Consumer Information onSAR
(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
Radio Frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part
of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population.
The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless
mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
