THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE FCC'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 limits for exposure
to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC). 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 and Health Canada is 1.6 W/kg (*). Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC 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
RF limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (i.e., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for these model phones as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the ear and when worn on the
body are (measured at a distance of 0.98 inches (2.5 cm)):
(*) In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
