Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) certification information
Your device conforms to European Union (EU) standards that limit
human exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy emitted by radio and
telecommunications equipment. These standards prevent the sale of
mobile devices that exceed a maximum exposure level (known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR) of 2.0 watts per kilogram.
During testing, the maximum SAR recorded for this model was 0.414
watts per kilogram when held at the ear and 0.882 watts per kilogram
when worn on the body.
*
In normal use, the actual SAR is likely to be
much lower, as the phone has been designed to emit only the RF
energy necessary to transmit a signal to the nearest base station. By
automatically emitting lower levels when possible, your phone
reduces your overall exposure to RF energy.The World Health
Organization (WHO) has stated that the scientific information available
at present does not suggest a need for users to take any special
precautions to prevent RF exposure when using mobile phones.
The WHO notes that if you desire to reduce your exposure you can do
so by limiting the time you use your phone or use a "hands-free"
device to keep the phone away from your head and body.
*. When used with accessories that contain no metal and provide at
least 1.5cm separation between the device (including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted) and the wearer's body.
