CTIA Safety Information
Exposure to radio frequency signals
Your wireless hand held 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 Commissions (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standard bodies:
•
ANSI C95.1 (1992)
•
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
•
ICNIRP (1996)
