FCC - SAR 3European Union - SAR SAR (FCC) This Model phone meets the FCC Requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your Mobile Phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy recommended by the United of States. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and established permitted levels of RF energy for the general public. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organizations through the evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standards for mobile phones employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended by FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR have been conducted using normal operating conditions with the phone transmitting at the highest certified power in all tested frequency bands. This is because the phone 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 the station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with FCC must be shown. One of the essential requirements of this directive is the protection of the health and safety for the user and any other person. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for compliance against the standard is 0.62 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the FCC requirement for RF exposure. The SAR limit for mobile phones for public use is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
