Consumer Information on
SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
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 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
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 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/IC is 1.6 W/kg*. Tests for
SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all
tested frequency bands.
Although 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.
Because the phone is designed
to operate at multiple power
levels to use only the power
required to reach the network,
in general, the closer you are to
a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
