■Internal battery
■Charger
●Do not put stickers or sheets (e.g. commercially available
protective films, peep prevention sheets) on the display.
Doing so might hinder correct operation of the touch panel.
●Operating the touch panel with fingernails might result in split
nails or jammed fingers.
●If the display surface is dirty or wet with sweat or water, it
may not function correctly. In such case, wipe the display
surface with a dry, soft cloth.
●When carrying the product in your pocket or bag, take care
not to put the touch panel close to metals or other conductive
materials, as it might cause false operation of the touch
panel.
●Use in very hot or cold environments, for example, when left
in an automobile with the windows closed in summer, will
cause the internal battery capacity to drop and shorten the
available battery usage time. This will also shorten the
internal battery’s service life. Try to use the internal battery as
much as possible at room temperature.
●The internal battery gradually discharges after charging even
if the product is not used. The internal battery may discharge
completely after long time no use. Charge before using the
product.
●Because the internal battery performance or service life will
become low, do not store the product in the following
conditions.
•Battery level is full (soon after charging is complete)
•Battery level is empty (to the extent that the product is not
powered on)
•In extremely hot or humid conditions
●Charge the battery before using the product for the first time
after purchase, or if you have not used the product for a long
time.
●The internal battery is a consumable item. If the performance
of the internal battery does not recover after charge, the
internal battery is at the end of service life, so stop using it.
Since the battery is built-in type, the product will be kept at
an au shop etc. and charges will be incurred for repair. Also,
you may not use the product in certain period of time. Note
that the length of service life varies depending on the usage
condition, etc.
●Internal batteries sometimes swell up as they approach the
end of their service life depending on the usage condition.
This is due to the properties of lithium-ion batteries, and is
not a problem in terms of safety.
●When not using the specified charger (sold separately),
remove its power plug from the power outlet or the cigarette
lighter socket.
●Do not wrap the power cord of the specified charger (sold
separately) around the power plug or desktop holder. Doing

This model 【SHL23】 mobile phone complies with
Japanese technical regulations and international
guidelines regarding exposure to radio waves. This
mobile phone has been designed in observance of the
Japanese technical regulations regarding exposure to
radio waves (*1) and limits to exposure to radio waves
recommended by equivalent international guidelines.
These international guidelines were set out by the
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP), which is in collaboration with the
World Health Organization (WHO), and the permissible
limits include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health condition. The Japanese technical regulations
and international guidelines define the limits using a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR), which represents the average amount of
radio frequency energy absorbed by the human head.

The SAR limit for mobile phones is 2.0 W/kg. The
highest SAR value for this mobile phone when tested
for use at the ear is 0.375 W/kg. There may be slight
differences in SAR levels among individual products,
but they all satisfy the limit. The actual SAR of this
mobile phone while talking on the phone can be well
below that indicated above. This is due to automatic
changes in the power level of the mobile phone to
ensure it only outputs the minimum power required to
communicate with a base station. Therefore in general,
the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power
output of the mobile phone.
This mobile phone can be used in positions other than
against your ear. This mobile phone satisfies the
international guidelines when used with au Carrying
Case F Black (0105FCA) (sold separately)/au Carrying
Case G Black (0106FCA) (sold separately)
recommended by KDDI (*2).
In case you are not using the au Carrying Case F Black
(0105FCA) (sold separately)/au Carrying Case G Black
(0106FCA) (sold separately), use a product that
contains no metal parts, and one that can hold the
mobile phone at least 1.5 cm away from your body.
The World Health Organization has stated that “a large
number of studies have been performed over the last
two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a
potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects
have been established as being caused by mobile
phone use”. If you would like to know more detailed
information, please refer to the WHO website.
