■ Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed
the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP
and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP
guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR
level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is
designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount
changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network
base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the
device at the ear is 0.77W/kg.
Use of device accessories may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary
depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band.
Additional SAR information may be provided under product information at

Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio
waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry
Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of
tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product
certification for use at the ear is 1.24W/kg and when properly worn on the body is
0.51W/kg.
