tested frequency bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as 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 government-adopted requirement for safe exposure.
The tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR
value for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the
ear is 0.57 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is
1.17 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending
upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant
section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID PPINPL-2.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and that
positions the handset a minimum of 5/8 inch (1.5 cm) from the body. Use of
other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
If you do not use a body worn accessory, and are not holding the phone at the
ear, position the handset a minimum of 5/8 inch (1.5 cm) from your body when
the phone is switched on.
*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 substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
SAR values may vary depending on national reporting equirements and the
network band. For SAR information in other regions please look under product
information at www.nokia.com. For body worn operation, this phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the Nokia
accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories
may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
