Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio
frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international
guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent
scientific organisation (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
for mobile devices is 2 W/kg for Head SAR and Body-worn SAR,
and 4 W/kg for Limb SAR.
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 highest SAR values under the
ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under
which it was recorded
Head SAR
LTE Band 38 +
Wi-Fi 2.4GHz
1.22 W/kg
Body-worn SAR
(5 mm)
GSM 1800MHz +
Wi-Fi 2.4GHz
1.35 W/kg
Limb SAR (0 mm)
GSM 1800MHz +
Wi-Fi 2.4GHz
2.92 W/kg
During use, the actual SAR values for this phone are usually well
below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of
system efficiency and to minimise interference on the network,
the operating power of your phone is automatically decreased
when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power
output of the phone, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation
distance of 5 mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-
worn operation, the phone should be positioned at least this
distance away from the body.
If you are not using an approved accessory ensure that whatever
product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the
phone the indicated distance away from the body.
Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the
US Food and Drug Administration have stated that if people are
concerned and want to reduce their exposure they could use a
hands-free device to keep the phone away from the head and
body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent
on the phone.

Your phone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal
operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used
in positions other than against your ear. In such circumstances
the phone will be compliant with the guidelines when used with
a headset or USB data cable. If you are using another accessory
ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and
that it positions the phone at least 5 mm away from the body.
