Information
This model P-01H mobile phone complies
with Japanese technical regulations and
inter
national guidelines regarding exposure to
radio w
aves.
This mobile phone w
as designed in
observ
ance of Japanese technical regulations
r
egarding exposure to radio waves
※1
and limits
to exposure to radio waves recommended by
a set of eq
uiv
alent international guidelines.
This set of international guidelines w
as set
out by the International Commission on
Non
-
Ionizing Radiation P
rotection (ICNIRP),
whic
h is in collaboration with the World Health
O
rganization (WHO), and the permissible limits
include a substantial saf
ety mar
gin designed
to assure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health condition.
The tec
hnical regulations and international
guidelines set out limits f
or radio w
aves as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, whic
h is the
value of absorbed energy in any 10 grams of
tissue o
ver a 6
-
minute per
iod. The SAR limit
for mobile phones is 2.0 W/kg.
The highest S
AR v
alue for this mobile phone
when tested for use at the ear is 0.91
1 W/kg
※2
and when wor
n on the body is 0.542 W/kg
※3
.
There may be slight differences between
the S
AR levels for each product, but they all
satisfy the limit.
The actual S
AR of this mobile phone while
operating can be w
ell belo
w that indicated
above. This is due to automatic changes to the
p
ower level of the device to ensure it only uses
the minimum r
eq
uired to reach the network.
Therefore in general, the closer you are to a
base station, the lo
wer the po
wer output of
the device.
This mobile phone can be used in positions
other than against y
our ear
. Please keep the
mobile phone farther than 1.5 cm a
way from
your body by using such as a carrying case
or a w
earable accessory without including
an
y metals. This mobile phone satisfies
the tec
hnical regulations and international
guidelines.
The
World Health Organization has stated
that “a lar
ge number of studies have been
p
erformed over the last two decades to assess
whether mobile phones pose a potential
health r
isk. To date, no adverse health effects
ha
ve been established as being caused by
mobile phone use.
