Table of ContentsFCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
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 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.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,
damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.
Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations using the
optional belt-clip/holster placed 0.7 inches (1.8cm) from the body.
To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the phone, including the antenna,
whether extended or retracted. The use of third-party belt-clips/
holsters with no metallic components that provide the minimum
separation distance of 0.7 inches (1.8cm) can be used to satisfy
FCC RF exposure requirements. The use of non-tested accessories
or other body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided. Contact your local
dealer for optional accessory items.
Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if
available.)
A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must be
maintained between a person and the vehicle mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC web
site at www.fcc.gov
