Electromagnetic waves safety information (SAR)
Your device is designed to not exceed the radio wave limits recommended by the European authorities. These limits include safety margins to ensure the
protection of all persons regardless of their age or health.
The SAR (specific absorption rate) of mobile phones quantifies the maximum level of exposure of the user to electromagnetic waves, for aural use. French
legislation stipulates that the SAR must not exceed 2 W/kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
The value of the SAR is determined on the basis of the highest level of radio frequencies emitted during laboratory tests.
The actual value of the SAR during use of the phone is lower than this level.
The value of the SAR of the phone can vary according to the following factors: how far/close the phone is to a relay antenna, use of accessories and others.
The maximum SAR level of your device is given in the following table:
Position
Connectivity
SAR value
Head
GSM 900
/ DCS 1800
0.499W/kg
Body (Clearance of 0
cm)
GSM 900 /
DCS 1800
1.745W/kg
The body SAR value is tested at a distance of 0 cm.
NOTE
: The SAR value may vary, depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band.
NOTE:
Do not use your mobile phone in certain locations such as aircraft, hospitals, service stations and professional garages or while driving a vehicle. The
electromagnetic waves from the mobile phone can disrupt the performance of electronic devices used in these locations.
We recommend that you switch off your phone or switch it to flight mode in these locations to avoid interference.
If you use an electronic implant (pacemaker, insulin pump, neurostimulation, etc.). Maintain a distance of 15 cm between the mobile phone and your
electronic implant.
When using an earphone, pregnant women should keep the phone away from their abdomen and teenagers should keep the phone away from their
lower abdomen.
Advice to reduce the level of exposure to radiation:
Please use your mobile phone where reception is good to reduce the quantity of radiation received (avoid using in an underground car park or when
travelling (train or car)).
A reception icon indicates the quality of reception on your phone. A 4-bar display means that reception is good
.
In order to limit exposure to radiation, we recommend using an earphone kit.
In order to limit the detrimental consequences of prolonged exposure to radiation, we recommend that adolescents keep the phone away from
their lower abdomen, and that pregnant women keep the phone away from their abdomen.
