ICNIRP is a formally recognized non-governmental organization in Non-Ionising Radiation Protection for the World Health Organisation (WHO), the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the European Union (EU). For more information, visit the ICNIRP website at www.icnirp.de. Certification Information (SAR) THIS DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD. Your wireless device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is running, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields). Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE
4 (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the public. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when you use a wireless device. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the wireless device while operating can be well below the value. This is because the wireless device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. All models of Huawei's wireless device are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines such as European Council Recommendation and Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States). European Council Recommendation: Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested according to the technical standard-EN 50361 and not exceed the limit established by the European Council Recommendation: 1999/519/EC for safe exposure. The SAR limit adopted by the 1999/519/EC is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten gram of tissue. The highest SAR value for this device type when tested is 0.925 W/kg. [EN 50361 scope states "This basic standard applies to any electromagnetic field (EM) transmitting devices intended to be used with the radiating part of the equipment in close proximity to the human ear including mobile phones, cordless phones, etc. The frequency range is 300 MHz to 3 GHz. Therefore, the above text does not address primary use of the wireless device product.] Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States): Before a wireless device 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.
