energy by the human body
expressed in units of watts per
kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless phones to
comply with a safety limit of
1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6
W/kg). The FCC exposure limit
incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give
additional protection to the
public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
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.
This device was tested for
typical body-worn operations
with the back of the phone
kept 0.79 inches (2.0 cm)
between the user’s body and
the back of the phone. To
