■ Certification information (SAR)

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO
RADIO WAVES

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency
(RF) recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general 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 devices employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the
international guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)*. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions with the device
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the
