Consumer Information on SAR

(Specific 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
(FCC) 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 is 1.6W/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 tested frequency
bands. Although SAR is determined at
the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the
maximum value. Because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power
levels 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.
Before a phone model is available for
sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed the limit established by
the governmentadopted requirement
for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations
(e.g., at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for
each model.
