General Information 11
When using the mobile phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of
interference is limited. If you suspect that interference is taking place, immediately turn off your
mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist for more information. For other medical devices, consult
your physician and the manufacturer of the device. Comply with instructions to switch off the
device or deactivate the RF transmitter when required, especially when posted in hospitals and
airplanes. Equipment used in these places may be sensitive to radio waves emitted from the
device and adversely affect their operation. Also, observe restrictions at gas stations or other
areas with flammable atmosphere or when close to electro-explosive devices.
Child Safety
Do not allow children to play with your mobile phone or its accessories. Keep it out of their
reach. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the mobile phone or
accessories. Your mobile phone and its accessories may contain small parts, which could be
detached and create a choking hazard.
Emergency Calls
Mobile phones operate using radio signals, which cannot guarantee connection under all
conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any mobile phone for essential
communications (e.g. medical emergencies). Emergency calls may not be possible in all areas,
on all cellular networks, or when certain network services and/or mobile phone features are in
use. Check with your local service provider.
SAR Information
The Sonim XP STRIKE has been certified in compliance with the Government’s requirements
for exposure to Radio Waves.
When communicating over the wireless network, the mobile phone emits via the radio frequency
waves low levels of radio energy. The Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, is the amount of RF
energy absorbed by the body while using the phone and is expressed in watts/kilogram (W/kg).
Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations, for example, ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
Inc.). These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general
population.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all used frequency bands.
