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)
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 Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed 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 with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone
while operating can be well below the maximum value. Because the phone is
