! Safety Precautions

Observe all applicable laws and regulations that restrict the use of mobile phones in specific circumstances and environments. Do not use your phone at fuel stations or in other potentially explosive atmospheres, including fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices, such as your mobile phone or other radio equipment. Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in an explosive area or in areas where the display of "two-way radio" or "electronic equipment" is required to prevent potential hazards. Do not use your phone in operating rooms, emergency rooms, or intensive care units. Always comply with all hospital and medical center rules and regulations. If you have a medical device, consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine whether your phone may interfere with the device's operation. To avoid potential interference with a pacemaker, always maintain a minimum distance of 15 cm between your mobile phone and your pacemaker. This can be achieved by using the phone on the ear opposite the pacemaker and not carrying the phone in a breast pocket. To avoid interference with medical equipment, do not place your phone near a hearing aid, cochlear implant, or other similar devices. Comply with all airplane safety regulations and turn off your phone on board the aircraft when required to do so. When driving a vehicle, use your phone in accordance with applicable traffic laws and regulations.

• To avoid electric shock, do not use your phone outdoors in stormy weather.
• Do not use your phone to make calls while it is charging.
• Do not use your phone in high humidity locations, such as a bathroom. This may result in electric shock, injury, fire, and charger damage.

European Union Regulations

EU Declaration of Conformity

Xiaomi Communications Co., Ltd. hereby declares that this mobile phone is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU. The full text of the EU declaration of conformity is available at the following internet address: www.mi.com/en/certification

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This device complies with the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits for the general population/uncontrolled exposure (10-gram SAR for head and body, limit: 2.0 W/kg) specified in Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC, ICNIRP guidelines, and RED (Directive 2014/53/EU). During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level across all tested frequency bands and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure during head use without separation and near the body with a 5 mm separation. SAR compliance for body operation is based on a separation distance of 5 mm between the unit and the human body. This device should be worn at least 5 mm away from the body to ensure RF exposure levels comply with the reported level or are lower. When carrying the device near your body, use a belt clip or holster that does not contain metal parts and allows for a separation of at least 5 mm between the device and the body. RF exposure compliance has not been tested or certified with any accessory containing metal and worn on the body, and the use of such an accessory should be avoided. SAR information for the highest value: SAR limit 10g: 2.0 W/Kg, SAR value: Head: 0.897 W/Kg, Body: 0.997 W/Kg (5 mm distance).

This phone has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

This device meets government requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy. The exposure standard for wireless devices 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. For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and is positioned at a minimum separation of 1.5 cm from the body. FCC RF exposure compliance for body-worn accessories containing metal parts has not been tested and certified, and the use of such accessories should be avoided. Any accessory used with this device for body-worn operation must keep the device a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. FCC Note: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with FCC Class B limits.
