Specific Absorption Rate (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 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 body was 0.986 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**.
As SAR is measured utilizing the device’s 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
power required to communicate with the network.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with EN 50360, EN
62311, EN 62209-1, EN 62209-2.
