio equipment.  
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling  
areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or  
storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or  
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.  
Blasting Caps and Areas
