Consumer Information on SAR

(Specific Absorption Rate)

This Model Phone Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your wireless phone is a radio

 

transmitter and receiver. It is

 

designed and manufactured not

 

to exceed the emission limits for

 

exposure to radiofrequency (RF)

 

energy set by the Federal

 

Communications Commission

S a

(FCC) of the U.S. Government.

These FCC exposure limits are

f e

derived from the

ty

recommendations of two expert

 

 

 

organizations, the National

 

 

Counsel on Radiation Protection

 

and Measurement (NCRP) and

 

the Institute of Electrical and

 

Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In

 

both cases, the

 

recommendations were

developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy.

The exposure Limit for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
