SAR Information Statement
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 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the 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. 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 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 value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is
1.186
W/Kg
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
0.768
W/Kg
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements). The maximum scaled SAR in
hotspot mode is
0.797
W/Kg
.
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 exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section of http://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on
FCC ID: 2AG5L-FTU152B
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-
ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States
and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-
stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of
10 mm
must be
maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna.
