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

minimum separation distance
of 2cm (0.79 inches) must
be maintained between the
user’s body and the back of
the phone. Third-party beltclips, holsters, and similar
accessories containing metallic
components should not be
used. Body-worn accessories
that cannot maintain 2cm (0.79
inches) separation distance
between the user’s body and
the back of the phone, and
have not been tested for typical
body-worn operations may not
comply with FCC RF exposure
limits and should be avoided.
