The standards include a safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all
individuals, regardless of age and health. The
radio wave exposure guidelines employ a
unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR).Tests for SAR are
conducted using standardized methods with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all used frequency bands.
While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phone models, they are
all designed to meet the relevant guidelines
for exposure to radio waves. For more
information on SAR, please refer to the
important information chapter in the User
Guide.
The highest SAR value as reported to the
authorities for this phone model when tested
for use by the ear is 0.797 W/kg*, and when
worn on the body is 1.184 W/kg*. For body-
worn operation, this phone has been tested
and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Please use an accessory designated for this
product or an accessory which contains no
metal and which positions the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
For devices which include "WiFi hotspot"
functionality, SAR measurements for the
device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were
taken using a separation distance of 10 mm.
Use of third-party accessories may result in
different SAR levels than those reported.
** Before a phone model is available for sale
to the public in the US, it must be tested and
certified by the Federal Communications
Commission (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 (i.e., by the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this phone model with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure
guidelines. While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various phones, all
mobile phones granted an FCC equipment
authorization meet the government
requirement for safe exposure. SAR
information on this phone model is on file at
the FCC and can be found under the Display
Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/
fccid after searching on FCCID PY7PM-0440.
Additional information on SAR can be found
on the Mobile Manufacturers Forum EMF
website at http://www.emfexplained.info/.
