Safety Guidelines
Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model phone meets the government’s
requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not
to exceed the emission limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
of the U.S. Government. These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile
phones 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.*
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level, the actual SAR level of
the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. Because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels
to use only the power required to reach the
network, in general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale
to the public, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at
the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for this phone when tested for use at the ear
is 0.29 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user’s manual, is
1.07 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ
among phones models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between
SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure.
