This model SH-06G mobile phone complies with Japanese
technical regulations and international guidelines regarding
exposure to radio waves.
This mobile phone was designed in observance of Japanese
technical regulations regarding exposure to radio waves(*1) and
limits to exposure to radio waves recommended by a set of
equivalent international guidelines. This set of international
guidelines was 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 technical regulations and international guidelines set out limits
for radio waves as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, which is
the value of absorbed energy in any 10 grams of tissue over a 6-
minute period. 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 0.900 W/kg and when worn on the body is 0.510 W/kg*2.
There may be slight differences between the SAR levels for each
product, but they all satisfy the limit. The actual SAR of this mobile
phone while operating can be well below that indicated above.
This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to
ensure it only uses the minimum required to reach the network.
Therefore in general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower
the power output of the device.
This mobile phone can be used in positions other than against your
ear. Please keep the mobile phone farther than 1.5 cm away from
your body by using such as a carrying case or a wearable accessory
without including any metals. This mobile phone satisfies the
technical regulations and international guidelines.
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."

information.

European RF Exposure Information
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
is 0.738 W/kg
*
and when worn on the body is 0.479 W/kg
*
.
For body-worn operation, this mobile device has been tested and
meets the RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory
containing no metal and positioning the handset a minimum of 1.5
cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
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 tests are carried out in accordance with international guide-
lines for testing.
FCC Notice
z
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.
z
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer responsible for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
Information to User
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
of 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:
1. Reorient/relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
