Certification Information (SAR) for Canada

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 Industry

Canada. 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 organizations 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 Industry Canada

is 1.6 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 Canadian

Standard must be shown. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for

use at the ear is 0.43 W/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.
