Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification Information
Your wireless mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure l imits for Radio
Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U. S. Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the recommendations of two expert organizations: The National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed
by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to
the biological effects of RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless devices to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
The FCC SAR limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the mobile device transmitting at its hig hest 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 mobile
device while operating can be well below the maximum reported value. This is because the mobile device 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 mobile device.
Before a new model mobile device is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the SAR
limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model mobile device are performed in positions and locations (e.g. near the body) as required by the
FCC.
By typical operations, this mobile device has been tested and meets FCC SAR guidelines.Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance
with FCC RF exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this mobile device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. This mobile device has a FCC ID number: A3LSCHI925 and the specific SAR
levels for this mobile can be found at the following FCC website:
