Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Mobile

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information of Mobile
Phones
This model [SC-42A] mobile phone complies with the Japanese technical
regulations and the international guidelines regarding human exposure to
radio waves.
This mobile phone was designed in observance of the Japanese technical
regulations regarding exposure to radio waves (*1) and the limits
of exposure recommended in the international guidelines, which are
equivalent to each other. The international guidelines were set out by the
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP),
which is in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), and the
permissible limits include substantial safety margins designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health conditions.
The technical regulations and the international guidelines set out the
limits of exposure to radio waves as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR,
which is the value of absorbed energy in any 10 grams of human tissue
over a 6-minute period. The SAR limit for mobile phones is 2.0 W/kg
The highest SAR value for this mobile phone when tested for use near
the head is 0.840 W/kg (*2), and that when worn on the body is 1.016
W/kg (*3). There may be slight differences of the SAR values in individual
product, but they all satisfy the limit. The actual value of SAR of this
mobile phone while operating can be well below the indicated above. This
is due to automatic changes in the power level of the device to ensure it
only uses the minimum power required to access the network.
This mobile phone can be used in positions other than against your head.
By using accessories such as a belt clip holster that maintains a 1.5 cm
separation with no metal (parts) between it and the body, this mobile phone
is certified the compliance with the Japanese technical regulations and the
international guidelines.
The World Health Organization has stated that "a large number of studies
have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile
phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects
have been established as being caused by mobile phone use."
