Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy
absorbed by the body when using a transceiver. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the transceiver while operating can
be well below this value. This is because the transceiver is designed to use the minimum power required
to reach the network.
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 phones, all Sony Ericsson
PC cards are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.
More information on radio frequency exposure and SAR can be found on:
www.sonyericsson.com.
Caution!
The PC Card has been tested for compliance with FCC / IC RF exposure limits in the laptop
computer(s) configurations with side PCMCIA representative of laptop computers with
substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics.
Always place the external antenna in the upright position (oriented vertically) when using the PC
Card in a notebook computer.
Note:
If this PC Card is intended for use in any other portable device, you are responsible for
separate approval to satisfy the SAR requirements of Part 2.1093 of FCC rules.
Personal medical devices
PC Cards may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers and other implanted equipment. If a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between the GC86 and the pacemaker, the risk of interference
is limited. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, immediately turn off
your GC86. Contact your cardiologist for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult your physician and the manufacturer of the device.
CHILDREN
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO PLAY WITH YOUR PC CARD OR ITS ANTENNA.
THEY COULD HURT THEMSELVES OR OTHERS, OR COULD ACCIDENTALLY DAMAGE
THE PC CARD OR ANTENNA. YOUR PC CARD OR ITS ANTENNA MAY CONTAIN SMALL
PARTS THAT COULD BE DETACHED AND CREATE A CHOKING HAZARD.
