Your telephone is a transceiver that operates on GSM networks with 900
and 1800 MHz bands.
The marking indicates that your telephone complies with "1999/5/EC
(R&TTE)" directive and that the accessories concerned comply with
current EC directives. The entire copy of the Declaration of Conformity
for your telephone can be obtained through our website:

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter/receiver. It was designed and manufactured to comply
with the radiofrequency (RF) exposure thresholds recommended by international requirements
(ICNIRP)
(1)
and by the Council of the European Union (Recommendation 1999/519/EC)
(2)
.
These limits are part of a set of requirements and establish authorised radiofrequency levels for
the public.These limits were established by independent groups of experts on the basis of regular
and detailed scientific assessments.They include a significant safety margin intended to ensure the
safety of all, regardless of age or state of health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones is determined by a measurement unit known as the
Specific Absorption Rate or “SAR”. The SAR limit is set by international requirements or by the
Council of the European Union at 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue.
The tests used to determine SAR levels were carried out on the basis of standard usage modes
with the phones transmitting at their maximum power level over the entire range of frequency
bands.
Although the SAR was established at the highest certified level, the actual SAR level for the mobile
phone during use is generally much lower than the maximum values. In fact, since mobile phones
are designed to operate at many different power levels, they only use the minimum level of power
required to provide a connection to the network. In theory, the closer you are to a base station
antenna, the lower the power level required by the mobile phone.
The highest tested SAR value for this mobile phone for use at the ear and compliance against the
standard is 1.0 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels on various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the relevant International guidelines and EU requirements
for RF (radio-waves) exposure.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) considers that present scientific information does not
indicate the need for any special precautions 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 (fact sheet n°
193). Additional information about electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the
following site: http://www.who.int/peh-emf.
Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid
touching it or damaging it.
