10.2. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification
Information
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure
to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines.
The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands.
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above.
This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the
operating power of your device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the
call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Organizations such as the World Health Organization and the US Food and Drug Administration
have suggested that if people are concerned and want to reduce their exposure, they could use a
hands-free accessory to keep the wireless device away from the head and body during use, or
reduce the amount of time spent using the device.
