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; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).

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
phone held upright.
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.
Safety Guidelines
61
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 15cm (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 15cm (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 any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your
phone OFF immediately.
