■ Common precautions

External connection terminal cover and card slot cover

Make sure that the external connection terminal cover and card

slot cover is firmly closed. Just a small particle (a hair, a grain of

sand, etc.) on the seals can cause water leak.

Do not open/close the external connection terminal cover or

card slot cover with gloved hands. Just a small particle (a hair,

a grain of sand, etc.) on the seals can cause water leak. Wipe

off any minuscule droplets of water or dirt with a clean dry cloth

before closing the covers.

If the external connection terminal cover or card slot cover is

deteriorated or damaged, the waterproof property becomes

ineffective. In such case, contact an au shop near you.

If any liquid other than plain water gets on the product

If any liquid other than plain water (e.g. seawater, detergent, alcohol)

gets on the product, immediately rinse it with plain water.

You can wash the product under a mild flow (up to 6 liters per
minute) of tap water at room temperature (5℃ to 35℃ ) at a

distance of about 10 cm from the faucet or shower head.

If the product gets dirty, wash it with your hands holding the

external connection terminal cover and card slot cover so that

they do not open.

After the product gets wet

After the product gets wet, drain water, and wipe the main unit with

a clean dry cloth. In cold climates, water on the product may turn to

frost. Using the product with frost may cause a fault. Do not leave

the product without wiping off the water. (No special measures

against condensation have been implemented in the product.)

Rubber seals

The rubber seal around the external connection terminal

cover and card slot cover are important to maintain waterproof

property. Do not damage or remove the rubber seals.

When closing the external connection terminal cover or card

slot cover, take care not to get the rubber seals caught. Forcibly

closing the cover with the rubber seals caught may damage

them resulting in loss of waterproof property. Just a small particle

(a hair, a grain of sand, etc.) on the seals can cause water leak.

If any liquid other than plain water (e.g. alcohol) gets on the

rubber seals, it may cause deterioration in durability.

Do not insert sharp objects into gaps around the external connection

terminal cover or card slot cover. Doing so might damage or deform

the product or damage the rubber seals, causing water leak.

It is recommended to replace the parts for maintaining

waterproof property once every two years regardless of whether

any abnormality is present. For information on part replacement,

contact an au shop near you or Keitai Guarantee Service Center.

Specific Absorption Rate of Cell Phone

This model URBANO cell phone complies with Japanese
technical regulations and international guidelines regarding
exposure to radio waves.
This cell phone has been designed in observance of
the Japanese technical regulations regarding 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. The SAR limit for cell phones is

2.0 W/kg. The highest SAR value for this cell phone when
tested for use at the ear is 0.578W/kg. The highest SAR
value for this cell phone when tested for use on the body is

0.447W/kg. There may be slight differences in SAR levels
among individual products, but they all satisfy the limit.
The actual SAR of this cell phone while talking on the

*

and limits to exposure to radio waves

phone can be well below that indicated above. This is due
to automatic changes in the power level of the cell phone
to 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 cell phone.
This cell phone can be used in positions other than
against your ear. Use an accessory such as a carrying
case, etc. so that you can hold the product at least 1.5 cm
away from your body and also do not contain metal parts
between the product and your body. By doing this, this cell
phone complies with Japanese technical regulations and
international guidelines regarding exposure to radio waves.
The World Health Organization has stated that present
scientific information does not indicate the use of mobile
devices has any harmful effects on the human body. They
recommend that if you are still worried about your exposure
then you can limit your talk time or use a handsfree kit to
keep the cell phone away from your head and body.
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
