The guidelines use a unit of
measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the
highest SAR value for this device when
tested at the ear was 0.662 W/kg*. As
mobile devices offer a range of
functions, they can be used in other
positions, such as on the body as
described in this user guide**. In this
case, the highest tested SAR value is
1.779 W/kg*.
As SAR is measured utilizing the
devices highest transmitting power the
actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that
indicated above. This is due to
automatic changes to the power level of
the device to ensure it only uses the
minimum level required to reach the
network.
The World Health Organization has
stated that present scientific information
does not indicate the need for any
special precautions for the use of mobile
devices. They note that if you want to
