Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of
Mobile Phones
This model (*****) mobile phone complies with Japanese
technical regulations and international guidelines regarding
exposure to radio waves.
This mobile phone w
as designed in obser
v
ance of Japanese
technical regulations regarding exposure to radio waves (*1) and
limits to exposure to radio waves recommended by a set of
equivalent international guidelines. This set of international
guidelines was set out by the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which is in
collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), and the
permissible limits include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health
condition.
The technical regulations and international guidelines set out limits
for radio waves as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which is
the value of absorbed energy in any 10 grams of tissue over a
6-minute period. The SAR limit for mobile phones is 2.0 W/kg. The
highest SAR value for this mobile phone when tested for use near
the head is x.xxxW/kg (*2) and when worn on the body is

the technical regulations and inter
national guidelines.
The World Health Organization has stated that “a large number of
studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess
whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no
adverse health effects have been established as being caused by
mobile phone use.”

Equipment Regulations).
● x.xxxW/kg (*3). There may be slight differences between the
SAR levels for each product, but they all satisfy the limit.
The actual SAR of this mobile phone while operating can be well
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to
the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum
required to reach the network. Therefore in general, the closer you
are to a base station, the lower the power output of the device.
