● Do not handle a damaged or leaking Li-Ion battery as you can be burned.
● For safe disposal options of your Li-Ion batteries, contact your nearest authorized
service center.
Special Note:
Be sure to dispose of your battery properly. In some areas, the disposal
of batteries in household or business trash may be prohibited.
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and
transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. Your phone is designed to transmit just enough
RF power to reach the network. The system handling your call controls the RF power
level. Depending on network conditions, your phone may operate at an actual SAR level
below the maximum value specified. Your phone is designed not to exceed the
recommended international guidelines for limits on RF exposure.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards described below.
In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI's 1982 standard for safety
levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals.
More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government
health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the
available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid
standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by
the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, always use an appropriate
accessory if using the phone for body worn operations. Accessories used with this phone
for body-worn operations must not contain any metallic components and must provide
at least 0.59 inches (1.5 centimeters) separation distance between the user's body and
the phone, including antennas. Body worn accessories that do not meet these
requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be
avoided.
