Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) information
This mobile phone model has been designed to comply with
applicable safety requirement for exposure to radio waves. These
requirements are based on scientific guidelines that include safety
margins designed to assure this safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
• The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with
the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
used frequency bands.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant
guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
• SAR data information for residents in countries/regions that have
adopted the SAR limit recommended by the international
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP),
which is 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue (for
example European Union, Japan, Brazil and New Zealand):
• The highest SAR value for this model phone for use at the ear is
0.802 W/kg (10g).
• SAR data information for residents in countries/regions that have
adopted the SAR limit recommended by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.5 W/kg averaged
over one (1) gram of tissue (for example USA, Canada, Australia
and Taiwan).
