RF Exposure
General Statement on RF energy
Your phone contains a transmitter and a receiver. When
it is ON, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you
communicate with your phone, the system handling
your call controls the power level at which your phone
transmits.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to
radio waves recommended by international guidelines.
These guidelines were developed by the independent
scientific organisation ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for
mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for
this device when tested at the ear was 0.656 W/kg
(NFC)/(non-NFC) and when tested near the body (at a
distance of 15mm) the highest SAR value was 0.829
W/kg (NFC) / (non-NFC). As mobile devices offer a
range of functions, they can be used in other positions,
such as on the body as described in this user guide.
As SAR is measured utilising the device’s highest
transmitting power, the actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that indicated above. This is
due to automatic changes to the power level of the
device to ensure it only uses the minimum power
required to communicate with the network.
