Precautions

• Observe all applicable laws and regulations restricting the use of mobile phones in specific situations and environments.
• Do not use your phone at a gas station or in any environment that may be explosive or contain explosive atmospheres, including fueling areas, below the decks of boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, or areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Obey all posted signs that instruct to turn off wireless devices such as mobile phones and other radio equipment. Turn off your mobile phone or wireless device when in an area where blasting is in progress or in areas where it is posted to turn off "two-way radio" or "electronic devices" to prevent potential hazards.
• Do not use your phone in operating rooms, emergency rooms, or intensive care units of hospitals. Always comply with all rules and regulations of hospitals and medical centers. If you have a medical device, consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if the phone may interfere with the operation of the medical device. 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 by not carrying the phone in a chest pocket. To avoid interference with medical equipment, do not use your phone near hearing aids, cochlear implants, or other similar devices.

EU Regulations

Declaration of Conformity RED

Xiaomi Communications Co., Ltd. hereby declares that this GSM / GPRS / EDGE / UMTS / LTE digital mobile phone with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 23028RN4DG complies with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive RED 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 (localized SAR of 10 grams for head and body, limit: 2.0 W/kg) specified in the Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC, ICNIRP provisions, and RED Directive (2014/53/UE).

During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands and was 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-worn 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 an RF exposure level that conforms to or is lower than the reported level. When attaching the device to your body, you should use a belt clip or holster that does not contain metal components and allows for a separation distance of at least 5 mm between the device and the body. RF exposure compliance with a metal-containing body-worn accessory has not been tested or certified, and the use of such an accessory should be avoided.

Certification Information (Highest SAR Level)

SAR Limit 10 g: 2.0 W/kg,

SAR Value: Head: 0.897 W/kg, Body: 0.997 W/kg (5 mm distance).

Legal Information

This device may be used in all EU member states. Observe national and local regulations in the country where the device is used. The usability of this device may be restricted depending on the network provider. Wi-Fi connectivity (including Wi-Fi frequency bands, Wi-Fi standards, and other features approved in the IEEE 802.11 standard specifications) may vary depending on regional availability and local network support. The feature may be added via OTA when and if applicable.

FCC Regulations

This mobile device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This mobile device 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 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 complies with 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 (SAR).

The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. For body-worn operation of the device, this device has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that does not contain metal and that positions the device a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Compliance with FCC RF exposure for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 1.5 cm between the unit and the human body. Any accessory used with this device for body-worn operation must maintain the device at a minimum distance of 1.5 cm from the body. FCC RF exposure compliance was not tested or certified with a metal-containing body-worn accessory, and the use of such an accessory should be avoided.

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 device limits.
