Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international guidelines (ICNIRP). 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 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. Before a device model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE directive 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. The highest

Health and Safety
To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electric shock, fire and damage to the equipment, observe the safety precautions in this document.
Acoustics Warning
WARNING! Listening to this device at high volume levels and for extended durations may damage your hearing. In order to reduce the risk of damage to hearing, you should lower the volume to a safe, comfortable level and reduce the
amount of time listening at high levels.
For your own safety, before using headsets or earphones, always reset the volume. Some headphones are louder than other headphones, even if the volume control setting is the same.
Changing the default audio or equaliser settings might lead to higher volume and should only be done with caution.
HP recommends using the headset delivered with your device or offered through HP as aftermarket options that are in compliance with EN
General Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION. Read this information before using your device. For the safe and efficient operation of your device, observe these guidelines:
Potentially explosive atmospheres: Turn off your device when you are in any areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere, such as fuelling areas (petrol stations, below deck on boats), storage facilities for fuel or chemicals, blasting areas and areas near electrical blasting caps and areas where there are chemicals or particles (such as metal powders, grains and dust) in the air.
Interference to medical and personal electronic devices: Most but not all electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals and certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your smartphone.
Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 centimetres is maintained between a device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the recommendations of independent research by Wireless Technology Research.
