Certification information (SAR)
Your model wireless phone meets the governmental requirements for exposure to
radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured to not exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. overnment and by the Canadian
regulatory authorities. 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 organizations through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed for the safety of all persons, regardless of age or health, and to account
for any variations in measurements. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The IEEE SAR limit set
by the FCC and by the Canadian regulatory authorities is 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg),
averaged over one gram of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using procedures accepted
by the FCC and by Industry Canada with the mobile device transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequencies. Although the SAR is determined at the
highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the mobile device while operating can
be below the maximum value. This is because the mobile device 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, the lower the power output.
Before a mobile device is available for sale to the public in the U.S. and Canada, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC and Industry Canada that it does not exceed the
limit established by each government for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) submitted to the FCC and
available for review by Industry Canada. The highest SAR value for this mobile device
when tested for use at the ear is 850/1900: 1.3
9
0 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as
described in this guide, is 850/1900: 1.470 W/kg. Body-worn measurements can differ,
depending upon available accessories and regulatory requirements. The SAR information
includes the testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range
