SAR Information Statement
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These
limits are part of 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 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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output. Before a phone 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
33
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 model phone when tested for use
at the ear is 0.523W/Kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 1.05W/Kg(Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements). While there
may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an
Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC
RFexposure guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone 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: QRP-AZUMIQ15 Additional information on
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA)
web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States
and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the
public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-stantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
