Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines
establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for
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 mobile
phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest
certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the
actual SAR level of the mobile phone while operating
can be well below this value. This is because the
mobile phone 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, all Sony
Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to meet
radio frequency exposure guidelines.
For phones sold in the U.S., before a phone model 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 the government-adopted requirement
for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (that is, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. For
body worn operation, this phone has been tested and
meets FCC RF exposure guidelines when the handset
is positioned a minimum of 15 mm from the body
without any metal parts in the vicinity of the phone or
when used with the original Sony Ericsson body
worn accessory intended for this phone. Use of other
accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
A separate leaflet with SAR information for this
mobile phone model is included with the material
that comes with this mobile phone. This information
can also be found, together with more information on
radio frequency exposure and SAR, on:
Accessible Solutions/Special
Needs
For phones sold in the U.S., you can use your TTY
terminal with your Sony Ericsson mobile phone (with
the necessary accessory). For information on
Accessible Solutions for individuals with special
needs call the Sony Ericsson Special Needs Center at
