> 1.3.2 | SAR Requirements Specific to Portable Mobiles

> Mobile phones, PDAs or other portable transmitters and receivers incorporating a GSM module must be in accordance with the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy. This requires the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable TC65 based applications to be evaluated and approved for compliance with national and/or international regulations.
> Since the SAR value varies significantly with the individual product design manufacturers are advised to submit their product for approval if designed for portable use. For European and US markets the relevant directives are mentioned below. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the final product to verify whether or not further standards, recommendations or directives are in force outside these areas.

> IMPORTANT:
> Manufacturers of portable applications based on TC65 modules are required to have their final product certified and apply for their own FCC Grant and Industry Canada Certificate related to the specific portable mobile. See also Section 10.2.
