Specific Absorption Rate information
This phone is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the United States, Industry Canada of
Canada.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that
simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no separation, and
near the body with the separation of 10 mm. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
22
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 a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of
measurement is known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg, and 1.6W/kg by Industry Canada.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled
exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and Canada RSS 102, and had
been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures
specified in OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, and Canada RSS 102. This
device has been tested, and meets the FCC, IC RF exposure guidelines
when tested with the device directly contacted to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: YCNA706.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head
is 0.79 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.49 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements.
23
SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation
distance of 10 mm between the unit and the human body. Carry this device
at least 10 mm away from your body to ensure RF exposure level
compliant or lower to the reported level. To support body-worn operation,
choose the belt clips or holsters, which do not contain metallic components,
to maintain a separation of 10 mm between this device and your body.
RF exposure compliance with any body-worn accessory, which contains
metal, was not tested and certified, and use such body-worn accessory
should be avoided.
