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 1.110 W/kg and when worn on the body,
as described in this user guide, is 0.975 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. 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
BEJLX5450. Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website
at http://www.wow-com.com.
* 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.

(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 1.6W/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.
