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 governmentadopted
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 values are:
* Head: 0.88 W/kg
* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 1.19 W/kg
(body 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
