Earthquake early warning

◎

Earthquake early warning notifies areas where a strong shaking (Japan seismic scale 4 or more) is expected when an earthquake whose maximum Japan seismic scale is predicted of 5-lower or more has been detected.

◎ This service detects an earthquake (P-wave, preliminary tremors) near the

seismic center immediately after the earthquake occurs and automatically calculates its location, scale and predicted strength of the shaking. After that, you will be notified of the earthquake as soon as possible within a few seconds to dozens of seconds before a strong shaking from the earthquake (S-wave, principal shock) occurs.

◎ In the vicinity of the seismic center, a strong shaking may reach you before

an earthquake early warning.

◎ The earthquake early warning distribution system provided by this service

is different from that provided by TV, radio and other communication media and thus the arriving time of earthquake early warnings may be different among those media.

Tsunami warning

◎ Tsunami warning notifies areas including target sea coasts of tsunami

warnings (major tsunami and tsunami) provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Cell Phones

This model 【IS17SH】 mobile phone complies with Japanese technical regulations and international guidelines regarding exposure to radio waves. This mobile phone has been designed in observance of the Japanese technical regulations regarding exposure to radio waves (*1) and limits to exposure to radio waves recommended by equivalent international guidelines. These international guidelines were set out by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which is in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), and the permissible limits include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health condition. The Japanese technical regulations and international guidelines define the limits using a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), which represents the average amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the human head. The SAR limit for mobile phones is 2.0 W/kg. The highest SAR value for this mobile phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.460 W/kg. There may be slight differences in SAR levels among individual products, but they all satisfy the limit. The actual SAR of this mobile phone while talking on the phone can be well below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes in the power level of the mobile phone to

Appendix/Index

ensure it only outputs the minimum power required to communicate with a base station. Therefore in general, the closer you are to a base station, the lower the power output of the mobile phone. This mobile phone can be used in positions other than against your ear. This mobile phone satisfies the international guidelines when used with au Carrying Case F Black (0105FCA) (sold separately) recommended by KDDI (*2). In case you are not using the au Carrying Case F Black (0105FCA) (sold separately), use a product that contains no metal parts, and one that can hold the mobile phone at least 1.5 cm away from your body.

The World Health Organization has stated that “a large number of studies have been performed over the last two decades to assess whether mobile phones pose a potential health risk. To date, no adverse health effects have been established as being caused by mobile phone use.” If you would like to know more detailed information, please refer to the WHO website. (http://www.who.int/docstore/peh-emf/publications/facts_press/ fact_english.htm) Please refer to the websites listed below if you would like to know more detailed information regarding SAR.

■ European RF Exposure Information

Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to

exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international

guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific

organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the

protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2 W/kg and the highest SAR value for this device when tested at the ear was 0.141 W/kg*.
