Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Cell Phones V31 0.521 This model SHL25 cell phone complies with Japanese technical regulations for exposure to radio waves and international guidelines on radio wave protection. This cell phone has been designed in observance of the Japanese technical regulations regarding exposure to radio waves (*1) and limits to exposure to radio waves recommended by equivalent international guidelines. These international guidelines were set out by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which is in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), and the permissible limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health condition. The Japanese technical regulations and international guidelines define the limits using a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), which represents the average amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the human body. The SAR limit for cell phones is 2.0 W/kg. The highest SAR value for this cell phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.484 W/kg, and when worn on the body, is 0.426 0.508 W/kg(*2). There may be slight differences in SAR levels among individual products, but they all satisfy the limit. The actual SAR of this cell phone while talking on the phone can be well below that indicated above. This is due to the cell phone being designed to only output the minimum power required to communicate with a base station. Therefore in general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the cell phone. This cell phone can be used in positions other than against your ear. Use a carrying case or similar accessory that holds the phone at least 1.5 cm separated from the body and ensure no metal parts are located between you and the cell phone. Under these conditions, this cell phone satisfies Japanese technical regulations and international guidelines for radio wave protection. The World Health Organization has stated that a large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile phone use. If you would like to know more detailed information, please refer to the WHO website.

It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health. The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear is 0.496 W/kg* and when worn on the body is 0.365 W/kg*. For body-worn operation, this mobile device has been tested and meets the RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory containing no metal and positioning the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines. As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting power the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the network. The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or using a hands-free device to keep the mobile phone away from the head.
* The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for testing. 26 FCC Notice
