SAR Information

What is SAR?
SAR stands for Specific Absorption Rate which is the unit of measurement for the amount of RF energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below this value.
This is because the phone is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.
Therefore, the closer you are to a base station, the more likely it is that the actual SAR level will be lower.
What is SAR-Tick ?

The SAR-Tick label is part of an effort by the Mobile & Wireless Forum to help consumers learn more about national and international exposure standards for their mobile phone or wireless device.

- THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
Limb SAR: 2.664 W/Kg Front of Face SAR: 0.870 W/Kg (Head SAR Limit is also applicable for the front of face SAR)
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Front of Face SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 1.0 cm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during Front of Face operation, the device should be positioned at least this distance away from your Face.

While mobile communications are certainly transforming our lives with the enormous benefits that they provide, we recognize that some people would like to learn more about the health and safety aspects of these technologies. Therefore the MWF (Mobile & Wireless Forum) has recently released a video on the issue and you can download a copy from here.
