SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS
HANDHELD PHONES
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR
FCC RF EXPOSURE
WARNING! READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING
CAUTIONS
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United
States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. 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.
BODY-WORN OPERATION
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of
the phone kept 2.0 cm. from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF
exposure requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that
maintain a 2.0 cm. separation distance between the user's body and the back
of the phone, including the antenna. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar
accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, and should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website
at www.fcc.gov.
