This Model Meets International Guidelines For Exposure To Radio Waves - Sony ST23a Information

English
This model meets international
guidelines for exposure to radio waves
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves
recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines
were developed by the independent scientific organization
ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the
protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and
meets RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory
that contains no metal and that positions the handset a
minimum of 15 mm from the body. Use of other accessories
may not ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile
devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device
when tested at the ear was 0.87 W/kg (10g)*. As mobile
devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other
positions, such as on the body. In the case where the phone is
worn directly on the body, the highest tested SAR value is
1.10 W/kg (10g)*.
As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest
transmitting power the actual SAR of this device while
operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due
to automatic changes to the power level of the device to
ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the
network.
The WHO (World Health Organization) has stated that
current scientific information does not indicate the need for
special precautions for the use of mobile phones. However, if
individual users are concerned, they may choose to limit
exposure to themselves and to their children, by either limiting
the length of calls, or by using headsets or "hands-free"
devices to keep the phone away from their body and head.
