Safety Precautions

xxxii

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and 
receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits 
for exposure to radio waves recommended by 
international guidelines. These guidelines were 
developed by the independent scientific 
organization ICNIRP and include safety margins 
designed to assure the protection of all 
persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement 
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. 
The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/k

g

.

As mobile devices offer a range of functions, 
they can be used in other positions, such as on 
the body as described in this user guide*.
Highest SAR value:

As SAR is measured utilizing the device's 
highest transmitting power the actual SAR of 
this device while operating is typically below 
that indicated above. This is due to automatic 
changes to the power level of the device to 
ensure it only uses the minimum level required 
to reach the Network. 
The World Health Organization has stated that 
present scientific information does not indicate 
the need for any special precautions for the use 
of mobile devices. They note that if you want 
to reduce your exposure then you can do so by 
limiting the length of calls or using a handsfree 
device to keep the mobile phone away from 
the head and body.

important notes regarding body-worn operation.
**Measured in accordance with international 
guidelines for testing.

The maximum output voltage for the music 
player function, measured in accordance with 
EN 50332-2, is 29.0 mV.

.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful 
interference, and (2) this device must accept 
any interference received, including 
interference that may cause undesired 
operation.

.

Changes or modifications not expressly 
approved by the manufacturer responsible for 
compliance could void the user's authority to 
operate the equipment.

This equipment has been tested and found to 
comply with the limits of a Class B digital 
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 
These limits are designed to provide reasonable 
protection against harmful interference in a 
residential installation. This equipment 
generates, uses and can radiate radio 
frequency energy and, if not installed and used 
in accordance with the instructions, may cause 
harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that 
interference will not occur in a particular 
installation; if this equipment does cause 
harmful interference to radio or television 
reception, which can be determined by turning 
the equipment off and on, the user is 
encouraged to try to correct the interference by 
one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient/relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the 

equipment and receiver.

3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a 

circuit different from that to which the 
receiver is connected.

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/

TV technician for help.
