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 W/kg.  
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.688 W/  
kg. In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be much lower, as the device  
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 device reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.  
Allow only qualified personnel to service your device  
Allowing unqualified personnel to service your device may result in  
damage to your device and will void your manufacturer’s warranty.  
Handle SIM cards or memory cards with care  
Do not remove a card while the device is transferring or accessing
