What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless phones in the United States. Before a wireless phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.”
call to call, depending on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity of the phone to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free devices. 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 government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is
0.55
0.XX W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is X.XX W/kg
1.18
SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest power level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of handheld wireless phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless phone while operating can be less than the reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value may vary from

(body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be

For more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65 at http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_ Technology/Documents/bulletins or visit the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association website at http://www.ctia.org/ consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You may also wish to contact the manufacturer of your phone.

Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to minimize your RF exposure. You can,
against the waist or other part of the body
during use, then that part of the body will
absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones
marketed in the U.S. are required to meet
safety requirements regardless of whether
they are used against the head or against
the body. Either configuration should result
in compliance with the safety limit.” Also,
if you use your wireless phone while in a
car, you can use a phone with an antenna
on the outside of the vehicle. You should
also read and follow your wireless phone
manufacturer’s instructions for the safe
operation of your phone.
Do wireless phones pose any
special risks to children?
of course, reduce your talk time. You can place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone, which is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On
The FDA/FCC website states that “the
scientific evidence does not show a
danger to users of wireless communication
devices, including children.” The FDA/FCC
website further states that “some groups
sponsored by other national governments
have advised that children be discouraged
from using wireless phones at all”. For
example, the Stewart Report from the
United Kingdom [“UK”] made such a
recommendation in December 2000. In
