SAR – International (ICNIRP)
INFORMATION ON RF
EXPOSURE/SPECIFIC ABSORPTION
RATE (SAR)
This mobile phone complies with the
limit values for protecting the health
of the public from the effects of
exposure to electromagnetic fields
when it is operated in the customary
position held against the user’s ear
or with the display facing the user’s
body or held at a minimum distance
of 1.5 cm from the user’s body.
Your mobile phone is a radio trans-
mitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio fre-
quency (RF) energy recommended
by international guidelines from the
International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP). These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines for the
protection of the public and estab-
lish permitted levels of RF energy for
the population. The guidelines were
confirmed by independent scientific
organisations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific
studies*. The limits include a sub-
stantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure limit for mobile
phones employs a unit of measure-
ment known as the Specific Absorp-
tion Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
stated in the international guidelines
is 2.0 W/kg**. Tests for SAR are con-
ducted in all frequency bands using
standard operating positions with
the phone transmitting at its highest
power level. The actual SAR level of
the phone during operation 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 base station, the
lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for this model
phone when tested for use at the ear
is
0.34 W/kg***

While there may be differences
between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions,
they all meet the international
guidelines for safe RF exposure.
* The World Health Organization (WHO, CH-
1211 Geneva 27, Switzerland) states that
present scientific information does not indi-
cate the need for any special precautions for
use of mobile phones.
