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 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the
device transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR
is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the device while operating
can be well below the maximum value. Because
the device is designed to operate at multiple power
levels 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 device 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 (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this device when worn
on the body, as described in this user guide,
is 1.02 W/kg. (body-worn measurements differ
among device models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements). While there
may be differences between SAR levels of various
devices and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model device 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 ZNFV510. Additional information on Specific
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org/.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit
for mobile device used by the public is 1.6 watts/
kg (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.
