SAR: This mobile phone meets government requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the population. The guidelines were developed and confirmed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The highest tested SAR values for this mobile phone compliance against FCC standard limit 1.6 W/kg is 0.302 W/kg for body (based on 1.5 cm distance separation from body to the device) and 0.600 W/kg for head (while the phone touches ear).

Do not touch the antenna area when the phone is in use. Touching the antenna area affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a high power level than needed. 3

Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when exposed to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing video games. If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences, please consult with you doctor before playing video games on you phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone. (The flashing-light feature is not available on all products.)
