Overview
iPhone has been tested and meets applicable
limits for Radio Frequency (RF) exposure.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) refers to the rate at
which the body absorbs RF energy. Mobile phone
SAR limits are 1.6 watts per kilogram (over a
volume containing a mass of 1 gram of tissue) and
2.0 watts per kilogram (averaged over 10 grams of
tissue), depending on country. During testing,
iPhone radios are set to their highest transmission
levels and placed in positions that simulate use
against the head, with no separation, and near the
body, with 10 mm separation.
To reduce exposure to RF energy, decrease talk
time or use a hands-free option, such as the builtin speakerphone, the supplied headphones, or
other similar accessories.!Carry iPhone at least 10
mm away from your body to ensure exposure
levels remain at or below maximum levels. Avoid
cases with metal parts.
