Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model device meets the government's requirements for
exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to Radio Frequency (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 devices 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 1.07W/kg (1g, 0mm) (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.
