Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

The mobile phone is one of the most exciting and inno- vative products ever developed. Your phone can help you to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency services and others.

Safety

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Com- mission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guide- lines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both US and international standards bodies:

•ANSI C95.1 (1992)*

•NCRP Report 86 (1986)*

•ICNIRP (1996)*

Those standards were based on comprehensive and peri- odic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and

industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guide- lines (and those standards).

*American National Standards Institute: National Coun- cil on Radiation Protection and Measurements; Interna- tional Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.

TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: For your phone to operate most efficiently:

•Extend your antenna fully (where applicable).

•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.
