the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which
is the value of absorbed energy in any 10
grams of 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 at the ear is 0.67 W/kg.
There may be slight differences between the
SAR levels for each product, but they all
satisfy the limit.
The actual SAR of this mobile phone while
operating can be well below that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to
the power level of the device to ensure it only
uses the minimum required to reach the
network. Therefore in general, the closer you
are to a base station, the lower the power
output of the device.
This mobile phone can be used in positions
other than against your ear. This mobile
phone satisfies the international guidelines
when used with a carrying case or a
wearable accessory approved by NTT
DOCOMO or the manufacturer *
2
. In case you
are not using the approved accessory,
please use a product that does not contain
any metals, and one that positions the mobile
phone at least 1.5 cm away from your body.
The World Health Organization has stated
that present scientific information does not
indicate that there are harmful effects
attributed to the use of mobile devices. They
recommend that if you are worried about your
exposure then you can limit your usage or
simply use a hands-free kit to keep the
mobile device away from the head and body.
Please refer to the WHO website if you would
