Vehicles
Radio signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in vehicles. For more info, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle or its equipment.
Only qualified personnel should install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation may be dangerous and invalidate your warranty. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories. Do not place your device or accessories in the air bag deployment area.
Safety and texting while driving
Obey all local laws. Always keep your hands free to operate the vehicle while driving. Your first consideration while driving should be road safety.
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) has also published further info and tips on safe driving at www.ctia.org/ consumer_info/safety, which we encourage you to review. Users located in the U.S. may also call
Potentially explosive environments
Turn your device off in potentially explosive environments, such as near gas station pumps. Sparks may cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury or death. Note restrictions in areas with fuel; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive environment may not be clearly marked. These usually are areas where you are advised to turn your engine off, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, and where the air contains chemicals or particles. Check with the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) if this device can be safely used in their vicinity.
Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets international guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields), recommended by international guidelines from the independent scientific organization ICNIRP. These guidelines incorporate substantial safety margins that are intended to assure the protection of all persons regardless of age and health.
The exposure guidelines are based on the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), which is an expression of the amount of radio frequency (RF) power deposited in the head or body when the device is transmitting. The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue.
SAR tests are carried out with the device in standard operating positions, transmitting at its highest certified power level, in all its frequency bands. The maximum recorded SAR values for this device are:
| Maximum | Frequency bands used |
| SAR value | when Maximum SAR value |
|
| was recorded |
|
|
|
When used in direct | 1.77 W/kg | |
contact with the body | over 10g |
|

Your mobile device is also designed to meet the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry Canada SAR (IC) guidelines. FCC ratings for your device and more information on SAR can be found at transition.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html. Information on IC SAR can be found at www.ic.gc.ca.
