THIS MODEL MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR 
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is 
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves 
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines 
were developed by the independent scientific organization 
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the 
protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific 
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The ICNIRP SAR limit for mobiles 
devices used by the general public is 2 W/kg and the highest 
SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 
0.80 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they 
can be used in other positions, such as on the body as described 
in this user guide**. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 
0.51 W/kg*.
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting 
power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically 
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to 
the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum 
level required to reach the network.

SAR Data
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of 
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the 
governmental requirements for safe exposure. Please note that 
improvements to this product model could cause differences in 
the SAR value for later products; in all cases, products are 
designed to be within the guidelines.
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific 
information does not indicate the need for any special 
precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you 
want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the 
length of calls or using a 'hands-free' device to keep the mobile 
phone away from the head and body.

* The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for 
testing.  The limit incorporates a substantial margin for safety to give 
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in 
measurements. Additional related information includes the Motorola 
testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty 
range for this product.
