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)
Safety	energy set by the Federal
	Communications Commission
	(FCC) of the U.S. Government.
	These FCC exposure limits are
	derived from the
	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

100developed 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.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC
