Safety Information For Wireless Handheld Phones

Read this section before using your PCD2000A cellular telephone.

Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (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).

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.

Tips On Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently:

Extend your antenna fully. 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 telephones 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

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.

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 be using 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.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

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. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Advanced Functions

When you travel, your PCD2000A has several advanced functions that can put your cellular in service, or eliminate unnecessary long distance or ROAM charges. These functions are:

2 NAM (Number Assignment Module) Selections System Selection SID (System Identification) Selection SID Inhibit See your Uniden Dealer for more explanation of, and

assistance with these functions. To access any of these functions , see page 26.

NAM Selection

If you regularly travel between two different cities, you can have a different telephone number (NAM) assigned to each location. If ROAM is displayed, and you are in one of your NAM locations, then you need to select the proper NAM (NAM 1 or NAM 2).

System Selection

When you re traveling, you may need to change your A/B System so you can eliminate the NO SERVICE indicator. You may also need to select a different system whenever you change the telephone number or select the programmed SID. Some systems are “wireline” (conventional telephone network), and some are “non-wireline.” Ask your service provider for more information about these systems.

The various Modes are:

A-ONLY B-ONLY ATOB BTOA HOME ONLY SID ONLY

Before changing your system, check and record the present system setting.

If you see NSVC on the display for more than a few seconds, the phone is an area that will not support operation in the selected Mode. You must then choose another.

Modes A-ONLY and B-ONLY are used when you travel in areas other than your home area and the cellular coverage is strong wherever you go. If the cellular phone is out of the service provider’s cellular coverage, NSVC is displayed. If you are in a system opposite to your Home System, ROAM is displayed.

HOME is used within your Home Area. It is the system you are authorized on. When you are out of your Home Area,

NSVC is displayed. ATOBand BTOAare used when you travel in areas

where cellular coverage is weak or split into several system types. This allows you to avoid switching back and forth manually, reducing the chances of missing calls. However, you may incur double roaming charges.

Roaming

Many carriers (airtime providers) make arrangements with carriers in other cities to allow use of mobile telephones in areas other than your Home area. If you are traveling in an area where cellular service is provided, and you wish to

use your cellular phone, check with your cellular service company before leaving your Home area. They will give you information about registering and operating your cellular phone in a particular area.

In some cities, depending upon your cellular service company, no registration will be required. You may dial your phone as if you were traveling in your Home area. However, if you call a number local to the area in which you are roaming, first dial the area code of the local number (no need to dial 1 first), then the rest of the phone number. Keep in mind that calls to your Home area may incur long distance charges.

Other areas will require advanced registration. with a major credit card, or may require that al long distance calls be dialed using a telephone credit card or other charge method (collect, third telephone number). Your cellular service company can give you the information before you make the trip. If that is not possible, simply dialing a call will, in many cases, provide needed information.

You may hear a recording (no airtime charge) that gives procedures for roaming calls and connects you immediately (during business hours) to a registration clerk. If you cannot obtain roaming services on one carrier, try switching to the other type. It is important to remember that the ROAM indicator does not mean the phone is authorized to make calls; only that a system other than the Home system is detected.

SID (System Identification)

In general, metropolitan areas are served by more that one service provider. Under certain circumstances you may be roaming in an area that has two A systems or two B systems that overlap, and you could be charged two roaming charges. To prevent this double charging, program the System Identification Number (SID) for that area and then activate the number when you are in that location. (You will get the SID form the service provider in that location.)
