• CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
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 accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as 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 (for example, at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model
phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear is 1.18 W/kg and when worn on
the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.96 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among
phone models, depending upon available enhancements and FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure 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 QMNRH-44.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
for use with an enhancement that contains no metal and that positions the handset a minimum
of 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body worn enhancement, and are not
holding the phone at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) from your
body when the phone is switched on.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/
kilogram (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. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the
network band. For SAR information in other regions please look under product information at:
