Information on health
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
published statements and questions and answers concerning mobile phones and health. HMD Global
encourages you to visit these websites for updated information. You can access the FDA website at
www.fda.gov/Radiation-emittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/
HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/default.htm and the FCC website at www.fcc.gov/
engineering-technology/electromagnetic-compatibility-division/radio-frequency-safety/faq/rf-safety.
Additional health-related information is available from the World Health Organization (WHO) at
www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/en/ and from The National Cancer Institute ("NCI") at
www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/radiation/cell-phones-fact-sheet. In the event
that you are concerned about possible health effects, the FDA suggests that you limit your own or your
children's radio frequency (RF) exposure by limiting the length of calls or by using handsfree devices.
Hearing
WARNING: When you use the headset, your ability to hear outside sounds may be affected. Do not use
the headset where it can endanger your safety.
Some wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids.
Ve h i cl e s
Radio signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in vehicles. For
more info, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle or its equipment.
Only authorized personnel should install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation may be dangerous and
invalidate your warranty. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as
the device, its parts, or accessories. Do not place your device or accessories in the air bag deployment
area.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch your device off in potentially explosive environments, such as near gas stations. Sparks may cause
an explosion or fire resulting in injury or death. Note restrictions in areas with fuel; chemical plants; or
where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive environment may not be
clearly marked. These usually are areas where you are advised to switch your engine off, below deck on
boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, and where the air contains chemicals or particles. Check with
the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) if this device can
be safely used in their vicinity.
Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves as set forth by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). Refer to the following.
FCC RF Exposure Information
Your handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by
independent scientific organization through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health. The exposure standard for wireless handsets employs a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The tests are performed
in positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model handset as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is
0.45 W/kg, and when worn on the body in a holder or carry case, is 1.27 W/kg.
Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the handset kept 1.0
cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that
maintain a 1.0 cm separation distance between the user’s body and the handset. The use of belt clips,
holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements,
and should be avoided. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model handset with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on
this model handset is on file with the FCC and can be found under the FCC ID Search section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/ after searching on FCC ID 2AJOTTA-1153.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov/general/radio-frequency-safety-0.
To send data or messages, a good connection to the network is needed. Sending may be delayed until
such a connection is available. Follow the separation distance instructions until the sending is finished.
