ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION

general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the international
guidelines is 2.0 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the device 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, the lower the power output of the
device.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested for use at the ear is 0.70 W/kg.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body.
When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should
not contain metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from
your body.
In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality
connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages
may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation
distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.
* The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for
any variations in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national
reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other
regions please look under product information at www.nokia.com.
