CE SAR Compliance
This device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the limitation of exposure of the general public to
electromagnetic fields by way of health protection.
The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These
recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientific organizations through regular
and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. The unit of measurement for the European Council's
recommended limit for mobile devices is the "Specific Absorption Rate" (SAR), and the SAR limit is 2.0 W/ kg
averaged over 10 gram of body tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP exposure guidelines and the
European Standard EN 62311 and EN 62209-2, for use with dedicated accessories. Use of other accessories
which contain metals may not ensure compliance with ICNIRP exposure guidelines.
SAR is measured with the device at a separation of 1.5 cm to the body, while transmitting at the highest
certified output power level in all frequency bands of the mobile device.
The maximum SAR value for each frequency band is listed below:
Band Position SAR10g(W/kg)
