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.
CAUTION
Use only the supplied and approved
antenna. Use of unauthorized
antennas or modifications could
impair call quality, damage the phone,
void your warranty and/or result in
violation of FCC regulations. Do not
use the phone with a damaged
antenna. If a damaged antenna comes
into contact with skin, a minor burn
may result. Contact your local dealer
for a replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical
body-worn operations with the back
of the phone kept 0.6 inches (1.5cm)
between the user’s body and the back
of the phone. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.6 inches
(1.5cm) must be maintained between
the user s body and the back of the

Safety Guidelines
Provided herein is the complete TIA
Safety Information for Wireless
Handheld phones. Inclusion of the
text covering Pacemakers, Hearing
Aids, and Other Medical Devices is
required in the owner’s manual for
CTIA Certification. Use of the
remaining TIA language is encouraged
when appropriate.
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Signal
Your wireless handheld portable
telephone is a lowpower radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is
ON, it receives and also 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) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific
literature. For example, over 120
scientists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed the
available body of research to develop
the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
* American National Standards
Institute; National Council on
Radiation Protection and
Measurements;Interna tional
Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection
The design of your phone complies
with the FCC guidelines (and those
standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved
replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone
and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the
phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna pointed
up and over your shoulder.
24
Safety Guidelines (Continued)
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
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 phones 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 answering a call if
driving conditions so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However,
certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6’) inches
be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker.
These recommendations are
consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone
more than six 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 any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place,
turn your phone OFF immediately.
25
Safety Guidelines (Continued)
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your service
provider.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical
device, consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF
energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this
information.
Health Care Facilities
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
use equipment 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 any equipment that
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility
where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your
phone while in the air. Turn your
phone OFF before boarding an
aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting
operations, turn your phone OFF
when in a ‘blasting areas’ or in areas
posted: ‘Turn off two-way radio’. Obey
all signs and instructions.
