96 - Specific Absorption Rate Data

Specific Absorption Rate Data

This model phone meets international standards for exposure

to radio waves

Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed

and manufactured not to exceed limits for exposure to radio

frequency (RF) energy. 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 organisations through

periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The

guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed to assure

the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of

measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.

Under the guidelines for your phone model, the SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg.*

Tests for SAR are conducted in accordance with CENELEC**

testing procedures using standard operating positions with the

phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested

frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest

certified power level, the actual SAR of the phone while operating

can be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone

is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the

power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are

to a base station, the lower the power output of the phone.

Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it is tested

to confirm compliance with the guidelines. The tests are performed

in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body)

that conform to a uniform testing methodology determined by an

expert standards body. The highest SAR value for this model

phone when tested for use at the ear is: 0.71 W/kg.***
