Health and Safety Information
SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) information
Your Obi phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It has been
designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for
exposure to radio waves. The radio wave exposure guidelines
employ a unit of measurement called specific absorption rate
(SAR). The recommended SAR limit for any mobile handset
is 1.6 w/kg averaged over a 6 minute period and taken over a
volume containing a mass 10g of human tissue.
Maximum SAR for this device is as mentioned:
Head SAR: 0.365 Watts/Kg for 10g
Body worn SAR: 0.857 Watts/kg for 10g
Head SAR: 0.488 Watt/Kg for 1g
Body worn SAR: 1.24 Watt/Kg for 1g
• Use your Obi phone when the signal strength is good. Keep your
calls short, use a headset or send a text message. This advice
applies especially to children, adolescents and pregnant women.
• If you are using a Bluetooth headset device, please make sure it
has a low power emitter.
