chemical plants; or where blasting
operations are in progress. Areas with a
potentially explosive atmosphere are often,
but not always, clearly marked. They include
areas where you would be advised to turn off
your vehicle engine, below deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities and
where the air contains chemicals or particles
such as grain, dust, or metal powders. You
should check with the manufacturers of
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane) to determine if this
device can be safely used in their vicinity.
Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for
exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organisation ICNIRP
and include safety margins designed to
assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices
employ a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR
limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0
watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10
grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the
device transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
The actual SAR level of an operating device
can be below the maximum value because
the device is designed to use only the power
required to reach the network. That amount
changes depending on a number of factors
such as how close you are to a network base
station.
The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP
guidelines for use of the device at the ear is
1.46 W/kg.
Use of device accessories may result in
different SAR values. SAR values may vary
depending on national reporting and testing
requirements and the network band.
Additional SAR information may be provided

All Nokia products comply with international
and, where adopted, country specific
standards and guidelines for limiting human
exposure to electromagnetic fields. These
international standards and guidelines were
adopted after thorough reviews of the
science. Those reviews do not establish a link
between the use of mobile devices and
adverse health effects when the device is
operating within the international standards
and guidelines. We are required by the India
Department of Telecommunications to
include in this user guide the following
guidance on precautionary measures:
You can limit exposure to radio frequency
energy by either using the device in good
reception conditions or using a hands-free
kit (e.g., Bluetooth headset, wired headset,
