Other medical devices:
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, may interfere
with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or
the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch off your phone in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF
energy.
Posted facilities:
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Potentially explosive atmospheres:
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey
all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a refuelling point (service station).
Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in
fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked.
They include below deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where
you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Vehicles:
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles (e.g. electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock)
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag systems). Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Certification information (SAR):
This model phone meets the EU requirements for exposure to radio waves.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended by The Council of the
European Union is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for SAR have been conducted using standard operating
positions with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands.
The highest SAR value for this device when tested was 0.249 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
