SAR INFORMATION
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 radiofrequency(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 is 1.6 W/kg. *
Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
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 (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model modem when tested for use near the body,
as described in this user guide, is 0.597 W/Kg . While there may be
