Specific Absorption Rate Data - Motorola C210 Instruction Manual

Specific Absorption Rate Data

This model phone meets the international standards for exposure to
radio waves.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the international limit for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy. This limit is part of comprehensive guidelines and
establishes 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 guidelines 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. Under the
1
guidelines for your phone model, the SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg. Tests for
SAR are 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 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, the lower the
power output of the phone.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it is tested to
confirm compliance with the guidelines. The tests are performed in
positions and locations that conform to a uniform testing methodology
determined by an expert standards body. The highest SAR value for this
2
model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.77 W/kg.
While there
may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at
various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for safe
exposure.
