5.5 RF Exposure Information(SAR)
This device meets the government‟s requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
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 1.6W/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, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for the model device as reported to the FCC when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is 1.03 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among device models,
depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements.)
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on
this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: WLPWM320.
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the handset a minimum of 0.5
cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines.
