SAR Information
SA R Comp li an ce

Your device is designed not to exceed the limits of emission of radio waves
recommended by international guidelines.

SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) is the measurement of body -absorbed RF
quantity when the device is in use. SAR value is ascertained according to the
highest RF level generated during laboratory tests.

The SAR value of the device may depend on factors such as proximity to the
network tower, or use of accessories.

The SAR value of the device at the head and body are 1.22 W/kg and 1.11 W/kg
respectively averaged over 1 gm of human tissue.


Use a wireless hands-free system (headphone, headset) with a low power
Bluetooth emitter.

Keep your calls short and use SMS whenever more convenient. This advice
applies especially to children, adolescents and pregnant women.

Prefer to use your handset when the signal quality is good.

People having active medical implants should preferably keep the handset at
least 15 cm away from the implant.

Maintain a preferable distance of 15 mm from the device.
T h e F CC A d vi ce
Many people mistakenly assume that using a cell phone with a lower reported SAR
value necessarily decreases a user’s exposure to RF emissions, or is somehow “safer”
than using a cell phone with a high SAR value. While SAR values are an important tool
in judging the maximum possible exposure to RF energy from a particular model of cell
phone, a single SAR value does not provide sufficient information about the amount of
RF exposure under typical usage conditions to reliably compare individual handset
models.
Wor ld Healt h O r g an i zat i on (WHO ) A d vi ce
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug
Administration have stated that if people are concerned and want to reduce their
exposure they could use a hands-free device to keep the handset away from the head
and body during phone calls, or reduce the amount of time spent on the phone.
