49Radio Wave Exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information★Mobile Phone GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900& UMTS/HSPA Bands1/5United States & CanadaTHIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.The IS12S mobile phones have been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to not exceed the limits* of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by governmental authorities. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by international scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all individuals, regardless of age and health.The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of ■various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. For more information on SAR, please refer to the safe and efficient use chapter in the User Guide.The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone model when tested for use by the ear is 1.20 W/kg*, and when worn on the body is 0.79 W/kg* for speech and 1.26 W/kg* for data calls. Body worn measurements are made while the phone is in use and worn on the body with a Sony Ericsson accessory supplied with or designated for use with this phone. It is therefore recommended that only Ericsson and Sony Ericsson original accessories be used in conjunction with Sony Ericsson phones.**Before a phone model is available for sale to the public in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure*. The tests are performed in positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this phone model with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC equipment authorization meet the government requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this phone model is on file at the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea after searching on FCC ID PY7A5880016. Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
50Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org.* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.** This paragraph is only applicable to authorities and customers in the United States.EuropeThis mobile phone model IS12S has been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. These requirements are based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands.While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves.■For more information on SAR, please refer to the safety chapter in the User’s Guide.SAR data information for residents in countries that have adopted the SAR limit recommended by the International Commission of Non-lonizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which is 2 W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue (for example European Union, Japan, Brazil and New Zealand):The highest SAR value for this model phone tested by Sony Ericsson for use at the ear is 1.00 W/kg (10g).Radio Frequency (RF) exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)When your phone or Bluetooth handsfree is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy. International safety guidelines have been developed through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure. The guidelines include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons and to account for any variations in measurements.Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is used to measure radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but because the phone is designed to use the minimum power necessary to access the chosen network, the actual SAR level can be well below this value. There is no proof of
51difference in safety based on difference in SAR value.Products with radio transmitters sold in the US must be certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). When required, tests are performed when the phone is placed at the ear and when worn on the body. For body-worn operation, the phone has been tested when positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or when properly used with an appropriate Sony Ericsson accessory and worn on the body. Use of the phone other than as tested may impact SAR and result in non-compliance with such RF exposure limits. For devices which include “WiFi hotspot” functionality, body-worn SAR measurements for operation of the device operating in WiFi hotspot mode were taken using a separation distance of 10mm. Use of third-party accessories may result in different SAR levels than those reported.For more information about SAR and radio frequency exposure go to:www.sonyericsson.com/health.Guidelines for Safe and Efficient UsePlease follow these guidelines. Failure to do so might entail a potential health risk or product malfunction. If in doubt as to its proper function, have the product checked by a certified service partner before charging or using it.
