FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
In August 1986 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of
the United States with its action in Report and Outer FCC 96-326
adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio fre-
quency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated trans-
mitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The
design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized anten-
nas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage
the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please con-
tact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Warning! Read this information before using your
phone
