Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the phone while operation can be
well below the maximum value. This is because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels
so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless
base station antenna, the lower the power output.

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. (Body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon
available accessories and FCC requirements). While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safety exposure.

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure require-
ments, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories
that maintain a 1.5 cm. separation distance between the
user's body and the back of the phone. The use of belt­clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain

metallic components in its assembly. The use of acces­sories that do not satisfy these requirements may not
comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver.
It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF)
energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. Those guidelines are consistent with the
safety standard previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:

• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
IEEE. C95.1-1992

• National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP). Report 86

• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996

• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6.

The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set
by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.*

* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public

is 1.6 watts/kg(w/kg) averaged over on gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for
the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
