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 website at www.fcc.gov
