Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure and SAR

This device meets international guidelines for exposure to radio waves. Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufactured not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation recommended by international
guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of the comprehensive guidelines and establish the permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough  evaluation of scientific studies. The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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 base station, the lower the power output of the device. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. The SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is 2.0 w/kg (watts per kilogram) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. The highest SAR Value – 1.265 w/kg.
