PS5 Safety Guideline: Keep Eight Inches Between You and the Console
The PS5 safety guide recommends staying at least eight inches (about 0.2 meters) from the console while it’s on to meet FCC and ISED radio‑frequency exposure limits, focusing on the radiator and cooling fan. The 0.2-meter SAR threshold applies to 2.4 GHz Bluetooth energy, and Sony notes that DualSense controllers emit very low RF energy and are considered safe. You can hug the PS5 when it’s off.
