Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are
based on the safety standards previously set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
IEEE. C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP). Report 86. 1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6.
The standards include a substantial safety margind
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and 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 is 1.6W/kg *.
*In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
m e a s u r e m e n t s .
