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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified by the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established
by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations(e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR values of this
model phone as reported to FCC are:
GSM850
♦
Head: 0.438 W/kg
♦
Body: 0.765 W/kg
GSM1900
♦
Head: 0.740 W/kg
♦
Body: 0.600 W/kg
WLAN
♦
Head: 0.282 W/kg
♦
Body: 0.113 W/kg
Body-worn operations are restricted to Samsung-supplied, approved or
non-Samsung designated accessories that have no metal and must
provide at least 1.5cm separation between the device, including its antenna
*. In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) aver-
aged 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 measure-
ments.
