RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This mobile phone meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government.
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 1.6W/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, the lower the power
output.
The highest SAR value for the model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at
the ear is 1.38 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.434
W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available
enhancements and FCC requirements.)
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

For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other enhancements may not ensure compliance
