Safety Guidelines
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 1.34 W/kg and when worn on
the body, as described in this user’s manual, is 1.41
W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ amongphone
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.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section
of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC
ID BEJC1300I.

(SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for
mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The
standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
