Certification Information (SAR)
THIS DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.
Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels
of radio frequency energy (also known as radio
waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed
by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
Certification Information (SAR)
64
and IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the public.
The levels include a safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone.
The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual
SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be
well below the value. This is because the mobile
phone is designed to use the minimum power
required to reach the network.
All models of Huawei’s mobile phone are designed to
meet radio frequency exposure guidelines. Before a
phone model is available for sale to the public, it must
be tested according to the technical standard-EN
50361 and does not exceed the limit established by
the European Council Recommendation: 1999/519/
EC for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
using positions (that is, at the ear) as required by the
EN50361 for each model.
All models of Huaweii’s mobile phone are designed to
meet radio frequency exposure guidelines. Before a
phone model is available for sale to the public, it must
be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the governmentadopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (that is, at the
ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for
