Important Information
Latin & South America
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
information
The ST17a Series mobile phones have been designed to comply
with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves.
These requirements are based on scientific guidelines that include
safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised 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 safety chapter
in the User Guide.
SAR data information for residents in countries that have
adopted the SAR limit recommended by the International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which
is 2 W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue (for example
European Union, Japan, Brazil and New Zealand):
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested by
Sony Ericsson for use at the ear is 0.64 W/kg (10g).
