Instructions for safe and efficient use
These instructions are for your own safety and to prevent device malfunction.
Failure to follow these may void your warranty and risk injury or harm.
Safe use and taking care of your device

  • Do not use a damaged device. It may cause injury or harm. If your device is damaged or you aren’t sure if it is working properly, contact your provider to have it checked and repaired.
  • Use Sony original accessories and spare parts. Non-Sony batteries, chargers, and spare parts may pose increased safety risks, such as fire, explosion, leakage, or chemical burns. Sony’s warranty does not cover failures or damage caused by non-Sony batteries, chargers, or spare parts.
  • Do not expose the device to excessive pressure or impact. Doing so may damage your device.
  • Use your device within its IP rating. Conditions, where IP rating limits might be exceeded, include environments with excessive humidity, water depths, liquid pressure, and dust exposure.
  • Treat the device with care and do not expose it to extremely high or low temperatures. Do not expose your device to temperatures below -30°C (-22°F) or above +60°C (+140°F).
  • Do not expose your device to flames or lit tobacco products.
  • Do not attempt to disassemble or modify your device. This device is equipped with an eSIM: do not attempt to modify it.
  • Do not cover the device with your hand as this affects quality and power levels and can shorten communication and standby times.
  • This device contains magnets and radio transmitters, which may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, programmable shunt valves, or other medical devices or equipment. Do not place this device close to such medical devices or persons who use such medical devices (minimum 15 cm (6 inches) between your device and the medical device). Consult your doctor before using this device if you use any such medical device. Turn off your device if you suspect interference.
  • This device and charger may contain small parts that could create a choking hazard or intestinal injuries. Keep this device away from children or other supervised individuals. If you know or suspect that you or anyone has swallowed a small part, seek medical attention immediately.
    Potentially explosive atmospheres
  • It is rare, but your electronic device could generate sparks or interfere with RF-controlled devices, which in potentially explosive areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury or death. Turn off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, in a blasting area, or in areas where the warning “Turn off two-way radio” or other hazard warnings are posted.
    Charging & Battery
  • Unplug the charger before cleaning it to reduce the risk of electric shock.
  • Do not charge the device outdoors or near inflammable material as the heat can cause a fire.
  • Battery performance depends on temperatures, signal strength, usage patterns, features selected, and data transmissions. Using the battery in low temperatures may reduce its capacity.
  • Fully charge the battery before first use.

About RF exposure and Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)
Your device emits low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy when it is powered on and when Bluetooth® functionality is enabled. RF energy exposure from devices is quantified by a unit of measurement called the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR values for this device meet the international SAR limit guidelines and are below the limits specified in those requirements. SAR data information is provided for residents in countries that have adopted the SAR limits recommended by the International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) or the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The ICNIRP specifies Limb SAR limit of 4 W/kg averaged over ten (10) grams of body tissue while the IEEE specifies Extremity SAR limit of 4 W/kg averaged over ten (10) grams of body tissue. These requirements are based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. Tests for SAR levels are conducted using standardized methods with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands in head and body positions. However, since the device is designed to use the minimum power necessary to access a network, the actual SAR level can be well below this value. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various device models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves. The SAR values and test distances differ depending on the measuring method, the device tested, but only the highest SAR values are presented. The WHO (World Health Organization) has stated that current scientific information does not indicate the need for special precautions regarding the use of tablets and phones. For more information on this topic, please visit who. int/emf and refer to Fact sheet No.193 who. int/media center/factsheets/fs193 Electromagnetic fields and public health: mobile phones. Additional SAR-related information can also be found on the Mobile Manufacturers Forum EMF website at emfexplained.info. For further region-specific information about exposure to radio waves (SAR), please see below:

USA, Guam, Puerto Rico & Virgin Islands (US, GU, PR, VI)
This device has been certified in compliance with the government´s requirements for exposure to radio waves. In the United States and Canada, the Extremity SAR limit for devices used by the public is 4 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of body tissue. The standard incorporates a margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Before a device is available for sale to the public in the US, it must be tested and certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it does not exceed the limit established by the government adopted a 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 Authorisation for this device 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 devices, all devices granted an FCC equipment authorization meet the government requirement for safe exposure. SAR information on this device is on file at the FCC and can be found by entering the FCC ID of your device at: transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/. The FCC ID of this device is: AK8VTG100 Carry this device at least 5 mm away from your body to ensure exposure levels remain at or below the as-tested levels.

Canada
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low-power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low-power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. IC: 409B-VTG100 Highest SAR value for EU for this device: 2.241 W/kg (10g), 0mm. Highest SAR value for USA/Canada (FCC/IC) for this device: 1.48 W/kg (1g), 5mm..
