See 'General recycling statement' and subsequent sections for additional information. General recycling statement Lenovo encourages owners of information technology (IT) equipment to responsibly recycle their equipment when it is no longer needed. Lenovo offers a variety of programmes and services to assist equipment owners in recycling their IT products. For information on recycling Lenovo products, go to http://www.lenovo.com/recycling. Important battery and WEEE information Batteries and electrical and electronic equipment marked with the symbol of a crossed-out wheeled bin may not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste. Batteries and waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) shall be treated separately using the collection framework available to customers for the return, recycling and treatment of batteries and WEEE. When possible, remove and isolate batteries from WEEE prior to placing WEEE in the waste collection stream. Batteries are to be collected separately using the framework available for the return, recycling and treatment of batteries and accumulators. Country-specific information is available at: http://www.lenovo.com/recycling Recycling information for India Recycling and disposal information for India is available at: http://www.lenovo.com/social_responsibility/us/en/sustainability/ptb_india.html Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) European Union Lenovo products sold in the European Union on or after 3 January 2013 meet the requirements of Directive 2011/65/EU on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment ('RoHS recast' or 'RoHS 2'). For more information about Lenovo progress on RoHS, go to: http://www.lenovo.com/social_responsibility/us/en/RoHS_Communication.pdf India RoHS-compliant as per E-Waste (Management) Rules. Vietnam Lenovo products sold in Vietnam, on or after 23 September 2011, meet the requirements of the Vietnam Circular 30/2011/TT-BCT ('Vietnam RoHS'). Specific Absorption Rate information This mobile device meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The India SAR limit for mobile devices is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram 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 highest SAR value for your Lenovo device when tested for use at the head and body is outlined as follows: Position | The highest SAR value | Regulation Head | 0.561 W/Kg | India 1 g SAR Limit (1.6 W/kg) Body-worn | 1.380 W/Kg | India 1 g SAR Limit (1.6 W/kg) During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimise interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile devices is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value. To meet RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device must be positioned at least 1.0 cm away from your body. Precautionary guidelines for mobile users Mobile users are advised to take precautionary measures while using a mobile handset, such as: 1. Keep distance - Hold the mobile phone away from your body to the extent possible. 2. Use a headset (wired or Bluetooth) to keep the handset away from your head. 3. Do not press the phone handset against your head. Radio Frequency (RF) energy is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source – being very close greatly increases energy absorption. 4. Limit the length of mobile calls. 5. Use text as compared to voice wherever possible. 6. Put the mobile phone on speaker mode. 7. If the radio signal is weak, a mobile phone will increase its transmission power. Find a strong signal and avoid movement – Use your phone where reception is good. 8. Metal and water are good conductors of radio waves so avoid using a mobile phone while wearing metal-framed glasses or when your hair is wet. 9. Let the call connect before you put the handset to your ear or start speaking and listening – A mobile phone first makes the communication at higher power and then reduces the power to an adequate level. More power is radiated while the call is connecting. 10.If you have a choice, use a landline (wired) phone, not a mobile phone. 11. When your phone is ON, don't carry it in your chest/breast or trouser pocket. When a mobile phone is ON, it automatically transmits at high power every one or two minutes to check (poll) the network. 12. Reduce mobile phone use by children as a younger person will likely have a longer lifetime exposure to radiation from mobile phones. 13. People with active medical implants should preferably keep the mobile phone at least 15 cm away from the implant. Learn more Where is my legal, safety and regulatory information?
