Tips on Efficient Operation:
• For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
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.
• American National Standards Institute;
National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurements;
International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
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 responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before making
or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six(6") inches be maintained
between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more
than six inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference
