THIS S45i PHONE MEETS
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone S45i is a radio
transmitter and receiver. It is de-
signed and manufactured not to ex-
ceed the limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) recommended by in-
ternational guidelines (ICNIRP).
These limits are part of comprehen-
sive guidelines and establish permit-
ted levels of RF energy for the gen-
eral population. The guidelines were
developed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The guidelines include a
substantial safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile
phones employs a unit of measure-
ment known as the Specific Absorp-
tion Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stat-
ed in the international guidelines is
2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are con-
ducted using standard operating po-
sitions with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in
all tested frequency bands. Al-
though the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the ac-
tual SAR of the phone while operat-
ing can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple
power levels so as to use only the
power required to reach the net-
work. In general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the pow-
er output of the phone.
The highest SAR value for this
phone model S45i when tested for
use at the ear is 0.95 W/kg. While
there may be differences between
the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all
meet the relevant international
guidelines for RF exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by
the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) aver-
aged over ten grams of body tissue. The
guidelines incorporate a substantial margin
of safety to give additional protection to the
public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary de-
pending on national reporting requirements
and the network band. For SAR information
