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
Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the 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).
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.
PHONE OPERATION
▼
Normal Position
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with
the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
▼
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Extend your antenna fully.
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone
is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality
and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed.
