SAFETY INFORMATION
To ensure safe and efficient operation, please read the following information and observe
these guidelines whenever using your
®
Your Phonecell
SX5 Desktop Phone functions as both a radio transmitter and receiver. When it
is ON, the SX5D receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The GSM 800 unit oper-
ates in the frequency range between 824 and 894 MHz, and the GSM 1900 between 1850 MHz
and 1990 MHz. Both employ commonly used phase/frequency modulation techniques. When
®
you use your Phonecell
SX5, the cellular system handling your call controls the power level at
which your unit transmits.
Exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) Energy
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in 1992, the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF energy. After reviewing the available body of research, more
than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies
and industry 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 Telular Phonecell
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.
Safe Operation Requirement
®
The Phonecell
SX5 must be either wall mounted or desk mounted and should not be operated
when any person is within 8 inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna.
Temperature Environment
Operating Temperature: From -20°C to +60°C ; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condens-
ing).
Storage Temperature: From -25°C to +75°C; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Antenna Care and Replacement
®
Do not use the Phonecell
SX5 with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Have your antenna replaced by a qualified tech-
nician immediately. Use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifi-
cations, or attachments could damage the Phonecell
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular products in the areas where you drive.
Some jurisdictions prohibit your using a cellular device while driving a vehicle. Even if your juris-
diction does not have such a law, we strongly suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use
extreme caution when operating the cellular device while the vehicle is in motion. Always obey
the law.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellu-
lar devices may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and
entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy. You should also
check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids,
etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
®
Turn your Phonecell
SX5 OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.
