Wiko OZZY - Manual (Page 23)

in accordance with the international guidelines (ICNIRP 1 )
on exposure to radio frequencies. These guidelines, which
are based on various studies and research, have been de-
veloped by independent scientific organisations to ensure
the safety of everyone who uses a mobile phone.
The safety information on exposure to radio waves uses a
unit of measurement known as sAR (specific Absorption
Rate). The international guidelines have set this limit at
2W/kg*. The phone is used in standard operating positions
when being tested for its sAR.
1 International Commission on Non-Ionising Radiation
Protection
Although the sAR is determined using the highest power
level, the phone’s real rate of specific absorption whilst in
operation may be well below the maximum value.
A phone is designed to operate at different power levels
so that it only uses the power it needs to be connected
to the network.
In addition, all models of phone must undergo tests before
being marketed to ensure compliance with the European
R&TTE directive.
This directive publishes strict rules for guaranteeing the
safety of users and for preventing any risks to health.
The maximum SAR value tested on this device is 0.592W/
Kg. It complies with the rules on exposure to radio fre-
quencies when used in its normal position at the ear or at
a minimum distance of 1.5 cm from the body. The device
uses a high-quality network connection for transmitting
files, data and messages. On occasion, the transmission
of files or messages may be delayed until the connection
is available. When this is the case, be sure to follow the
instructions regarding the separation distance for es-
tablishing the transmission. If you use a case, belt-clip
or holder for carrying the phone, it must not contain any
metal and should be kept at a minimum distance of 1.5
cm from your body.
*The sAR limit for mobile devices is 2.0 watts / kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. sAR values
may vary according to the standards for reporting informa-
tion that are in force in different countries.
Tips for Reducing Exposure Levels
We recommend that you use your phone in good reception
conditions in order to reduce the amount of radiation re-
ceived. It is advisable to limit the amount of time you use
the phone in underground car parks and when travelling
by car or train, etc.
Reception conditions are indicated by the bars that are dis-
played on your phone : the more bars there are, the better
the reception quality.
We recommend that you use the hands-free kit to reduce
exposure to radiation.
To reduce the adverse effects of prolonged radiation ex-
posure, we advise teenagers to hold the phone away from
their lower abdomen, and that pregnant women hold the
phone at a distance from their stomach.
13. Only qualified service personnel should repair your de-
vice. If you give your device to non-qualified personnel for
repair, the phone will not be covered by WIkO’s warranty.
