of radio frequency energy (also known as radio
waves or radio frequency fields).
Governments around the world have adopted
comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations*, e.g. ICNIRP
(International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection), through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. These guidelines establish
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general
population. All Sony Ericsson mobile phone models
are designed to operate within these stringent levels.
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.
Therefore, the closer you are to a base station, the
more likely it is that the actual SAR level will decrease.
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 phone models, all
mobile phone models must be designed to meet radio
frequency 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
