Safety Guidelines The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although 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. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.23 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user's manual, is 0.43 W/ kg.

The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. 95

Safety Guidelines
The exposure standard for wireless mobile
phones employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions specified by the FCC with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although 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. Because the phone is
designed to operate at multiple power levels
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.
Before a phone model is available for sale
to the public, it must be tested and certified
to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at
the ear and worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for
this phone when tested for use at the ear
is 1.23 W/kg and when worn on the body, as
described in this user’s manual, is 0.43 W/
kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among
phones models, depending upon available
accessories and FCC requirements.) While
there may be differences between SAR levels
of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for
safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model
phone is on file with the FCC and can be found
under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC
ID BEJP506.
Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association
(CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR
limit for mobile phones used by the public
is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates
a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to
account for any variations in measurements.
