Certification information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio
waves.
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 exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or
SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0
watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of tissue.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions with the device transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The
actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the
maximum value because the device is designed to use only
the power required to reach the network. That amount
changes depending on a number of factors such as how
