to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is
2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when
tested at the ear was 1.58 W/kg*. As mobile devices offer a
range of functions, they can be used in other positions,
such as on the body as described in this user guide**.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's highest transmitting
power, the actual SAR of this device while operating is
typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic
changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only
uses the minimum power required to communicate with
the network.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with IEC standard
PT62209-1.
