Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy
absorbed in the head of a user of a wireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring
and calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone
emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict
laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be
substantially less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a
variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone
design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each
phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs do not represent
a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a
substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values
between different model phones do not mean variations in safety. SAR
values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe for
use by the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the SCP-6400 are:
AMPS mode (Part 22) - Head: 0.93W/kg; Body-worn: 1.21W/kg
PCS mode (Part 24) - Head: 1.47W/kg; Body-worn: 1.27W/kg

Cautions
Any changes or modifications to your phone not expressly approved in this
document could void your warranty for this equipment, and void your
authority to operate this equipment. Only use approved batteries,
antennas and chargers. The use of any unauthorized accessories may be
dangerous and void the phone warranty if said accessories cause damage
or a defect to the phone.
Although your phone is quite sturdy, it is a complex piece of equipment
and can be broken. Avoid dropping, hitting, bending or sitting on it.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, Body-worn
operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that
have no metallic component in the assembly and that provide at least 1.8
cm separation between the device, including its antenna whether
extended or retracted, and the user’s body. Use of non-Sprint approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure requirements.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
