1.4.2 SAR requirements specific to portable mobiles
Mobile phones, PDAs or other portable transmitters and receivers incorporating a GSM module
must be in accordance with the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy. This
requires the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable ALS3-US R3 based applications to be
evaluated and approved for compliance with national and/or international regulations.
Since the SAR value varies significantly with the individual product design manufacturers are
advised to submit their product for approval if designed for portable use. For US markets the
relevant directives are mentioned below. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the final
product to verify whether or not further standards, recommendations or directives are in force
outside these areas.

fields (EMFs) from mobile telecommunication equipment (MTE) in the
frequency range 30MHz - 6GHz
IMPORTANT:
Manufacturers of portable applications based on ALS3-US R3 modules are required to have
their final product certified and apply for their own FCC Grant and Industry Canada Certificate
related to the specific portable mobile.
