76 Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Guidelines for Safe
and Efficient Use
Note! Read this information before using your portable phone
Since its introduction in the mid 1980s the portable phone is one of
the most exciting and innovative products ever developed. With it,
you can stay in contact with your office, your home, emergency serv-
ices, and others.
Your telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. Depending
upon the type of mobile phone you have purchased, it operates in dif-
ferent frequency ranges and employs commonly used modulation
techniques. When you use your phone, the system handling your call
controls the power level at which your phone transmits.
For the safe and efficient operation of your phone, observe these
guidelines.
The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP), sponsored by the World Health Organization (WHO), pub-
lished a statement in 1996 which sets limits for exposure to RF fields
from handheld mobile phone. According to this statement, which is
based on the available body of research, there is no evidence that
mobile terminals meeting the recommended limits can cause any
adverse health effects. All Ericsson telephones conform to the
ICNIRP recommendations, and international exposure standards,
such as:
• CENELEC European Pre-standard ENV50166-2
• ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 (USA, Asia- Pacific)
If you want to limit RF exposure even further, you may choose to
control the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most
power efficient manner.
