10
ROAD SAFETY
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an
accident. Using a phone while driving (even with a hands free kit) causes distraction
and can lead to an accident. You must comply with local laws and regulations
restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.
Limiting exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to RF fields, the World
Health Organization (WHO) provides the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the 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.
Further information on this subject can be obtained from the WHO home page
http://www.who.int/peh-emf Who Fact sheet 193: June 2000.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
•Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of
a building).
•Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as
microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
•Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do
not contain any metal.
•Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your
local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the system handling
your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits.

11
The radiated output power is far below the international radio frequency exposure
limits. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on the
safety standards previously set by international standards bodies:
•American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
•National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).
Report 86. 1986
•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
•Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
Your mobile device 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 guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 w/kg and the highest SAR value for
this device when tested at the ear was 0.462 w/kg @10g*. As mobile devices offer
a range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on the body as
described in this user guide**.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device’s highest transmitting power, the actual SAR
of this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due
to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum power required to communicate with the network.
*The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard PT62209-1.
**Please see the following section about body worn operation.

12
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the
antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of
unauthorised or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone,
causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as
well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy
is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards; always use your
device only in its normal-use position. Do not touch or hold the antenna area
unnecessarily when placing or receiving a phone call. Contact with the antenna
area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power
level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN
USE optimises the antenna performance and the battery life.
To ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines the phone must be used with a
minimum of 1.5 cm separation from the body.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in your RF exposure exceeding the
relevant guideline limits.

0.455 w/kg @1g (Head), 1.27 w/kg @1g (Body) **
*Note: The 10g SAR value is measured at GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800 MHz and
WCDMA/HSPA FDD I and FDD VIII for both head and body. The Body SAR value of
1.31 w/kg @10g has been tested with back of the device in the holster kept at 1.5
cm away from the body.
**Note: The 1g SAR value is measured at GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/1900 MHz for both
head and body. The Body SAR value of 1.27 w/kg @1g has been tested with back of
the device kept at 1.5cm away from the body.
