RF Safety

8.2.1.1 General
Your GSM terminal based on Integra Wireless CPU
The GSM standard is spread all over the world. It covers Europe, Asia and some parts of America and
Africa. This is the most used telecommunication standard.
Your GSM terminal is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out as well as receives
radio frequency energy. When a GSM application is used, the cellular system which handles your calls
controls both the radio frequency and the power level of your cellular Wireless CPU
8.2.1.2 Exposure to RF Energy
There has been some public concern about possible health effects of using GSM terminals. Although
research on health effects from RF energy has focused on the current RF technology for many years,
scientists have begun research regarding newer radio technologies, such as GSM.
After existing research had been reviewed, and after compliance to all applicable safety standards had been
tested, it has been concluded that the product was fitted for use.
If you are concerned about exposure to RF energy there are things you can do to minimize exposure.
Obviously, limiting the duration of your calls will reduce your exposure to RF energy. In addition, you can
reduce RF exposure by operating your cellular terminal efficiently by following the below guidelines.
8.2.1.3 Efficient Terminal Operation
For your GSM terminal to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality:
• If your terminal has an extendable antenna, extend it fully. Some models allow you to place a call with
the antenna retracted. However, your GSM terminal operates more efficiently with the antenna when it
is fully extended.
• Do not hold the antenna when the terminal is « IN USE ». Holding the antenna affects call quality and
may cause the Wireless CPU
