Safety Information for Wireless handled phones
Use of your phone is subject to safety rules designed to protect the user
and his or her environment.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
- Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out 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)
(*)
NCPR 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).
- For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets FCC RF
exposure guidelines when used with an accessory that contains no metal
and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Phone Operation
- Normal position: hold the phone as you would any other phone with the
upper zone (back of the LCD display) pointed up and over your shoulder.
- Tips on efficient operation: for your phone to operate most efficiently: do
not touch cover unnecessarily the top part of the phone with your hand.
This would cover the integrated antenna and affect call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
