Specific Absorption Rate Information
International standards This Mobile Phone Meets The International
Recommendations For Exposure To Radio Waves Your mobile phone is a radio
transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy defined by international
standards. These recommendations have been established by the International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and, the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) that forecast a substantial safety
margin for assuring the protection of all persons, regardless of age and
health. The exposure recommendations for mobile phones use a measurement unit
known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit recommended by the
ICNIRP for the mobile phones used by the general public is I.6W/kg averaged
over one gram of tissue by IEEE Std 1528 for the head. Tests for SAR have been
conducted using recommended operating positions with the mobile 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 levels of the mobile phone while operating are generally below
the maximum SAR 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 base station antenna, the lower
the power output. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the international
protection standards for exposure to radio waves. For this device, the highest
reported SAR value for usage against the head is 1. 282W/kg. SAR is measured
against the head while transmitting at the highest certified output power
level in all frequency bands of the mobile device. For limiting the radio
waves exposure, it is recommended to reduce the mobile phone call duration or
to use a headset. The purpose of those precautions is to take the mobile phone
away from the head.
