The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*
Tests for SAR 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 output.
Before a phone model 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 U.S. government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed on position and locations (for
example, at the ear and worn on the body)
as required by FCC for each model. The
highest SAR value for this model phone as
reported to the FCC when tested for use at
the ear is 0.57 W/kg, and when worn on the
body, is 0.79 W/kg. (Body-worn
measurements differ among phone models,
depending upon available accessories and
FCC requirements). While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the U.S. government
requirement.
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 at
https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/reports/
GenericSearch.cfm after search on FCC ID
A98-QLC5698.
For body worn operation, this phone has
been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure
guidelines when used with an accessory
designated for this product or when used
with an accessory that contains no metal
and that positions the handset a minimum
of 1.0 cm from the body.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions
may result in violation of FCC RF Exposure
guidelines.

* In the United States, the SAR limit for wireless
mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/
kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue.
SAR values may vary depending upon national
reporting requirements and the network band.
