THIS PANASONIC PHONE (MODEL EB-X70) MEETS THE EU REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your mobile phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy recommended by
The Council of the European Union. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines
were developed by independent scientific organisations through periodic and thorough
evaluation of scientific studies. The limits include a substantial safety margin designed to
assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit recommended by The Council of the
European Union is 2.0 W/kg.* Tests for SAR have been conducted using standard
operating positions with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum
value. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a base
station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, compliance with the European
R&TTE directive must be shown. This directive includes as one essential requirement the
protection of the health and the safety for the user and any other person. The SAR value
for this model phone, when tested for use at the ear, for compliance against the standard
was 0.459 W/kg. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet the EU requirements for RF exposure.
* The SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
averaged over ten grams of tissue. The limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety
to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and
the network band.
