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 exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a

unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption

Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP

guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over

10 grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using

standard operating positions with the device

transmitting at its highest certified power level in all

tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an

operating device can be below the maximum value

because the device is designed to use only the power

required to reach the network. That amount changes

depending on a number of factors such as how close

you are to a network base station. The highest SAR

value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device

at the ear is 0.91 W/kg.
Use of device accessories may result in different SAR

values. SAR values may vary depending on national

reporting and testing requirements and the network

band. Additional SAR information may be provided

under product information at www.nokia.com.
Your mobile device is also designed to meet the

requirements for exposure to radio waves established

by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and

Industry Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of

1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The

highest SAR value reported under this standard during

product certification for use at the ear is 1.15 W/kg and

when properly worn on the body is 0.93 W/kg.
