Safety - Motorola V8088 Manual

For the efficient and safe operation of your wireless
handheld portable telephone, observe these guidelines.
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.
European and International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection
of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Verband Deutscher Elektringenieure (VDE) DIN-0848
• Directives of the European Community, Directorate General V in Matters of Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Energy
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE.C95.1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86
• Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI Standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used normally.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna. Unauthorised 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.
Tips on Efficient Operation: For your phone to operate most efficiently:
• Extend your antenna fully (if applicable).
• 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.
Batteries
! All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a conductive
material such as jewellery, keys or beaded chains touches exposed
terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite
hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise care in
handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your
pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. When the battery is
detached from the phone, your batteries are packed with a protective
battery cover; please use this cover for storing your batteries when not in
use.
