RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) EXPOSURE AND SAR Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields). Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations*, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. All Sony Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to operate within these stringent levels. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating can be well below this value. This is because the mobile phone is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. Therefore, the closer you are to a base station, the more likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease. 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.SonyEricsson.com/. More information on radio frequency exposure and SAR can be found on: www.SonyEricsson.com/. 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 92 Additional information This is the Internet version of the user's guide. © Print only for private use.
