THIS MOBILE PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S

REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

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

and manufactured not to exceed the emission 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 organizations through periodic

and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines include

a substantial safety margin designed to ensure 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. The SAR

limit set by public authorities such as the Federal Communications

Commission of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada,

is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR

are conducted using standard operating positions with the mobile

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 level of the mobile phone while operating can be

well below the maximum value. This is because the mobile 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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output of

the mobile phone. Before a mobile phone model is available for sale

to the public, compliance with national regulations and standards

must be shown.

The highest SAR value for this model mobile phone when tested is

0.97 W/Kg for use at the ear and 1.31 W/Kg for use close to the body.

While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various

mobile phones and at various positions, they all meet the government

requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the mobile

phone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used

with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from

the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with

FCC RF exposure guidelines.
