Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic evalua-

Tips on efficient operation: For
your phone to operate most effi-
ciently:
• Extend your antenna fully.
• Do not touch the antenna unnec-
essarily 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.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on
the use of wireless telephones in
the areas where you drive. Always
obey them. Also, if using your
phone while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving –
driving safely is your first responsi-
bility;
• Use hands-free operation, if avail-
able;
• Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
