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 of the mobile phone. Before
a mobile phone model is available for sale to the
public, compliance with national regulations and
standards must be shown. The highest SAR value
for this model mobile phone when tested is 1.38 W/
Kg for use at the ear and 0.97 W/Kg for use close to
the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various mobile phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement
for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the phone
has been tested when positioned a minimum of
15mm from the body without any metal parts in the
vicinity of the phone or when properly used with an
appropriate accessory and worn on 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 15 mm. Use of other accessories may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines. Additional information on SAR can be
found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) Web site: http://www.phonefacts.

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers
that present scientific information does not indicate
the need for any special precautions for use of
mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they
might choose to limit their own or their children's
57
RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or
using "hands-free" devices to keep mobile phones
away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).
