certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by 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 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of handheld
wireless phones not exceed 1.6 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 values are:
* Head: 0.42 W/kg
* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.15 W/kg
(body measurements differ among phone 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.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and
can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/
fccid/ after searching on FCC ID ZNFD851.
For more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65 at

the manufacturer of your phone.
