Appendix A: CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)140Appendix A: CERTIFICATIONINFORMATION (SAR)THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’SREQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufactured not to exceed the emissionlimits for exposure to radio frequency(RF) energy set bythe Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.Government. These limits are part of comprehensiveguidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy forthe general population. The guidelines are based on safetystandards that were developed by independent scientificorganizations through periodic and thorough evaluation ofscientific studies. The standards include a substantialsafety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employsa unit of measurement known as the Specific AbsorptionRate (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. SARTests are conducted using standard operating positionsaccepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at itshighest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.Although the SAR is determined at the highest certifiedpower level, the actual SAR level of the phone whileoperating can be well below the maximum value. This isbecause the phone is designed to operate at multiple powerlevels so as to use only the power required to reach thenetwork. In general, the closer you are to a wireless basestation antenna, the lower the power output.Before a new model phone is available for sale to thepublic, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
