the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a

Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a

measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy

in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the

phone transmitting at its highest power level in

all tested frequency bands. Since 199, the FCC

has required that the SAR of handheld wireless

phones not exceed 1. watts per kilogram,

averaged over one gram of tissue.

Although the SAR is determined at the highest

power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless

phone while operating can be less than the

reported SAR value. This is because the SAR

value may vary from call to call, depending

on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the

proximity of the phone to the body while in use,

and the use of hands-free devices. 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 model phone when

tested for use at the ear is 0.71 W/kg and when

worn on the body, as described in this user guide,

is 1.37 W/kg (body-worn measurements differ
