FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION:
WARNING!! Read this information before using your phone
In August 1986 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in
Report and Outer FCC adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
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 with the back of the phone kept 1.5cm from the
body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1.5cm must be
maintained between the user's body and the back of the phone, including the antenna, whether
extended or retracted. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories containing metallic
components shall not be used. Body-worn accessories
that cannot maintain 1.5cm separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone, and
have not been tested for typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits
and should be avoided.

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 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 standards bodies:
<ANSIC95.1> (1992) / <NCRP Report 86> (1986) / <ICIMIRP> (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). Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a hands-free kit with your phone (such as an
earpiece or headset) to avoid potential exposure to RF energy. The design of your phone complies with
the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
NORMAL POSITION:
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
