Certification Information (SAR)
THIS DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.
Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is turned on, 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 (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 using
a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the
mobile phone while operating can be well below the value. This is
because the mobile phone is designed to use the minimum power
required to reach the network.
All models of Huawei’s mobile phone are designed to meet radio
frequency exposure guidelines. Before a phone model is available for
sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
20
does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (that is, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model. For body worn operation, this phone has
been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset
is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body with an accessory
that contains no metal part. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The SAR limit adopted by the USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value
reported to the FCC and IC for this device type when tested for use at
the ear is 1.523 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 0.403
W/kg.
The SAR limit adopted by the CNIRP is 2.0 W/kg over one gram of
tissue. The value guarantees a safe distance to protect mobile phone
users and the difference caused by measurement errors. Under
different test requirements and frequency, the value varies.
