Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure
guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety.
While there may be differences in SAR levels among
mobile phone models, all mobile phone models must be
designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information for this mobile
phone model is included with the material that comes
with this mobile phone. This information is also available
on www.SonyEricssonMobile.com/.
More information on radio frequency exposure and
SAR can be found on: www.SonyEricssonMobile.com/.

Protection (ICNIRP), “Guidelines for limiting exposure to
time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic
fields (up to 300 GHz)”, Health Physics, vol. 74, pp 494-
522, April 1998.

DRIVING
Please check if local laws and/or regulations, in the
country/state where you are, restrict the use of mobile
phones while driving. Law in many countries/states
requires drivers to use a Hands Free solution. Sony
Ericsson recommends that you use Ericsson or Sony
Ericsson Hands Free solutions intended for use with your
mobile phone only.
Always give full attention to driving and pull off the
road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in
motor vehicles such as car stereo, safety equipment etc.
In addition, some vehicle manufacturers do not allow use
of mobile phones in their vehicles, unless a Hands Free
kit with an external antenna supports the installation.
Check with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to
be sure that your mobile phone will not affect the
electronic systems in your vehicle.
