Purpose of Use
This function is designed as a simple way to measure
amount of radiation (gamma rays) around handset. Do not
use it for other purposes.
Measurement Results
Radiation levels constantly change; results are not
guaranteed to be accurate and therefore not suitable for
professional use.
・If result seems to be high, instead use a dedicated
measuring device.
Location of Use
Avoid use near a microwave oven, fluorescent light or ion
generator; they may interfere with accurate measurement.
・Do not place handset directly on the ground for
measurement; debris may adhere to handset, affecting
measurement.
During Measurement
Do not subject to strong vibration or impact; may affect
measurement. Sudden handset movement or change in
radiation level may also interrupt measurement; try
measuring again.
・Measurement may be disabled depending on handset
status (e.g., other applications are in use).
