THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS
GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile phone is a radio
transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to
exceed the limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Australian Communications
Authority (ACA). These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population.
The guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by
independent scientific organisations
through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The
guidelines include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile
phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the ACA is 2.0 W/kg*
Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions with
the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR
is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR of the
phone while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is
because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so
as to use only the power required to
reach the network. In general, the
closer you are to a base station, the
lower the power output of the
phone.
Before a phone model is available for
sale to the public, compliance with
the Australian Standard must be
shown. The highest SAR value for
this model phone when tested for
use at the ear is 1.11W/kg. While
there may be differences between
the SAR levels of various phones and
at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for RF
exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 2.0 watts/
kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of body tissue. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any
variations in measurements. SAR
values may vary depending on
national reporting requirements and
the network band. For SAR
