Specific Absorption Rate Data - Motorola 60g User Manual

Specific Absorption Rate
Data
This model phone meets the government's
requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission for the United States and by
Health Canada for Canada. 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 or 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 and by Health Canada is 1.6
1
W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada 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.
