European Rf Exposure Information - SoftBank 930CA User Manual

General Notes
SoftBank s Body SAR Policy
'
* Body SAR: The SAR value at the maximum transmission power when continuously talking with handset placed on the body and using
earphone-microphone.
**Specific Absorption Rate (SAR): The value measured when having talked continuously for 6 minutes.
***Placement on the body: Measurements are taken with the rear of handset facing the body at a distance of 1.5 cm as the ordinary
handset position. In order to comply with radio frequency exposure requirements, use an accessory (e.g. belt clip, holster) that does
not contain metallic parts to maintain a 1.5 cm separation between the body and handset.

European RF Exposure Information

This handset 930CA is a radio transmitter and receiver. This product has been confirmed not to exceed the limits recommended by
international guidelines for radio frequency.
These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The influence on the human body of radio waves emitted from mobile phones is measured employing a unit known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg. The maximum SAR value for this model handset, when placed on the
ear, is 2W/kg for 930CA*. As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they can be used in other positions, such as on the body as
described in SoftBank s Body SAR Policy. In this case, the maximum SAR value is 0.375W/kg for 930CA.
'
Since the SAR is measured at the highest transmitting power level, the actual SAR during a call is usually much smaller. This is because
mobile phones are designed to operate at their minimum power levels necessary to communicate with base stations.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that present scientific information about mobile phone use does not indicate any adverse
effects on the human body. They recommend limiting the talking time or using a handsfree device to keep the mobile phone away from
the head and body to reduce influence of exposure to radio waves.

* Measurements with handset placed on the body are carried out in accordance with the FCC standards. The values are based on
European requirements.
