About Bluetooth For your convenience, your new Jitterbug is equipped to utilize Bluetooth wireless headsets, hands-free speakers, and other Bluetooth compatible devices. There are many benefits to using Bluetooth devices. Along with improved ease- of-use and safety by eliminating wires, Bluetooth also offers you plenty of alternative advantages, such as having the ability to talk hands-free while your Jitterbug is in your pocket or purse.
Using Your Jitterbug With Your Bluetooth Headset There are three steps to set up your Jitterbug with a Bluetooth headset: 1. Turning on the Bluetooth feature on your Jitterbug. 2. Setting your Bluetooth headset to Pairing Mode. 3. Setting your Jitterbug to Pairing Mode. Turning The Bluetooth Feature On Your Jitterbug On And Off Turning The Bluetooth Feature On The following procedure is applicable to all Bluetooth compatible devices.

Exposure To Radio Frequency (RF) Signals The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the following information: Do cell phones pose a health hazard? Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause cancer or other serious health hazards.

range. They also emit RF at substantially reduced time intervals when in the stand by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects.
Page 150
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between RF and certain health problems? The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition, attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have shown a connection have failed. The scientific community at large therefore believes that the weight of scientific evidence does not show an association between exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones and adverse health outcomes.

However, the authors determined that biases and errors prevented any conclusions being drawn from this data. Additional information about Interphone can be found at http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not answer all questions about cell phone safety.

Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio Frequency Fields in Childhood and Adolescence (MOBI-KIDS) MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the relationship between exposure to radio frequency energy from communication technologies including cell phones and brain cancer in young people. This is an international multi- center study involving 14 European and non-European countries.

Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF Radiation Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a metallic accessory attached to the phone.
Page 156
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report, a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects.

In both cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of RF energy. The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).

Before a new model phone is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the SAR limit established by the FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in positions and locations (e.g.

Sometimes it may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number.
