*2 Regarding the method of measuring SAR
when using mobile phones in positions
other than against the ear, international
standards (IEC62209-2) were set in March
2010. On the other hand, technical
regulation is currently being deliberated on
by national council. (As of October, 2011)
Radio Wave Exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Information
Important Information United States
THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT'S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO
WAVES.
The SO-02F 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
important information 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 1.01W/kg*, and when
worn on the body is 1.01W/kg*. For body-
worn operation, this phone has been tested
and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Please use an accessory designated for this
product or an accessory which contains no
metal and which positions the handset a
minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
For devices which include "WiFi hotspot"
functionality, SAR measurements for the
device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were
taken using a separation distance of 10 mm.
