80 Additional information
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
various mobile phones, all Sony Ericsson mobile phone
models are 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 www.SonyEricsson.com/.
DRIVING
Please verify whether local laws and regulations restrict
the use of mobile phones while driving or require drivers
to use handsfree solutions. We recommend that you
use only Ericsson or Sony Ericsson handsfree solutions
intended for use with your product. Please note that
because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile
phones in their vehicles unless a handsfree kit with an
external antenna supports the installation.
Always pay full attention to driving and pull off the road
and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
PERSONAL MEDICAL DEVICES
Mobile phones may affect the operation of cardiac
pacemakers and other implanted equipment. Please
avoid placing the mobile phone over the pacemaker,
e.g. in your breast pocket. When using the mobile
phone, place it at the ear opposite the pacemaker. If a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) is kept between
the mobile phone and the pacemaker, the risk of
interference is limited. If you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place, immediately
turn off your mobile phone. Contact your cardiologist
for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult the
manufacturer of the device.
