Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio
waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the
U.S. Government. 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 to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. Because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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. Before a phone model
is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the 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 (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for
each model.
The highest SAR values are:
* Head: X.XX W/kg
* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): X.XX W/kg
