United States & Canada
THIS PHONE MODEL HAS BEEN CERTIFIED
IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
The W712a mobile phones have been designed to comply with
applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
to not exceed the limits* of exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy
set by governmental authorities. These limits establish permitted
levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are
based on standards that were developed by international scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific
studies. The standards include a safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all individuals, regardless of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). Tests for SAR are
conducted using standardized methods with the phone transmitting
at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. While
there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phone
models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for
exposure to radio waves. For more information on SAR, please refer
to the safe and efficient use chapter in the User Guide.
The highest SAR value as reported to the authorities for this phone
model when tested for use by the ear is 0.91 W/kg*, and when worn
on the body is 0.42 W/kg* for speech and 0.92 W/kg* for data calls.
Body worn measurements are made while the phone is in use and
worn on the body with a Sony Ericsson accessory supplied with or
designated for use with this phone. It is therefore recommended that
only Ericsson and Sony Ericsson original accessories be used in
conjunction with Sony Ericsson phones.

Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure*. The tests
are performed in positions and locations (i.e., by the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC has
granted an Equipment Authorization for this phone model with all
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones, all mobile phones granted an FCC
equipment authorization meet the government requirement for safe
exposure. SAR information on this phone model is on file at the FCC
and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID
PY7AF042011. Additional information on SAR can be found on the
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) website
at http://phonefacts.net.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one
gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
