FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING! Read this information
before operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) of the United States,
with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326, adopted an
updated safety standard for human
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted
by FCC regulated transmitters.
Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standard previously
set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of
this phone complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international
standards.
Bodily Contact During
Operation
This device was tested for typical
use with the back of the phone
kept 0.59 inches (1.5 cm) from
the body. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.59 inches
(1.5 cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the
back of the phone. Third-party
belt-clips, holsters, and similar
accessories containing metallic
components may not be used.
Avoid the use of accessories that
cannot maintain 0.59 inches (1.5
cm) distance between the user’s
body and the back of the phone
and have not been tested for
compliance with FCC RF exposure
limits.
88
Caution
Use only the supplied antenna.
Use of unauthorized antennas
(or modifications to the antenna)
could impair call quality, damage
the phone, void your warranty
and/or violate FCC regulations.
Don't use the phone with a
damaged antenna. A damaged
antenna could cause a minor skin
burn. Contact your local dealer for
a replacement antenna.
Part 15.19 statement

of FCC rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause
harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Part 15.21 statement
Changes or modifications that
are not expressly approved by
the manufacturer could void the
user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Part 15.105 statement
This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with the
limits for a class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This
equipment generates uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference
to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful
interference or television reception,
which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
- Increase the separation between
the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into
an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is
connected.
89
Safety
- Consult the dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
Consumer Information
About Radio Frequency
Emissions
Your wireless phone, which
contains a radio transmitter and
receiver, emits radio frequency
energy during use. The following
consumer information addresses
commonly asked questions
about the health effects of
wireless phones.
Are wireless phones safe?
Scientific research on the subject
of wireless phones and radio
frequency (“RF”) energy has
been conducted worldwide for
many years, and continues. In
the United States, the Food and
Drug Administration (“FDA”)
and the Federal Communications
Commission (“FCC”) set policies
and procedures for wireless
phones. The FDA issued a website
publication on health issues related
to cell phone usage where it states,
“The scientific community at
large … believes that the weight
of scientific evidence does not
show an association between
exposure to radiofrequency
(RF) from cell phones and
adverse health outcomes. Still
the scientific community does
recommend conducting additional
research to address gaps in
knowledge. That research is being
conducted around the world
and FDA continues to monitor
developments in this field. You can
access the joint FDA/FCC website
at http://www.fda.gov (under
“c”in the subject index, select Cell
Phones > Research). You can also
contact the FDA toll-free at (888)
463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA.
In June 2000, the FDA entered
into a cooperative research and
development agreement through
which additional scientific research
is being conducted. The FCC

What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with
the FDA, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, and other
agencies, established RF
exposure safety guidelines for
wireless phones in the United
States. Before a wireless phone
model is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested by the
manufacturer and certified to
the FCC that it does not exceed
limits established by the FCC.
One of these limits is expressed
as a Specific Absorption Rate, or
“SAR.” SAR is a measure of the rate
of absorption of RF energy in the
body. Tests for SAR are conducted
with the phone transmitting at its
highest power level in all tested
frequency bands. Since 1996, the
FCC has required that the SAR
of handheld wireless phones not
exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram,
averaged over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at
the highest power level, the actual
SAR value of a wireless phone
while operating can be less than
the reported SAR value. This is
because the SAR value may vary
from call to call, depending on
factors such as proximity to a cell
site, the proximity of the phone
to the body while in use, and the
use of hands-free devices. For
more information about SARs,
see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56
and 65 at http://www.fcc.gov/
Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/
Documents/bulletins or visit the
Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association website at
http://www.ctia.org/consumer_
info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You
may also wish to contact the
manufacturer of your phone.
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF,
there are several simple steps
you can take to minimize your
RF exposure. You can, of course,
reduce your talk time. You can
place more distance between your
body and the source of the RF,
as the exposure level drops off
dramatically with distance. The
FDA/FCC website states that
“hands-free kits can be used with
wireless phones for convenience
and comfort. These systems reduce
the absorption of RF energy in the
head because the phone, which is
the source of the RF emissions, will
not be placed against the head.
On the other hand, if the phone is
mounted against the waist or other
part of the body during use, then
91
Safety
that part of the body will absorb
more RF energy. Wireless phones
marketed in the U.S. are required
to meet safety requirements
regardless of whether they are
used against the head or against
the body. Either configuration
should result in compliance with
the safety limit.” Also, if you use
your wireless phone while in a
car, you can use a phone with an
antenna on the outside of the
vehicle. You should also read
and follow your wireless phone
manufacturer’s instructions for the
safe operation of your phone.
Do wireless phones pose any
special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that
“the scientific evidence does not
show a danger to users of wireless
communication devices, including
children.” The FDA/FCC website
further states that “some groups
sponsored by other national
governments have advised that
children be discouraged from
using wireless phones at all”. For
example, the Stewart Report
from the United Kingdom [“UK”]
made such a recommendation in
December 2000. In this report
a group of independent experts
noted that no evidence exists that
using a cell phone causes brain
tumors or other ill effects. [The UK’s] recommendation to limit
cell phone use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not
based on scientific evidence that
any health hazard exists. A copy
of the UK’s leaflet is available at
http://www.dh.gov.uk (search
“mobile”), or you can write to:
NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11
ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of
the UK’s annual reports on mobile
phones and RF are available online
at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://
www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/ (search
“mobile”). Parents who wish to
reduce their children’s RF exposure
may choose to restrict their
children’s wireless phone use.

