Sony Ericsson K530i User Manual page 52

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of radio frequency
energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile
phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest
certified power level in laboratory conditions,
but the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while
it is operating can be well below this value. This
is because the mobile phone is designed to use the
minimum power required to reach the network.
Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure
guidelines do not mean that there are variations
in safety. While there may be differences in SAR
levels among mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson
mobile phone models are designed to meet radio
frequency exposure guidelines.
For phones sold in the US, before a phone model
is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified by the Federal Communications
Commission (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 (that is, at the ear and worn
on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
For body-worn operation, this phone has been
tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines
when the handset is positioned a minimum of 15 mm
from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity
of the phone or when used with the original
Sony Ericsson accessory intended for this phone
and worn on the body. Use of other accessories
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information about this
mobile phone model is included with the material
accompanying this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information
on radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:
