Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
3
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection),
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of
radio wave exposure for the general population. All
Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to operate
within these stringent levels. The levels include a safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health, and to account for any
variations in measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. The
SAR value is determined at the highest certified power
level in laboratory conditions, but 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 decrease.
Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure
guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety.
While there may be differences in SAR levels among
mobile phone models, all mobile phone models must be
designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines. More information on radio frequency exposure and SAR
can be found on: www.ericsson.com/health.
* Examples of radio-frequency exposure guidelines and
standards that Ericsson mobile phone models are
designed to conform to:
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), “Guidelines for
limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic,
and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)”, Health
Physics, vol. 74, pp 494-522, April 1998.
• 99/519/EC, “Council Recommendation of
12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the
general public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to
300 GHz)”, Official Journal of the European
Communities, 1999.
• IEEE C95.1-1991, “Safety levels with respect to
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz”, The Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE).
• FCC Report and Order, ET Docket 93-62, FCC
96-326, Federal Communications Commission
(FCC), August 1996.
