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 phone when tested for
use at the ear is
0.655W/Kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user guide, is
0.423W/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
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: PRMA18 Additional information on Specific
Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at

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.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations. To
comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 15mm 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.
