SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions specified 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 of
the phone.
Before a new model phone 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. While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement.
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 printed in the label on the phone.
For Body Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure require-
ments, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories
that maintain a 1.5 cm. separation distance between the
user's body and the back of the phone, including the
antenna. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar
accessories should not contain metallic components
in its assembly. The use of accessories that do not
Tsatisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC
RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
Non compliance with the above conditions may violate
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
