173Health and safetyinformationSAR certification informationThis phone meets European Union (EU)requirements concerning exposure to radio waves.Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter andreceiver. It is designed and manufactured, so as notto exceed the limits for exposure to radio-frequency(RF) energy, as recommended by the EU Council.These limits are part of comprehensive guidelinesand establish permitted levels of RF energy for thegeneral population. The guidelines were developedby independent scientific organisations through theperiodic and thorough evaluation of scientificstudies. The limits include a substantial safetymargin designed to ensure the safety of all persons,regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for mobile phones employsa unit of measurement known as SAR (SpecificAbsorption Rate). The SAR limit recommended bythe EU Council is 2.0W/kg.** The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of bodytissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin ofsafety to give additional protection for the public and toaccount for any variations in measurements. The SARvalues may vary depending on national reportingrequirements and the network band.
