SAR
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by
international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
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
0.626 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 0.814 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.
