SAFETY INFORMATION FOR
WIRELESS HANDHELD PHONES
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR
WIRELESS HANDHELD PHONES
Read this information before using your handheld
portable Cellular Telephone.
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) sig-
nals.
FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
In August 1996, the Feder al Communications Commis-
sion (FCC) of the United States, with its action in Re-
port and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety
standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated trans-
mitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the saf ety
standard previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of this phone complies
with the FCC guidelines and these international stan-
dards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unau-
thorized antennas, damaged antennas, modifications,
or attachments could impair call quality, damage the
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested f or typical body-worn operations
with the BC-9100 belt-clip and LB-9100 holster mod-
els, offered by A udiov o x as an accessory to this phone,
and found to comply with FCC RF exposure require-
ments. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar ac-
cessories should be avoided, as they have not been
tested and may not comply with FCC RF exposure lim-
its.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit
the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov .
PHONE OPERATION
Normal position: Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over
your shoulder.
15
Tips on Efficient Operation:
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
• Extend your antenna fully.
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call
quality and may cause the phone to operate at a
higher power level than otherwise needed.
DRIVING
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving — driving safely is your
first responsibility.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answer-
ing a call if driving conditions so require.
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF sig-
nals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recom-
mends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interf erence with the pace-
maker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wire-
less T echnology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should AL W AYS keep the phone more than six
(6”) inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON.
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.
If you have an y reason to suspect that interfer-
ence is taking place, turn your phone OFF im-
mediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the e vent of such interf erence, you ma y
want to consult your service provider [or call the cus-
tomer service line to discuss alternatives].
16
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are ad-
equately shielded from external RF energy. Your ph ysician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equip-
ment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with
the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of an y
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted no-
tices so require.
AIRCRAFT
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the
air. Switch OFF y our phone bef ore boarding an aircraft.
BLASTING AREAS
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
phone OFF when in a “Blasting area” or in areas posted
“T urn off two-wa y radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and in-
structions. Sparks in such areas could cause an e xplo-
sion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are of-
ten, but not always mark ed clearly. P otential areas ma y
include: fueling areas (such as gasoline stations); be-
low deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane); areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal
powders); and any other area where you would normally
be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place ob-
jects, including either installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is im-
properly installed and the air bag inflates, serious in-
jury could result.

SAR Information
SAR Information
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S RE-
QUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Fed-
eral Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and estab-
lish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population.
The guidelines are based on standards that were developed
by independent scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include
a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of
all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a
unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate,
or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
*
Tests for
SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the
SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the ac-
tual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below
the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the closer y ou are to
a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not ex-
ceed the limit established by the gov ernment-adopted require-
ment for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as re-
quired by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for
this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.48 W/kg
and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide,
is 1.22 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessor ies and FCC re-
quirements). While there may be diff erences between the SAR
levels of various phones and at v arious positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in com-
pliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR informa-
tion on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be
found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/
oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID CJ6DCE42903A.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet As-
sociation (CTIA) web-site at http://phonefacts.net.
*
In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) a veraged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-
stantial margin of safety to give additional protection f or the
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
