(Specific Absorption Rate)
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 guidelines 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
measurement 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 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.
The highest SAR value for this
model phone when tested for use at
the ear is 1.26 W/kg and when worn
on the body, as described in this
user guide, is 0.367 W/kg (body-
worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC
