FCC Information (USA)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits 
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These 
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, 
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in 
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio 
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will 
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined 
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that 
to which the receiver is connected.
  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party 
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the 
equipment.
NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV 
interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. 
Such modifications could void the user’s authority to operate the 
equipment.
Only peripherals (input/output devices, terminals, printers, etc.) that 
comply with FCC Class B limits may be attached to this product. 
Operation with noncompliant peripherals is likely to result in interference 
to radio and television reception.
All cables used to connect peripherals must be shielded and grounded. 
Operation with cables connected to peripherals that are not shielded and 
grounded may result in interference to radio and television reception.
For customers in USA and Canada
The following FCC statements apply only to the version of this model 
manufactured for sale in the USA. Other versions may not comply with 
FCC technical regulations, and the FCC statements are not applicable in 
Canada, including the Province of QUEBEC.

FCC/IC Radio Frequency Exposure
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems 
are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, 
however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low 
power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) 
in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF 
can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF 
that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health 
effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any 
biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological 
effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by 
additional research.
The following models (Table 1) have been tested and found to comply 
with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled 
environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure 
Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio 
frequency (RF) Exposure rules.

Industry Canada Notice
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 
1991 (United States)
For models with the wireless WAN function only
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for 
any person to use a tablet device or other electronic device, including 
FAX machines, to send any message unless such message clearly 
contains, in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or 
on the first page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent and 
an identification of the business, other entity, or individual sending the 
message, and the telephone number of the sending machine or such 
business, other entity, or individual. (The telephone number provided 
may not be a 900 number or any other number for which charges exceed 
local or long distance transmission charges.)
In order to program this information into your facsimile machine, see 
your fax software documentation.
Personal Medical Devices
For models with the wireless WAN function only
When Wireless WAN power is transmitting, it may affect the operation of 
cardiac pacemakers and other implanted medical devices. If a minimum 
distance of 8 inches / 20 cm is kept between the PC and the pacemaker, 
the risk of interference is reduced. If you have any reason to suspect that 
interference is taking place, immediately turn off the WAN feature.
Contact your cardiologist for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult the manufacture of the device.

Safety Information
Tablet device
  Sony is not responsible for any interference that you may experience 
or that may be caused when operating this device.
  To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to 
qualified personnel only.
  To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose your tablet device to 
rain or moisture.
  Do not use or store your tablet device in a location subject to heat 
sources, such as radiators or air ducts; direct sunlight; excessive dust; 
moisture or rain; mechanical vibration or shock; strong magnets or 
speakers that are not magnetically shielded; excessively high and low 
temperatures; and high humidity.
  Turning off your tablet device with the power button or the power 
switch does not disconnect the device completely from mains 
voltage. To disconnect it completely, unplug the AC adapter or the 
power cable from mains. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the 
equipment and shall be easily accessible.
  Audio and picture distortion may occur if this equipment is positioned 
in close proximity to any equipment emitting electromagnetic 
radiation.
  Observe the following precautions to provide adequate air circulation 
and to ensure normal reliable operation:
  Do not use the tablet device and/or the AC adapter while covered 
or wrapped in cloth. Ensure the AC adapter operates in a clear 
environment.
  Turn off the tablet device before putting the device into a bag or a 
carrying case.
  Do not use your tablet device directly on your lap. The temperature of 
the base of the unit will rise during normal operation and over time 
could result in discomfort or burns.
Wireless functionality
  If using wireless functionality near a pacemaker, make sure it is at least 
8 inches / 20 cm away from the pacemaker.
  Do not use wireless functionality on hospital premises. Doing so may 
cause medical devices to malfunction.
  Check for and respect airline restrictions on use of wireless 
capabilities. If use of the wireless function is prohibited on the airline, 
turn off the WIRELESS switch on your tablet device before boarding.
Battery pack
  Sony disclaims and shall assume no responsibility in case of any losses 
and damages arising from:
  the use of non-genuine Sony battery packs or AC adapters with 
your tablet device.
  the disassembly, alteration of, or tampering with any Sony battery 
pack.
  Do not charge the battery pack in any way other than as described in 
the user guide or as designated by Sony in writing.

Exposition aux radiofréquences FCC/IC
Selon les preuves scientifiques disponibles, aucun problème de santé 
n’est associé à l’utilisation d’appareils sans fil de faible puissance. Rien 
ne prouve cependant que ces appareils sont absolument sans danger. 
Lorsqu’ils sont utilisés, les appareils sans fil de faible puissance émettent 
de faibles niveaux d’énergie radiofréquence (RF) dans la gamme des 
hyperfréquences. Bien que les niveaux élevés de radiofréquence puissent 
avoir un effet sur la santé (réchauffement des tissus), l’exposition à 
de faibles niveaux n’ayant pas d’effet thermique n’a aucun impact 
négatif connu sur la santé. De nombreuses études sur l’exposition aux 
radiofréquences de faible niveau n’ont révélé aucun effet biologique. 
Certaines d’entre elles ont sous-entendu qu’il pourrait y avoir de tels 
effets, mais leurs résultats n’ont pas été confirmés par des recherches 
supplémentaires.
Les modeles suivants (Tableau 1) ont ete testes et se sont averes 
conformes aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements definies par la FCC 
et IC pour l’environnement non controle ; ils repondent aux regles sur 
l’exposition aux rayonnements RF (radiofrequence) de la FCC et a celles 
de la norme RSS-102 d’IC.
