Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use 1
Your terminal is a radio transmitter and receiver. When
the terminal is turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) energy. Depending on the type of termi-
nal you have bought, it operates in different frequency
ranges and employs commonly used modulation tech-
niques. The system that handles your call when you are
using your terminal controls the power level at which
your terminal transmits.
Safety
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
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 Com-
mission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guide-
lines are consistent with the safety standards previously
set by both US and international standards bodies:
• ANSI C95.1 (1992)*
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)*
• ICNIRP (1996)*
Those standards were based on comprehensive and peri-
odic 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 guide-
lines (and those standards).

Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement
antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the phone and may violate
FCC regulations.
Accessories
Use only the supplied belt clip or approved Ericsson
accessory. Use of unauthorized accessories may violate
FCC regulations and should be avoided.
