While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RFexposure 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: 2ABFV-TOUCH
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. * In the United States
and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram
of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-stantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and
to account for any variations in measurements.
The radiated output power of this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device
should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact is minimized during normal operation.
The exposure standard for wireless devices 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 using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC with the device 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 device while operating
can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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. To avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human
proximity to the antenna should be minimized.
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 10mm must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna.
Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components.
Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure requirements and
should be avoided. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
