SAR – A101
European Union – RTTE
THIS PANASONIC PHONE (MODEL EB-A101) MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy recommended by The Council of the European Union.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organisations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit recommended by The Council of the European Union is 2.0 W/kg*.
Tests for SAR have been conducted using standard operating positions 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 base station antenna, the lower
the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European R&TTE directive
must be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the protection of the health and the
safety for the user and any other person. The SAR value for this model phone, when tested for use at the
ear, for compliance against the standard was 0.737 W/kg. While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
*The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams
of tissue. The limit 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.
