Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.Avis de L’Industrie CanadaREMARQUE : Cet équipement est conforme aux Spécifications Techniques des Équipements Terminaux d’Industrie Canada en vigueur.L’indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie de ce matériel est de 0,1. L’indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie (IES) sert à indiquer le nombre maximal de termiaux qui peuvent être raccordés à une interface téléphonique. La terminaison d’une interface peut consister en une combinaison quelconque de dispositifs, à la seule condition que la somme d’indices d’équivalence de la sonnerie de tous les dispositifs n’excéde pas 5.Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.Pour empêcher que cet appareil cause du brouillage au service faisant l'objet d'une licence, il doit être utilisé à l'intérieur et devrait être placé loin des fenêtres afin de fournir un écran de blindage maximal. Si le matériel (ou son antenne d'émission) est installé à l'extérieur, il doit faire l'objet d'une licence.FCC Radio Frequency Exposure and SARThe 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.Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiations Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure of the general population. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements.Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a transceiver. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the transceiver while operating can be well below this value. This is because the transceiver is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.Variations in SAR below the radio frequency exposure guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety. While there may be differences in SAR levels among mobile phones, VAIO PC is designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines.Before VAIO PC is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations as required by the FCC for each model. For body worn operations, this PC has been tested and meets FCC RF exposure guidelines for fixed and mobile use as normal PC use.3960_LegalSafety_US.fm Page 13 Thursday, March 8, 2007 9:50 AM
