THIS PANASONIC PHONE (MODEL EB-SC3) MEETS THE EU REQUIRE-
MENTS 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
2.0W/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 of the phone.
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 highest SAR value for this model phone, when tested for use at
the ear, for compliance against the standard was
0.650W/kg
