In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for
mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
** This paragraph is only applicable to authorities and
customers in the United States.
Radio Frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
When your phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned on, it
emits low levels of radio frequency energy. International
safety guidelines have been developed through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These
guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave
exposure. The guidelines include a safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all persons and to account for any
variations in measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure radio
frequency energy absorbed by the body when using
a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the
highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but
because the phone is designed to use the minimum power
necessary to access the chosen network, the actual SAR
level can be well below this value. There is no proof of
difference in safety based on difference in SAR value.
Products with radio transmitters sold in the US must be
certified by the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC). When required, tests are performed when the
phone is placed at the ear and when worn on the body.
For body-worn operation, the phone has been tested when
positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any
metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when properly
used with an appropriate Sony Ericsson accessory and
worn on the body. Use of the phone other than as tested
may impact SAR and result in non-compliance with such RF
exposure limits.
