maximum value. This is because the 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.

This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits in ANSI/IEEE C95.
after searching on FCC ID: SRQ-Z852. For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 0.57 W/kg, for usage near the body is 1.11 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the government requirements. SAR compliance for body-worn operation is based on a separation distance of 15 mm between the unit and the human body.
be avoided. Hearing aid compatibility (HAC) regulations for mobile phones In 2003, the FCC adopted rules to make digital wireless telephones compatible with hearing aids and cochlear implants.
