Sar (European Union) - Siemens CL50 User Manual

THIS MODEL OF PHONE MEETS
THE EU REQUIREMENTS FOR EX-
POSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone CL50 is a radio
transmitter and receiver. It is de-
signed and manufactured not to ex-
ceed the limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy recommend-
ed by The Council of the European
Union. These limits are part of com-
prehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines
were developed by independent sci-
entific organisations through period-
ic and thorough evaluation of scien-
tific studies. The limits 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 measure-
ment known as the Specific Absorp-
tion Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit rec-
ommended by The Council of the
European Union is 2.0 W/kg.* Tests
for SAR have been conducted using
standard operating positions with
the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested fre-
quency 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. In general, the
closer you are to a base station an-
tenna, the lower the power output.

Before a phone model is available for
sale to the public, compliance with
the European R&TTE directive must
be shown. This directive includes as
one essential requirement the pro-
tection of the health and the safety
for the user and any other person.
The highest SAR value for this mod-
el phone CL50 when tested for com-
pliance against the standard was
0.88 W/kg. While there may be dif-
ferences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various posi-
tions, they all meet the EU require-
ments for RF exposure.
_______________________________
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the
public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over ten grams of tissue. The limit incorporates
a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any
variations in measurements. SAR values may
vary depending on national reporting require-
ments and the network band. For SAR informa-
tion in other regions please look under product
