“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 value for this model phone when
tested for use at the ear is 0.98 W/kg and when worn
on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.28
W/kg (body-worn 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.
