SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of
absorption of RF energy by the human
body expressed in units of watts per
kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless
phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC
exposure limit incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional
protection to the public and to account for
any variations in measurements.
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.
This device was tested for typical body-
worn operations with the back of the
phone kept 0.79 inches (2.0 cm) between
the user’s body and the back of the phone.
To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0.79 inches (2.0 cm) must be
maintained between the user s body and
the back of the phone. Third-party belt-
clips, holsters, and similar accessories
containing metallic components should not
be used. Body-worn accessories that
cannot maintain 0.79 inches (2.0 cm)
separation distance between the user's
body and the back of the phone, and have
not been tested for typical body-worn
operations may not comply with FCC RF
exposure limits and should be avoided.
