Consumer Information on SAR
This Model Phone Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your
wireless 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 set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guide-
lines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a sub-
stantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
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 trans-
mitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is deter-
mined 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 model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.3 W/kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.0 W/kg (body-worn measure-
ments differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC require-
ments). 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 BEJLG100C. 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.
