SAR Data
Specific Absorption Rate Data
This model meets international guidelines for
exposure to radio waves.
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines were
developed by the independent scientific
organization ICNIRP and include safety margins
designed to assure the protection of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The ICNIRP
SAR limit for mobiles devices used by the general
public is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this
device when tested at the ear was 0.62 W/kg.

As
mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can
be used in other positions, such as on the body as
described in this user guide.
2
In this case, the
highest tested SAR value is 0.65 W/kg.
1
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device
while operating is typically below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
power level of the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum level required to reach the network.
While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the governmental requirements for
safe exposure. Please note that improvements to
this product model could cause differences in the
SAR value for later products; in all cases, products
are designed to be within the guidelines.
The World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of
mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce
your exposure then you can do so by limiting the
length of calls or using a “hands-free” device to
keep the mobile phone away from the head and
body.
