Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves recommended
by international guidelines. These guidelines
were developed by the independent scientific
organization ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest
SAR value for this device when tested at the
head was 0.274 W/kg*, and when tested at the
body was 0.983 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer
a range of functions, they can be used in other
positions, such as on the body as described in
the user manual**.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device
while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses
the minimum power required to communicate
with the network.
** Please see body worn operation in the user
manual.
