Warnings

SAR Certification information (Specific Absorption Rate)

The device is compliant to European Union (EU) standards that limit human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and telecommunications equipment. These standards prohibit the sale of mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as SAR) of 2.0 W/kg.

During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was equal to 0.737 W / kg. During normal use, the actual SAR level can 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.

Warning symbol with a triangle containing a stylized 'e' and sound waves (no text or numbers)

To avoid damage to your hearing, please do not listen at high volume for a long time.
