Certification Information (SAR)

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone 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 level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone 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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government- adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.08 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.96 W/kg.

(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID GMLRH-39.

2260 specifications

The Nokia 2260 is a resilient and practical mobile phone that embodies the essence of classic mobile design, prioritizing functionality and user convenience over complex modern features. Launched during a period when mobile devices were primarily used for texting and calling, this model is an excellent example of Nokia’s commitment to producing reliable communication tools.

One of the standout features of the Nokia 2260 is its robust build quality. Constructed to withstand everyday wear and tear, the phone’s durable casing ensures it can handle the rigors of daily use, making it ideal for individuals who value reliability. The compact design allows for easy portability, fitting comfortably in a pocket or bag.

The user interface is straightforward, featuring a well-organized keypad with tactile buttons, which provides users with a satisfying typing experience for text messages and dialing. The large monochrome display, while not as advanced as contemporary smartphones, offers clear visibility for essential information and incoming calls.

In terms of connectivity, the Nokia 2260 supports basic GSM technology, providing dependable network access for voice calls and text messaging. It lacks the high-speed internet capabilities of modern smartphones, but its simplicity ensures users stay connected without distractions. The phone operates on a long-lasting battery, which is one of its most appreciated characteristics. Users can expect days of usage on a single charge, which is a significant advantage for those who often find themselves away from power sources.

Another notable aspect of the Nokia 2260 is its limited multimedia features, emphasizing voice calls and text messages. The device may come preloaded with a few simple ringtones and a basic contact management system, but it steers clear of the extensive apps and media functions found in today’s smartphones. This limitation is intentional, catering to users seeking a no-frills device.

In conclusion, the Nokia 2260 represents an era of mobile phones focused on essential communication without the distractions of advanced technology. Its sturdy construction, user-friendly interface, long battery life, and basic connectivity features make it an appealing choice for those who appreciate simplicity and reliability in their mobile devices. Whether for personal use or as a backup phone, the Nokia 2260 stands as a testament to Nokia’s legacy in the mobile industry.