Consumer Information on
SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This model phone meets the
government's requirements
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 Radio Frequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission
of the U.S. Government. These
limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish 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
using standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the
phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although SAR is
determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level
of the phone while operating can
be well below the maximum value.
Because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels
to use only the power required to
reach the network, in general, the
closer you 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 exceed the limit
established by the governmentadopted requirement for safe
exposure. The tests are performed
in positions and locations (e.g.,
at the ear and worn on the body)
94
as required by the FCC for each
model.
The highest SAR value for this
model phone when tested for use
at the ear is 1.16 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 1.30 W/kg
(body-worn measurements differ
among phone models, depending
upon available accessories and
FCC requirements). While there
may be differences between SAR
levels of various phones and at
various 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 compliance with
the FCC RF emission guidelines.
SAR information 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 ZNFVN280. Additional
information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on
the Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association (CTIA)
website at http://www.ctia.org/.
* In the United States and Canada,
the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is
1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue.
The standard incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection for the
public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
FCC Hearing-Aid
Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless
Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) Report and Order in WT
Docket 01-309 modified the
exception of wireless phones under
the Hearing Aid Compatibility
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to
require digital wireless phones
be compatible with hearing-aids.
The intent of the HAC Act is
to ensure reasonable access to
telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are
used near some hearing devices
(hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a
buzzing, humming, or whining
95
Safety
noise. Some hearing devices are
more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also
vary in the amount of interference
they generate.
The wireless telephone industry
has developed a rating system for
wireless phones, to assist hearing
device users to find phones that
may be compatible with their
hearing devices. Not all phones
have been rated. Phones that are
rated have the rating on their box
or a label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees.
Results will vary depending on
the user's hearing device and
hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to
interference, you may not be able
to use a rated phone successfully.
Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to
evaluate it for your personal needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3
or M4 meet FCC requirements
and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices
than phones that are not labeled.
M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4
meet FCC requirements and are
likely to generate less interference
to hearing devices than phones
that are not labeled. T4 is the
better/ higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated.
Your hearing device manufacturer
or hearing health professional may
help you find this rating. Higher
ratings mean that the hearing
device is relatively immune to
interference noise. The hearing aid
and wireless phone rating values
are then added together. A sum
of 5 is considered acceptable
for normal use. A sum of 6 is
considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing
aid meets the M2 level rating and
the wireless phone meets the
M3 level rating, the sum of the
two values equal M5. This should
provide the hearing aid user with
“normal usage” while using their
hearing aid with the particular
wireless phone. “Normal usage” in
this context is defined as a signal
quality that’s acceptable for normal
operation.
96
The M mark is intended to be
synonymous with the U mark.
The T mark is intended to
be synonymous with the UT
mark. The M and T marks are
recommended by the Alliance for
Telecommunications Industries
Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT
marks are referenced in Section
20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC
rating and measurement procedure
are described in the American
National Standards Institute
(ANSI) C63.19 standard.
When you're talking over the cell
phone, it's recommended you'd
turn the BT (Bluetooth) mode off
for HAC.
For information about hearing
aids and digital wireless phones
Prolonged exposure to loud
sounds (including music) is
the most common cause of
preventable hearing loss. Some
scientific research suggests that
using portable audio devices, such
as portable music players and
cellular telephones, at high volume
settings for long durations may
lead to permanent noise-induced
hearing loss. This includes the
use of headphones (including
headsets, earbuds and Bluetooth
or other wireless devices).
Exposure to very loud sound has
also been associated in some
studies with tinnitus (a ringing in
the ear), hypersensitivity to sound
and distorted hearing. Individual
susceptibility to noise-induced
hearing loss and other potential
hearing problems varies.
The amount of sound produced
by a portable audio device varies
depending on the nature of the
sound, the device, the device
settings and the headphones. You
should follow some commonsense
recommendations when using any
portable audio device:
®
97
Safety
• Set the volume in a quiet
environment and select the
lowest volume at which you can
hear adequately.
• When using headphones, turn
the volume down if you cannot
hear the people speaking near
you or if the person sitting next
to you can hear what you are
listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to
block out noisy surroundings.
If you choose to listen to your
portable device in a noisy
environment, use noisecancelling headphones to block
out background environmental
noise.
• Limit the amount of time you
listen. As the volume increases,
less time is required before your
hearing could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after
exposure to extremely loud
noises, such as concerts, that
might cause temporary hearing
loss. Temporary hearing loss
might cause unsafe volumes to
sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume
that causes you discomfort.
If you experience ringing in
your ears, hear muffled speech
or experience any temporary
hearing difficulty after listening
to your portable audio device,
discontinue use and consult
your doctor.
TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA
Safety Information for wireless
handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Signal
Your wireless handheld portable
phone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When ON,
it receives and sends out Radio
Frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for
handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the
safety standards previously set
by both U.S. and international
standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
