THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
The Z502 Series mobile phones have been designed to comply with
applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your
wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed to
not exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S.
Government. These limits establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that
were developed by international scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards
include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are
conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC
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 wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
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 (i.e., at
the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value as reported to the FCC for this model phone
when tested for use at the ear is 0.434 W/kg and when
worn on the body is 0.520 W/kg. Body worn measurements are
made while the phone is in use and worn on the body with an
Ericsson or Sony Ericsson accessory supplied with or designated
for use with this phone. It is therefore recommended that only Ericsson
and Sony Ericsson original accessories be used in conjunction
with Sony Ericsson phones. The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC equipment authorization
meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with the
FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID PY7AF061011.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be
found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
(CTIA) web-site at http://phonefacts.net/
.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
