Code 6. 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 GSM
phone employs a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg*.
For body worn operation, this phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
when used with an accessory that contains
no metal and that position the antenna of the
GSM phone a minimum of 1.5cm from the body.
The SAR values of this GSM phone are 0.726
W/g (body) and 0.362 W/g (head). Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with the
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this
model device 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: NM8 HIMALAYAS. Additional information
on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be
found on the Cellular Telecommunications &
Internet Association (CTIA) web-site as http:
//www.devicefacts.net.
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
GSM phone used by the public is 1.6Watts/kg
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The
standard incorporates a substantial margin of
safety to give additional protection for the public
and to account for any variations in.
