124 Safety Precautions and Conditions of Use
ENVIRONMENT
• Keep your phone away from extreme heat. Do not leave it on the
dashboard of a car or near a heater. Do not leave it in any place
that is extremely damp or dusty.
• Since this product is not waterproof, do not use it or store it where
fluids such as water can splash onto it. Raindrops, water spray,
juice, coffee, steam, perspiration, etc. will also cause
malfunctions.
PRECAUTIONS CONCERNING VEHICLE USE
• It is the user’s responsibility to check the local laws governing the
use of a mobile phone in vehicles. Pay full attention to driving. Pull
off to the side of the road, park the car, and switch off the engine
before making or answering a call.
• Use of your phone’s function may interfere with the vehicle’s
electronic systems, such as the ABS anti-lock brakes or the
air-bag. To ensure no such problem occurs, please check with
your dealer or car manufacturer before connecting your phone.
• Only allow qualified service maintenance personnel to install the
vehicle accessories.
The manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage which may result
as a consequence of improper use or use contrary to the instructions
contained herein.
SAR
Your Sharp mobile phone has been designed, manufactured and
tested so as not to exceed the limits for exposure to electromagnetic
fields recommended by the Council of the European Union. These
limits are part of comprehensive guidelines developed by
independent scientific organisations. The guidelines include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of the phone
user and others and to take into account variations in age and health,
individual sensitivities and environmental conditions. European
standards provide for the amount of radio frequency electromagnetic
energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone to be
measured by reference to the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The
SAR limit for the general public is currently 2 watts per kilogram
averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. Your Sharp mobile phone
SAR value is X.XXX watts per kilogram. This has been tested to
ensure that this limit is not exceeded even when the phone is
operating at its highest certified power. In use however your Sharp
mobile phone may operate at less than full power because it is
designed to use only sufficient power to communicate with the
network.
