Safety Precautions
Electromagnetic Waves
For body-worn operation, this phone has been
tested and meets RF exposure guidelines when
used with accessories containing no metal, that
position handset a minimum of 15 mm from the
body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with RF exposure guidelines.

CE Declaration of Conformity
In some countries/regions, such as France, there
are restrictions on the use of Wi-Fi. If you intend to
use Wi-Fi on the handset abroad, check the local
laws and regulations beforehand.
Hereby, Sharp Telecommunications of Europe Ltd, declares
that 940SH is in compliance with the essential requirements
and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.
A copy of the original declaration of conformity for each
model can be found at the following Internet address:

Do not dispose of an exhausted battery with
ordinary refuse; always tape over battery
terminals before disposal. Take battery to a
SoftBank Shop, or follow the local disposal
regulations.
Charge battery in ambient temperatures between
5oC and 35oC; outside this range, battery may
leak/overheat and performance may deteriorate.
European RF Exposure Information
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.
The guidelines use a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/k .
As mobile devices offer a range of functions, they
can be used in other positions, such as on the
body as described in this user guide
Highest SAR value:
**
Model At the Ear On the Body
940SH 0.481 W/k
As SAR is measured utilizing the device's 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 World Health Organization has stated that
present scientific information does not indicate the
need for any special precautions for the use of
mobile devices. They note that if you want to
reduce your exposure then you can do so by
limiting the length of calls or using a handsfree
device to keep the mobile phone away from the
head and body.
