Consumer Information on SAR (Specifi c
Absorption Rate)
This Model Phone Meets the Government’s
Requirements for Exposure to Radio
Waves. Your wireless phone is a radio
transmitter and receiver. It 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. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy
•
for the general population. The guidelines
are based on standards that were developed
by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
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/IC
is 1.6 W/kg*. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions specified
by the FCC with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all
