The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0.774 W/kg*. 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. In this case, the highest tested SAR value is 1.030 W/kg. 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 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 hands-free device to keep the mobile phone away from the head and body. * The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for testing. ** Please see Electromagnetic Safety for important notes regarding body worn operation.
Water & Dust Resistance Handset has waterproof ratings equivalent to IPX5 and IPX7 (External Device Port Cover and Battery Cover secure) (SoftBank testing). However failure to observe precautions given here may allow water, sand, foreign particles, etc. to enter handset and may cause handset to overheat, ignite, or cause electric shock, scratches, or malfunction. For safe handset use, first read precautions here. IPX5 equivalent Handset continues to function as a phone after being sprayed from all directions with 12.5 liters of water per minute from a 6.3 mm diameter nozzle for at least 3 minutes, from a distance of approximately 3 meters. IPX7 equivalent Handset continues to function as a phone without water intrusion after being slowly immersed in still tap water of room temperature to a depth of 1 meter, and left there for approximately 30 minutes before being removed again. Meaning, . . . handset can be used in rain (less than 20 mm per hour), bath room, kitchen, at poolside, etc.  Before Use  In Various Environments  Shared Precautions  If Exposed to Water  When Charging Before Use  Secure External Device Port Cover and Battery Cover to prevent water intrusion. Confirm that all
closures are secure.  Particles (hair, sand, etc.) lodged between joining surfaces may allow water intrusion.  DO NOT open/close External Device Port Cover or Battery Cover if hands/handset is wet.  Do not place handset directly on beach sand, etc. Exposing Mic/Receiver/Speaker, etc. to sand may reduce volume.  Do not use submersed (including key operation).  Do not expose to or immerse in liquid other than room temperature fresh water or tap water (soap/detergent/bath salt water, hot spring water, hot water, muddy water, sea water, pool water, alcohol, etc.). In Various Environments  Rain ・Do not use in heavy rain (20 mm or more per hour). * Water remaining on Display may cause Touchscreen to malfunction. ・DO NOT open/close External Device Port Cover or Battery Cover while exposed to rain or if hands are wet.  Bath room ・Do not immerse or drop in bathtub. Do not use submersed. * Water remaining on Display may cause Touchscreen to malfunction.
・Do not immerse in soap/detergent/bath salt water or hot spring water. ・Do not expose directly to warm shower. ・Do not expose to hot water. ・Avoid prolonged use in bath room. ・Use handset in temperatures between 5 ˚ C–35 ˚ C and humidity within 35%–90% (limited use in temperatures between 36 ˚ C–40 ˚ C).  Kitchen ・Do not expose to or immerse in liquid other than fresh water or tap water (water with soap/detergent or spices, or beverage). ・Do not expose to or immerse in hot water or in chilled water. ・Do not leave handset in extremely hot/cold locations, (e.g., near ovens/stoves or in refrigerators). ・Do not subject handset to strong water pressure (more than 6 liters per minute).  Poolside ・Do not immerse or drop in pool water. Do not use submersed. ・Pool water is chlorinated. If wetted with pool water, promptly wash off with room temperature tap water. Do not use a brush. * Somewhat low water pressure (6 or less liters per minute) Shared Precautions  Close External Device Port Cover and secure Battery Cover with its rubber seal placed correctly. Lodged particles (lint, hair, sand, etc.) may allow water intrusion.  Do not insert pointed object between External Device Port Cover/Battery Cover and handset. May scratch seal and allow water to enter.  Do not open or close External Device Port Cover/Battery Cover while wearing gloves. Lodged particles (lint, hair, sand, etc.) from glove may allow water intrusion.  Check handset and hands for moisture, sand, grime, etc. before opening or closing External Device Port Cover/Battery Cover. May enter handset or become lodged in closures, resulting in malfunction or water intrusion. Wipe hands with lint-free clean, dry cloth if necessary.  Do not leave handset wetted. Water may enter from gaps. May also reduce volume. If wetted, shake handset, and promptly remove as much water as possible with a lint-free clean, dry cloth. In cold regions, handset may freeze and cause malfunction.  Handset is waterproof for only for fresh water/tap water. Not waterproof for hot water, salt water, soap water, chemicals, sweat, etc. If exposed to other types of moisture or sand/mud/etc., promptly wash off with room temperature tap water. Wash using hands (do not use brush) and hold External Device Port Cover and Battery Cover secured. * Somewhat low water pressure (6 or less liters per minute)  Do not expose to strong water pressure (e.g., tap/shower water that hurts) above rating (IPX5, IPX7) or immerse for extended period.
 Do not wash in a washing machine, ultra-sonic washing machine, etc.  Do not subject to strong shock while submersed (e.g., drop into basin, toilet, washing machine with water).  Handset accessories (AC Charger, etc.) are not waterproof.  Do not insert pointed objects in holes of Mic, Receiver, or Speaker.  External Device Port Cover and seal on back of Battery Cover are vital to waterproofing. Observe the following. ・Do not remove or scratch. ・Do not allow particles to adhere. Lodged particles (lint, hair, sand, etc.) may allow water intrusion. Always remove. ・Remaining liquid other than fresh water or tap water (hot water, salt water, detergent water, chemicals, sweat, etc.) may degrade waterproofing. ・Be careful sealing is not pinched when securing closures. Forcing closures with sealing pinched scratches sealing and may degrade waterproofing. ・Replace waterproofing components every two years for waterproofing, regardless of appearance. Replacement can be provided at cost while handset is retained. Visit a SoftBank shop or contact SoftBank Customer Support.  Do not drop or otherwise subject handset to strong shock. May degrade waterproofing.  Handset will not float.  Do not immerse in hot water, use in a sauna, or subject to hot air from a hair dryer, etc.  Use handset in temperatures between 5°C–35°C and humidity within 35%–90% (limited use in temperatures between 36°C–40°C). Use in extremes beyond these ranges may degrade waterproofing.  Sudden temperature change results in condensation. Let handset reach room temperature before moving from cold to hot places (e.g., shower/bath) to prevent condensation. Handset has no anti-condensation features. * If condensation forms inside Display, leave at room temperature until condensation dries.  Handset fulfills performance requirements for assumed usage. However, handset is not guaranteed for any and all conditions of actual usage. Malfunction determined to be due to mishandling is not covered under warranty.
