THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure
to radiofrequency (RF) energy recommended by The Council of the
European Union. 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 limits
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 measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended
by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/ kg.* Tests for
SAR have been conducted using standard operating positions with
the phone 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 level of the phone
while operating 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 network. In general,
the closer you are toa base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance
with the European R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive includes
as one essential requirement the protection of the health and the safety for the
user and any other person. The highest SAR value for this model phone when
tested for use at the ear is 0.76 W/kg. While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the EU
requirements for RF exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/ kg) averaged over ten grams of tissue. The limit
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other
regions please look under product information at www.nokia.com.
