Specic Absorption Rate (SAR) certication

information

THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR

EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES

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

not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency

electromagneticelds)recommendedbyinternationalguidelines.The

guidelinesweredevelopedbyanindependentscienticorganisation

(ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure

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

The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known

astheSpecicAbsorptionRate,orSAR.TheSARlimitformobile

devices is 2.0 W/kg.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with

thedevicetransmittingatitshighestcertiedpowerlevelinalltested

frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines

for this device model are:

Maximum SAR for this model and conditions under which it was

recorded

Head SAR 0.726 W/kg

Body-worn SAR 0.247 W/kg

During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well

below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system

efciencyandtominimiseinterferenceonthenetwork,theoperating

power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full power

is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the

lower its SAR value.

A body-worn SAR test has been performed on this device with an

approved accessory or at a separation distance of 1.5 cm. To meet RF

exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, the device must be

used with the approved accessory or positioned at least 1.5 cm away

from the body. If you use an unapproved accessory, ensure that the

accessory does not contain any metal components and that it positions

the device at least 1.5 cm away from the body.

Organisations such as the World Health Organisation and the US Food

and Drug Administration have suggested that if people are concerned

and want to reduce their exposure, they could use a hands-free

accessory to keep the wireless device away from the head and body

during use, or reduce the amount of time spent using the device.

device with the model number
