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 of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guide-
lines 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 mea-
surement 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 opera-
ting positions specified 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 ac-
tual 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 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 go-
vernment-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performedin
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between the SAR levelsof various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe
exposure.
