If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, etc.), you may
first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency
call. Consult this document and your local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless
phone may be the only means of communication at the scene of an
accident - do not cut off the call until given permission to do so.
Radio frequency (RF) 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 Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld
wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP 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).
