(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue and allows
for testing and other tolerances. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account
for any variations in measurements and during
production.
** The value stated is for the samples tested, and
applies to the GSM 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands.
Your phone may contain other bands that allow it to
operate in other regions and complies with specific
absorption rate (SAR) limits, applicable in those
regions.
Global SAR Statement
Mobile Manufacturers Forum statement:
Understanding SAR
To communicate with the network, mobile phones
emit low levels of radio waves (also known as
radiofrequency or 'RF' energy) when being used.
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive guidelines, developed by
independent scientific organizations, governing the
exposure to RF energy. Mobile phones are designed
to operate within these stringent limits.
What is SAR?
SAR stands for Specific Absorption Rate which is the
unit of measurement for the amount of RF energy
absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest
certified power level in laboratory conditions, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below this value. This is because the phone is
designed to use the minimum power required to
reach the network. Therefore, the closer you are to a
base station, the more likely it is that the actual SAR
level will be lower.
Does a lower SAR mean that a phone is
safer?
No. Variations in SAR do not mean that there are
variations in safety. While there may be differences
in SAR levels among phone models, all mobile
phones must meet RF exposure guidelines.
Where can I get the SAR values for my
phone?
SAR information for new model phones will be
included with the materials that come with the
mobile phone. In addition, this information will be
available from the website of your mobile phone
manufacturer.
