2.2 Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
This device meets applicable international safety requirements for exposure to radio
waves. Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to
exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields)
recommended by international guidelines from the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP (International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection). The radio wave
exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR.
The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue and include
a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the
device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The
highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
Body SAR: 1.373 W/kg
During normal use, the SAR values for this device are usually well below the values
stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize
interference on the network, the output power of your mobile device
is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the
power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
