Appendix A: CERTIFICATION
INFORMATION (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
guidelines are based on safety standards that
were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The standards
include a substantial 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(SAR). The SAR limit set
by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. SAR Tests are conducted
using standard operating positions accepted by
the FCC 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 level 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
wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.

Before a new model phone 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 values for this model phone as
reported to the FCC are Head:1.17W/Kg(CDMA),
1.17(PCS), Body- worn:0.779W/Kg(CDMA),
0.367(PCS).
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure 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
A3LSCHI830.
