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:
*
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:
pointed up and over your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION:
•
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.
