menu item or send an email.

all users, regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of
measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR value
is determined at the highest certified power level in
laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the device
when being operated can be well below the value. This is
because the device is designed to use the minimum power
required to reach the network.
The SAR limit adopted by 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 1.12 W/kg, and when
properly worn on the body is 0.7 W/kg.
The SAR limit also adopted by Europe is 2.0 W/kg averaged
over 10 grams of tissue. The highest SAR value for this
device type when tested at the ear is 0.669 W/kg, and when
properly worn on the body is 0.741 W/kg.
Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar
accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and must
provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device and the user’s
body.
