More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from
universities, government health agencies and industries
developed this updated standard after reviewing the
available body of research. In 1993, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated
standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted
hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE
standard and the guidelines published by the National
Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if
you wear a handset on your body, use a carrier-supplied or
carrier-approved carrying case, holster or other body-worn
accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure
the antenna is at least
0.6 inch (1.5 centimeters)
from
your body when transmitting. Use of non-approved
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.

website at fcc.gov.
Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Phones
The SAR value corresponds to the relative amount of RF
energy absorbed into the head of a user of a wireless
handset.
The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive
testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not
represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone
models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory
settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can
be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC.
This is because of a variety of factors including its
proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and
other factors. What is important to remember is that each
phone meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SARs
do not represent a variation in safety.
