About SAR of L-03F

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Mobile Terminals

This model L-03F device complies with Japanese technical regulations and international guidelines regarding exposure to radio waves.

This device was designed in observance of Japanese technical regulations regarding exposure to radio waves* and limits to exposure to radio waves recommended by a set of equivalent international guidelines. This set of international guidelines was 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 technical regulations and international guidelines set out limits for radio waves as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which is the value of absorbed energy in any 10 grams of tissue over a 6-minute period. The SAR limit for mobile terminals is 2.0 W/kg. The highest SAR value for this device when tested for intended use described in the instruction manual is 0.439 W/kg. There may be slight differences between the SAR levels for each product, but they all satisfy the limit.

The actual SAR of this device while operating can be well below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum required to reach the network. Therefore in general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the device.

During communication, please keep the device farther than 1.5 cm away from your body without including any metals. This device satisfies the technical regulations and international guidelines.

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."
