AntennaThis phone contains a built-in antenna. Use of antenna devices
notmarketed by Sony Ericsson specifically for this model could
damage your cell phone, reduce performance, and produce SAR
levels above the established limits (see below).
Efficient useHold your cell phone as you would any other cell phone. Do not
cover the top of the cell phone when it is in use, as this affects call
quality and may cause the cell phone to operate at a higher power
level than needed, thus shortening talk and standby times.
Radio frequency (RF) exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)Your cell phone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver.
Whenit is turned on, it emits low levels 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, for example, ICNIRP (International Commission
onNon-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (The Institute of
Electrical and Electronics 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
ofall persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for
anyvariations 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 phone. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified
power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the
cell phone while it is operating can be well below this value. This is
because the cell phone is designed to use the minimum power
required to reach the network.
