These standards prevent thesale of mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level(known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was0.881 W/kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be muchlower, as the device has been designed to emit only the RF energynecessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. Byautomatically emitting lower levels when possible, your devicereduces your overall exposure to RF energy.The Declaration of Conformity statement at the back of this manualdemonstrates your device’s compliance with the European Radio& Terminal Telecommunications Equipment (R&TTE) directive.
