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 radiofrequency (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 1.6W/kg. * Tests for SAR are 

conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its 

highest certified power level, the actual SAR level 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 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 

ist 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 value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 

0.791mW

/g and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.

08

mW/g, (Body-worn 

measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). 

[Labeling Committee note : if applicable, if body-worn SARs are required]. While there may be 

differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the 

government requirement for safe exposure. 

 

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels 

evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model phone 

is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Gant section of 

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

 

after searching on FCC ID BEJLX360.
