SAR tests are conducted using standard operating 
positions accepted by the FCC with the phone 
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all 
tested frequency bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to 
operate at multiple power levels so as 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 new model phone is available for sale to the 
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it 
does not exceed the exposure limit established by the 
FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in 
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the 
body) as required by the FCC. For body worn operation, 
this phone has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure 
guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no 
metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm 
from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure 
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for 
this mobile phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated 
as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. 
The maximum SAR values for this model phone as 
reported to the FCC are:
