THIS PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on standards
that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
These guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed
to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 gram of body
tissue, as determined set by public authorities such as Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the US and Innovation,
Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED). Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the
phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands.
This device is complied with SAR in ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and
has been tested in accordance with the measurement methods
and procedures specified in IEEE1528.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under
the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
searching on FCC ID: 2ACCJH131
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be
well below the 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 of the phone.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested is 0.73
W/Kg for use at the ear and 0.86 W/Kg for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement for RF exposure.
