Caution
Near Electronic Medical Equipment
This section is based on "Guidelines on the Use of Radio
Communications Equipment such as Cellular Telephones and
Safeguards for Electronic Medical Equipment"
(Electromagnetic Compatibility Conference, April 1997) and
"Report of Investigation of the Effects of Radio Waves on
Medical Equipment, etc." (Association of Radio Industries and
Businesses, March 2001).
If you use an implantable cardiac pacemaker or
cardioverter defibrillator, keep handset more than
22 cm away from the implant at all times.
Handset radio waves may affect implantable cardiac pacemaker
or cardioverter defibrillator operations.
Observe the following in medical facilities.
• Do not take handset into operating rooms, Intensive Care
Units or Coronary Care Units.
• Turn off handset inside hospital wards.
• Turn off handset even outside hospital wards (in hospital
lobbies, etc.); electronic medical equipment may be in use
nearby.
• Where a medical facility has specific instructions prohibiting
the carrying and use of mobile phones, observe those
instructions strictly.
Turn off handset in crowded places such as rush hour
trains; implantable cardiac pacemakers or cardioverter
defibrillators may be in use nearby.
Handset radio waves may affect implantable cardiac

Handling Precautions
!SoftBank is not liable for damages from accidental loss/
alteration of handset/Memory Card information (Phone Book
entries, images/sound files, etc.). Back-up important
information.
!Handset transmissions may be disrupted inside buildings,
tunnels or underground, or when moving into/out of such
places.
!Use handset without disturbing others.
!Handsets are radios as stipulated by the Radio Law. Under the
Radio Law, handsets must be submitted for inspection upon
request.
!Handset use near landlines, TVs or radios may cause
interference.
!Read Memory card manual beforehand for proper use.
!Beware of eavesdropping.
Digital signals reduce interception, however transmissions may be
overheard. Deliberate/accidental interception of communications
constitutes eavesdropping.
"eavesdropping" means radio communication is received by another
receiver deliberately or accidentally.
!For body worn operation, this mobile phone has been tested
and meets RF exposure guidelines when used with an
accessory containing no metal and positioning the handset a
minimum 15 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may
not ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
Persons using electronic medical equipment outside
medical facilities should consult the vendor about
possible radio wave effects.
Handset radio waves may affect electronic medical equipment
operations.

!This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
!Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.
Your handset is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government.
The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organisations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless handsets employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. The tests are performed in positions and
locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for
each model.
The highest SAR value for this model handset when tested for use at the
ear is 0.456 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 0.518 W/kg.
Body-worn Operation; This device was tested for typical body-worn
operations with the back of the handset kept 1.5 cm from the body. To
maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories
that maintain a 1.5 cm separation distance between the user's body and
the back of the handset. The use of beltclips, holsters and similar
accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly.
The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not
comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be avoided. The
FCC has granted an Equipment Authorisation for this model handset with
all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
emission guidelines. SAR information on this model handset is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/ after searching on FCC ID UCE208008A.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on
the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website at
http://www.phonefacts.net.
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/kg and the highest
SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0.491 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 0.805 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.
