Regulatory information | Alcatel 1042X, 1040X manual

The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices 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. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:

1040X/1040D:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded.
Head SAR	GSM 900	0.748 W/kg
Body-worn SAR	GSM 900	0.665 W/kg
1042X/1042D:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was recorded.

Head SAR	GSM 900 + Bluetooth	0.748 W/kg
Body-worn SAR	GSM 900 + Bluetooth	1.00 W/kg

During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.

Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 10 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device should be positioned at least this distance away from the body. If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone the indicated distance away from the body.

Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure they could use a hands- free device to keep the phone away from the head and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.

Your telephone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.

As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the guidelines when used with headset or USB data cable. If you are using another accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at least 10 mm away from the body.
