Regulatory Information
The following topics provide important regulatory information.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) forWireless Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amountof RF energy absorbed into the head of a
user of awireless handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of anextensive testing, measuring and
calculationprocess. It does not represent how much RF thephone emits. All phone models are
tested attheir highest value in strict laboratory settings.But when in operation, the SAR of a
phone canbe substantially less than the level reported tothe FCC. This is because of a variety of
factorsincluding its proximity to a base station antenna,phone design and other factors. What is
importantto remember is that each phone meets strictfederal guidelines. Variations in SARs do
notrepresent a variation in safety.
All phones must meet the federal standard, whichincorporates a substantial margin of safety.
Asstated above, variations in SAR values betweendifferent model phones do not mean
variationsin safety. SAR values at or below the federalstandard of 1.6 W/kg are considered safe
for useby the public.
The highest reported SAR values of the ALCATELONETOUCH ELEVATE are:
Head: 1.06W/kg (1g)
Body-worn: 1.39 W/kg (1g)
For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a
minimum of 1.0 cm from the user's body.
FCC Radio Frequency Emission
This phone meets the FCC Radio FrequencyEmission Guidelines.
FCC ID number:2ACCJB001
More information on the phone's SAR can befound from the following FCC website:
