Emergency Calls; Personal Medical Devices - Sony Ericsson C702 User Manual

Sony Ericsson service partners should remove or
replace built-in batteries. Use of batteries that are
not Sony Ericsson branded may pose increased
safety risks.

Personal medical devices

Phones may affect implanted medical equipment.
Reduce risk of interference by keeping a minimum
distance of 6 inches (15 cm) between the phone and
the device. Use the phone at your right ear. Do not
carry the phone in your breast pocket. Turn off the
phone if you suspect interference. For all medical
devices, consult a physician and the manufacturer.
Driving
Some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of phones
in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an external
antenna supports the installation. Check with your
vehicle manufacturer's representative to be sure that
your phone or Bluetooth handsfree will not affect the
electronic systems in your vehicle. Full attention
should be given to driving at all times and local laws
and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices
while driving must be observed.
GPS/Location based functions
Some products provide GPS/Location based
functions. Location determining functionality is
provided "As is" and "With all faults". Sony Ericsson
does not make any representation or warranty as to
the accuracy of such location information.
Use of location-based information by the device may
not be uninterrupted or error free and may additionally
be dependent on network service availability. Please
note that functionality may be reduced or prevented
in certain environments such as building interiors or
areas adjacent to buildings.
Caution: Do not use GPS functionality in a manner
which causes distraction from driving.

Emergency calls

Calls cannot be guaranteed under all conditions.
Never rely solely upon phones for essential
communications. Calls may not be possible in all
areas, on all networks, or when certain network
services and/or phone features are used.
Antenna
Use of antenna devices not marketed by
Sony Ericsson could damage your phone, reduce
performance, and produce SAR levels above the
established limits. Do not cover the antenna with
your hand as this affects call quality, power levels
and can shorten talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
When your phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned
on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy.
International safety guidelines have been developed
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of
radio wave exposure. The guidelines include a safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all persons
and to account for any variations in measurements.
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure
radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when
using a phone. The SAR value is determined at the
highest certified power level in laboratory conditions,
but because the phone is designed to use the
minimum power necessary to access the chosen
network, the actual SAR level can be well below this
value. There is no proof of difference in safety based
on difference in SAR value.
Products with radio transmitters sold in the US
must be certified by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). When required, tests are
performed when the phone is placed at the ear and
when worn on the body. For body-worn operation,
the phone has been tested when positioned
a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any
