Continued 176 Other Information RECYCLING LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES Lithium-ion batteries are recyclable. You can help preserve our environment by returning your used rechargeable batteries to the collection and recycling location nearest you. For more information regarding recycling of rechargeable batteries, call toll free 1-800-822-8837, or visit http://www.rbrc.org/. Caution: Do not handle damaged or leaking Lithium-
ion batteries. Radio Frequency exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) This Reader is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency fields). Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines, developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP and IEEE, through periodic and through evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the general population. The levels include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, and to account for any variations in measurements. SAR is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a Reader. Continued 177 Other Information The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the Reader while it is operating can be well below this value. This is because the Reader is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network. Variation in SAR below the radio frequency exposure guidelines do not mean that there are variations in safety. While there may be difference in SAR levels among Readers, all Sony Reader models are designed to meet radio frequency exposure guidelines. The tests are performed in positions and locations as required by FCC for each model. This Reader model PRS-900 has been designed to comply with applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. These requirements are based on scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardized methods with the Reader transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used frequency bands. SAR data information for residents in countries that have adopted the SAR limit recommended by the ICNIRP, which is 2W/kg averaged over 10g of issue. In other countries, such as the US, the adopted limit is 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1g of issue. Continued 178 Other Information In order to meet RF Exposure guidelines, follow the steps of Attaching the supplied cover PRSA-ZC9
page 2) before using the Reader. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF Exposure guidelines. On the battery pack If the battery pack is mishandled, the battery pack can burst, cause a fire or even chemical burns. Observe the following cautions. Do not disassemble.

(60C) such as in direct sunlight or in a car parked in the sun. Do not incinerate or dispose of in fire. Continued 179 Other Information Do not handle damaged or leaking lithium ion batteries. Since battery liquid may remain in the Reader, consult your nearest Sony dealer or Sony Service Center if the battery pack has leaked. If the liquid comes in contact with your eyes, do not rub your eyes as this may lead to blindness. Wash out your eyes with clean water, and consult a doctor immediately. Also, if the liquid contacts your body or clothes, wash it off immediately; otherwise, it may cause burns or injury. If you suffer burns or other injury by the liquid from the battery pack, consult a doctor immediately. Be sure to charge the battery pack using the Reader that can charge the battery pack. Keep the battery pack out of the reach of small children. When you do not intend to use the Reader for a long time, remove the battery pack from the Reader.
