Appendix
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
of Cell Phones
This model KYV46 mobile phone complies with
Japanese technical regulations and international
guidelines regarding exposure to radio waves.
This cell phone has been designed in observance
of the Japanese technical regulations
(*1)
regarding
exposure to radio waves and limits to exposure
to radio waves recommended by equivalent
international guidelines. These international
guidelines were set out by the International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP), which is in collaboration with the World
Health Organization (WHO), and the permissible
limits include a substantial safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health condition.
The Japanese technical regulations and
international guidelines define the limits using
a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR), which represents the
average amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the human body. The SAR limit for cell
phones is 2.0 W/kg. The highest SAR value for
this cell phone when tested for use at the ear is
0.607W/kg
(*2)
. The highest SAR value for this cell
phone when tested for use on the body is 0.793W/
kg
(*2)
. There may be slight differences in SAR levels
among individual products, but they all satisfy the
limit.
The actual SAR of this cell phone while talking
on the phone can be well below that indicated
above. This is due to the cell phone being designed
to only output the minimum power required to
communicate with a base station. Therefore in
general, the closer you are to a base station, the
lower the power output of the cell phone is.
This cell phone can be used in positions other than
against your head. Use a carrying case or similar
accessory that holds the phone at least 1.5 cm
separated from the body and ensure no metal
parts are located between you and the cell phone.
Under these conditions, this cell phone satisfies
Japanese technical regulations and international
guidelines for radio wave protection.
The World Health Organization has stated that "a
large number of studies have been performed over
the last two decades to assess whether mobile
phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no
adverse health effects have been established as
being caused by mobile phone use".
