Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information

Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts per kilogram.

During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.414 watts per kilogram when held at the ear and 0.882 watts per kilogram when worn on the body.* In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the phone has been designed to emit only the RF energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your phone reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that the scientific information available at present does not suggest a need for users to take any special precautions to prevent RF exposure when using mobile phones.

The WHO notes that if you desire to reduce your exposure you can do so by limiting the time you use your phone or use a "hands-free" device to keep the phone away from your head and body.

*. When used with accessories that contain no metal and provide at least 1.5cm separation between the device (including the antenna, whether extended or retracted) and the wearer's body.
