The following FCC statement applies only to the version of this model manufactured for sale in the USA. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that are deemed to comply without testing of specific absorption rate(SAR). Notice for customers: the following information is only applicable to equipment sold in countries applying EU directives Manufacturer: Sony Corporation, 1-7-1 Konan Minato-ku Tokyo, 108-0075 Japan For EU product compliance: Sony Deutschland GmbH, Hedelfinger Strasse 61, 70327 Stuttgart, Germany Disposal of waste batteries and electrical and electronic equipment (applicable in the European Union and other European countries with separate collection systems) This symbol on the product, the battery or on the packaging indicates that the product and the battery shall not be treated as household waste. On certain batteries this symbol might be used in combination with a chemical symbol. The chemical symbols for mercury (Hg) or lead (Pb) are added if the battery contains more than 0.0005% mercury or 0.004% lead. By ensuring these products and batteries are disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potentially negative consequences for the environment and human health which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling. The recycling of the materials will help to conserve natural resources. In case of products that for safety, performance or data integrity reasons require a permanent connection with an incorporated battery, this battery should be replaced by qualified service staff only. To ensure that the battery and the electrical and electronic equipment will be treated properly, hand over these products at end-of-life to the applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. For all other batteries, please view the section on how to remove the battery from the product safely. Hand the battery over to the applicable collection point for the recycling of waste batteries. For more detailed information about recycling of this product or battery, please contact your local Civic Office, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product or battery. Applicable accessories: Headphones For users in Canada Listening for a Lifetime Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)® and the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level; a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without damaging your sensitive hearing. Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts. TO ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL: ・Set your volume control to the lowest level where you can hear the music comfortably and clearly. Prolonged exposure to anything over 85 decibels can cause gradual hearing loss. ・Once you have established a sound level where you can hear the audio…

UL Japan, Inc. Shonan EMC Lab. 1-22-3 Megumigaoka, Hiratsuka-shi, Kanagawa-ken, 259-1220 JAPAN Telephone: +81 463 50 6400 Facsimile: +81 463 50 6401 May 15, 2015 UL Japan, Inc. 4383-326 Asama-cho, Ise-shi, Mie 516-0021 Japan FCC ID: AK8NWZX100 To whom it may concern, We, UL Japan, Inc., hereby declare that Digital Music Player, model : NW-ZX100 (FCC ID: AK8NWZX100) of Sony Corporation is exempt from RF exposure SAR evaluation as its output power meets the exclusion limits stated in FCC Part 2 §2.1093. KDB 447498D01(v05r02) has the following exclusion for portable devices: The 1g and 10g SAR test exclusion thresholds for 100 MHz to 6 GHz at test separation distances < 50 mm are determined by: [(measured maximum average output power(mW))/(Minimum separation distance(mm))]•[ √ f (GHz)] < 3.0 for 1g SAR and < 7.5 for 10g extremity SAR where • f(GHz) is the RF channel transmit frequency in GHz • Power and distance are rounded to the nearest mW and mm before calculation • The result is rounded to one decimal place for comparison The test exclusions are applicable only when the minimum test separation distance is < 50 mm and for transmission frequencies between 100 MHz and 6 GHz. When the minimum test separation distance is < 5 mm, a distance of 5 mm is applied to determine SAR test exclusion. This device f = 2.48 GHz, distance = 5mm (minimum separation distance: 5 mm was used in the calculation) and the measured maximum average output power was 7 mW So for this device: 7 mW [measured maximum average output power] / 5 mm [minimum separation distance] * ( √ 2.48) = 2.2 *This is less than 3.0, so no SAR is required. Even taking into account the tolerance, this device can be satisfied with the limits. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Toyokazu Imamura Leader Consumer Technology Division UL Japan, Inc.
