INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE /
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)
THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE LI-
MITS FOR PROTECTION OF THE
HEALTH OF THE PUBLIC FROM THE
EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE TO ELECTRO-
MAGNETIC FIELDS
Your mobile phone is a radio trans-
mitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio frequen-
cy (RF) energy recommended by in-
ternational guidelines from the In-
ternational Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection (IC-
NIRP). These limits are part of com-
prehensive guidelines for the protec-
tion of the public and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the
population. The guidelines were
confirmed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific stu-
dies*. The limits include a substanti-
al safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure limit for mobile pho-
nes employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Ra-
te, or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the
international guidelines is 2.0 W/
kg**. Tests for SAR are conducted in
all frequency bands using standard
operating positions with the phone
transmitting at its highest power le-
vel. The actual SAR level of the pho-
ne during operation can be well be-
low 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, the
lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for this model
phone when tested for use at the ear
is
0.64W/kg***.

While there may be differences bet-
ween the SAR levels of various pho-
nes and at various positions, they all
meet the international guidelines for
safe RF exposure.
* The World Health Organization
(WHO, CH-1211 Geneva 27, Switzer-
land) states that present scientific in-
formation does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for
use of mobile phones.
