INTRODUCTION
hank you for purchasing the M342i
(GSM, DCS) mobile telephone. The mobile telephone
described in this guide is approved for use on all GSM 900/1800 networks. Some of the
messages displayed on your mobile may be different according to your subscription type and/
or service provider.
As with all types of radio transceivers, this mobile telephone emits electromagnetic waves
and complies with international regulations when it is used under normal conditions and in
accordance with the safety and warning messages given below.

THIS
M342i
PHONE MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
Before a mobile phone is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE
directive(1999/5/EC) 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.
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
1
. 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 (CENELEC standard EN 50360: 2001) employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
2
recommended
by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for SAR have been conducted using
standard operating positions (with reference to CENELEC standard EN 50361: 2001) with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands
3
. 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 to a base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for this
M342i
model when tested for compliance against the standard
was X,XXX 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.
Additional information from the World Health Organization (WHO)
Individuals:
Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precau-
tions for use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own
or their children’s’ RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using "hands-free" devices to
keep mobile phones away from the head and body.
RF absorbing devices:
Scientific evidence does not indicate any need for RF-absorbing
covers or other "absorbing devices" on mobile phones. They cannot be justified on health
grounds and the effectiveness of many such devices in reducing RF exposure is unproven.

1. European recommendation 1999/519/EC
2. 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.
3. The maximum level of GSM emitted power is 250mW at 900 MHz and 125 mW at 1800 MHz
according to the GSM standard.
