SAFETY
GENERAL STATEMENT ON RF ENERGY
The phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When
switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy
(radio waves). The transmit power level is optimized for best
performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality
reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network
coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low.
Under poor network conditions the phone transmits at a higher power,
may get hot and have a shorter battery life.
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
The phone is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio
waves recommended by the ICNIRP. The limits include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and
health.
The guidelines measure the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2W/Kg and the highest SAR value for this
device is 1.168 W/Kg.
