■ Certification Information (SAR)
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy adopted by the
governments of the USA through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
and Canada through Industry Canada (IC). These limits 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 guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit adopted by the USA and Canada
is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public to account
for any variations in measurements. 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
well 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 reported to the FCC and IC for this device type when tested
for use at the ear is 1.27W/kg, and when properly work on the body is 0.78W/kg. SAR
information on file with the FCC can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid
after searching on FCC ID QMNRM-19. SAR values
reported in other countries may vary depending on differences in reporting and
testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be
provided under product information at www.nokia.com.
