The highest tested SAR value for this modem compliance against the standard is
0.866W/kg for use at the ear and 0.475W/kg for use closed to the body distance of
5mm. While there may be difference between the SAR levels on various modems and
at various positions, they all meet the relevant International guidelines and EU
requirement for RF (radio-waves) exposure.
For body-worn operation, the modem meets EU exposure guidelines provided that it is
used with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 1.5cm from the body.
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present scientific information
does not indicate the need for any special precautions for use of modems. If
individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF
exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using “hands-free” devices to keep Modems
away from the head and body (fact sheet n° 193). Additional information about
electromagnetic fields and public health are available on the following site:

Although no danger relating to the use of modem was ever proved, the World Health
Organization advises as a precautionary measure to use the modem with a good
level of network reception as indicated on the software display (4 to 5 bars). It is also
advised to keep the modem, during communications, away from the belly of
pregnant women and from the lower abdomen for teenagers.
The modem is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal operation, you should
avoid touching it or degrading it.

Do not allow the modem to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions
(moisture, humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc). The manufacturer’s
recommended operating temperature range is -10°C to +50°C
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in positions other than
against your ear. In such circumstances the device will be compliant with the guidelines
when used with HSPA Modem. If you are not using HSPA Modem ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone at least 2cm away from
the body.
