station signal is used instead.

◎ When making an emergency call to Police, Fire and

Ambulance or Regional Coast Guard Headquarters, always confirm where you are, and tell them your exact location on the phone. Note that depending on the area where you are calling, your call may not be connected to the agency having jurisdiction over that area.

◎ If the emergency call receiving agency determines that

human lives and health are in danger, they will be able to acquire the caller’s location information during the call or within a certain period of time after the call.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Cell Phones

This model 【SHL22】 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.

Appendix

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 0.282 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 ensure it only outputs the minimum power required to communicate with a base station. Therefor 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.

e in general,

(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 0.292 W/kg

As SAR is measured utilizing the devices highest transmitting power the actual SAR of this device while operating is typically below that indicated above. This is due to automatic changes to the power level of the device to ensure it only uses the minimum level required to reach the network.

The World Health Organization has stated that pr information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile devices. They note that if you want to reduce your exposure then you can do so by limiting the length of calls or using a hands-free device to keep the mobile phone away from the head.

* The tests are carried out in accordance with international guidelines for

testing.
