RF Safety Information

The handset has an internal antenna located under the bottom of the keypad. For optimum performance with minimum power consumption do not cover the antenna area with your hand. Hold the handset between thumb and finger on the main hinge section. Covering the antenna affects call quality, may cause the handset to operate at higher power level than needed, and may shorten talk and idle times.

Radio Frequency Energy

Your handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimized for best performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low. Under poor network conditions the phone will transmit at a higher power, may get hot and will have a significantly shorter battery life.

Declaration of Conformity

We declare under our sole responsib ility that the product(s) detailed in this manual, and in combination with our accessories, conform with the essential requirements of The Radio Communications Standard (Electro-magnetic Radiation Human Exposure) 2003 and the Australian Communications and Media Authority Section 376 of the Telecommunications Act

1997.

General Safety Information
