• Assess the traffic before dialing, or place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic.
Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. Never dial, send SMS text
messages, or enter other text while you are driving. Driving while operating a
mobile phone is distracting and could cause serious injury or death.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving .
If necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.
Driving in rain, sleet, snow, ice, fog, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes, look up phone numbers, or perform any other activities that
require your attention while driving .
Jotting down a to-do list or flipping through your address book takes attention away
from your primary responsibility, driving safely.
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting .
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations
that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.
Specific Absorption Rate Data (SAR)
This model wireless phone meets the government's requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government and by the
Canadian regulatory authorities.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC and by
the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR
level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only
the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the U.S. and Canada, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed
the limit established by each government for safe exposure. The tests are performed
in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) reported to the FCC
and available for review by Industry Canada.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.445
W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.483 W/kg.
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.
