Certification information (SAR)

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by Industry Canada. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the
Industry Canada is 1.6 W/kg* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power
level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the phone while operating can
be well below 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 of the phone.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the
Canadian Standard must be shown. The highest SAR value for this model phone
when tested for use at the ear is 0.62 W/Kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide is 0.87 W/Kg.
