Nokia Lumia 928: Safety and Warranty 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 off your device in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, for example near gas pumps at service stations. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or death. Observe restrictions in fuel service stations, storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include areas where you would be advised to turn off your vehicle engine, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities and where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. You should check with the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) to determine if this device can be safely used in their vicinity. Certification information (SAR) This mobile device meets 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 exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. 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 actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. Chapter 18 The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the ear is 0.88 W/kg. Use of device accessories may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product information at www.nokia.com. Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product certification for use at the ear is 1.44 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 1.38 W/kg. 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 cellular telephones and health. Nokia encourages you to visit these websites for updated information. You can access the FDA website a, http://www.fda.gov/Radiation-EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/HomeBusinessandEntertainment/ CellPhones/default.htm and the FCC website at http://transition.fcc. gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html. Additional health-related information is available from the World Health Organization (WHO) at http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/ fs193/en/ and The National Cancer Institute ("NCI") at http://www. cancer.gov/ncicancerbulletin/NCI_Cancer_Bulletin_092308/page7. 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. Safety and texting while driving Safety should be every driver's first priority. Drivers must obey all local laws that may include restrictions on the use of cellular telephones or accessories while driving. If use is legal, always keep your hands free 65
