Ensure access to emergency services
Emergency calls from your device may not be possible in some areas
or circumstances. Before travelling in remote or undeveloped areas,
plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services
personnel.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information
Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit
human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and
telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of
mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts per kilogram.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.57
watts per kilogram when held at the ear and 0.70 watts per kilogram
when worn on the body
*
. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be
much lower, as the device has been designed to emit only the RF
energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By
automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your device
reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.The World Health
Organization (WHO) has stated that the scientific information available
* When used with accessories that contain no metal and provide at
least 1.5cm separation between the device (including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted) and the wearer's body.
