THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
The Series mobile phones have been designed to
comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure
to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter
and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits* of
exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
governmental authorities. These limits establish
permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on standards that
were developed by international scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a safety margin designed
to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of age
and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized
methods with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all used frequency bands. While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phone models, they are all designed to meet the
relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. For more
information on SAR, please refer to the safe and efficient
use chapter in the User Guide.
The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for
this phone model when tested for use by the ear is
W/kg*, and when worn on the body is W/kg*
for speech and W/kg* for data calls. Body worn
measurements are made while the phone is in use and
worn on the body with a Sony Ericsson accessory
supplied with or designated for use with this phone. It is
therefore recommended that only Ericsson and
Sony Ericsson original accessories be used in
conjunction with Sony Ericsson phones.
**Before a phone model is available for sale to the public
in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted
requirement for safe exposure*. The tests are performed
in positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC
has granted an Equipment Authorization for this phone
model with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in
compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC
equipment authorization meet the government
requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this
phone model is on file at the FCC and can be found
under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
Additional information on SAR can be
found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) website at http://www.phonefacts.net.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for
mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram
(W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard
incorporates a margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
