All things pertaining to wireless and RF links

I am using an Xbee S1 for a remote device where it changes output pin states controlled from a central controller. It doesn't require any input.

After setting the desired pins (2 and 3) as high or low (nothing connected to it yet), the current that xbee drawing is about 40 micro amp after I put it to sleep.

From the datasheet I expected this current to be below 10 micro amp. Is there something I am doing wrong?
