126Health and SafetyInformationExposure to Radio-FrequencyEnergy (SAR Information)This 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 throughperiodic 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 is2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams ofbody tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial marginof safety to give additional protection for the public andto account for any variations in measurements. The SARvalues may vary depending on national reportingrequirements and the network band.Health and Safety Information127SAR tests are conducted using standard operatingpositions with the phone transmitting at its highestcertified power level in all tested frequency bands.Although the SAR is determined at the highestcertified power level, the actual SAR level of thephone while operating can be well below themaximum value. This is because the phone isdesigned to operate at multiple power levels so asto use only the power required to reach thenetwork. In general, the closer you are to a basestation, the lower the power output of the phone.
