SAR INFORMATION148THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’SREQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designedand manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure toradiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal CommunicationsCommission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part ofcomprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energyfor the general population. The guidelines are based on standards thatwere developed by independent scientific organizations throughperiodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standardsinclude a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of allpersons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit ofmeasurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SARlimit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted with thephone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all testedfrequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highestcertified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operatingcan be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone isdesigned to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only thepower required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to awireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must betested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limitestablished by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure.The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear andworn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highestSAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.37W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is0.537W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). Whilethere may be differences between the SAR levels of various phonesand at various positions, they all meet the government requirement forsafe exposure.The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phonewith all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCCRF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on filewith the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section ofhttp://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on QMNRM-215.CH8
