SAR Cercaon Informaon

This mobile phone model meets the guidelines for exposure to radio waves.

Your mobile phone is a radio transmier and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves

recommended by internaonal guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scienc organizaon ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protecon of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specic Absorpon Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 was/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of ssue.

Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operang posions with the device transming at its highest cered power level in all tested frequency bands. The

actual SAR level of an operang device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base staon.

The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of this device at the ear is 0.63W/Kg.

When using the earphone, reduce the volume to protect your ears.
