EU Regulations

Radio Equipment Directive - Declaration of Conformity

Xiaomi Communications Co., Ltd. hereby declares that this GSM / GPRS / EDGE / UMTS / LTE digital mobile phone with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 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

Radio Frequency Exposure Information (SAR)

This device complies with the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits for the general population/uncontrolled exposure (localized SAR of 10g for head and trunk, limit: 2.0 W/kg) as specified in Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC, ICNIRP guidelines and RED Directive (Directive 2014/53/EU).

During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure during use, with the head with no separation and 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 that the RF exposure level is in line with the reported level or below it. When attaching the device to a body-worn accessory, use a belt clip or holster that does not contain metal components and allows for a minimum separation of 5 mm between the device and the body. RF exposure compliance has not been tested or certified with any metal-containing body-worn accessory and the use of such body-worn accessories should be avoided.

Certification Information (Highest SAR)

SAR limit for 10g: 2.0 W/Kg, SAR value: Head: 0.897 W/Kg, Body: 0.997 W/Kg (distance: 5mm).

Legal Information

This device may be used in all EU member states. Observe national and local regulations where the device is used. 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 specified 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 applicable.

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into 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.

Radio Frequency 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. This device has been tested for body-worn operation and complies with FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that does not contain metal and positions the device at least 1.5 cm from the body. Compliance with RF exposure in any body-worn accessory that contains metal has not been tested and certified and the use of such body-worn accessories should be avoided. Any accessory used with this device must keep the device at least 1.5 cm away 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.
