information obtained from intercepting or "listening in on" conversations
intended for others, you should not assume that your conversation is
completely secure.
Interference - No person shall interfere with, or cause interference to, any
radio communication or signal.
Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT
For safe and efficient operation of your phone, observe these guidelines.
Your CDMA PCS telephone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. When the phone is ON, it receives and sends out radio frequency
(RF) energy. The phone operates in the frequency range of 1851 MHz to 1988
MHz. When you use your phone, the cellular system handling your call
controls the power level at whcih your phone transmis.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Research on health effects from RF energy has focused for many years on FM
radio technology. That research and studies regarding newer radio
technologies, such as CDMA, have found no credible scientific evidence that
adverse health effects result from the use of cellular telephones.
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 1991, and The
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1992, updated the 1982
ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF
energy. Over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and industry, reviewed the available research
and developed this updated Standard. In March 1993, the U.S.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this
updated Standard.
The design of your phone complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if
you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard,
you may choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone
in the most power efficient manner.
