SAFETY INFORMATION
Your Phonecell® SX5 Desktop Phone functions as both a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, the SX5D receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The GSM 800 unit oper- ates in the frequency range between 824 and 894 MHz, and the GSM 1900 between 1850 MHz and 1990 MHz. Both employ commonly used phase/frequency modulation techniques. When you use your Phonecell® SX5, the cellular system handling your call controls the power level at which your unit transmits.
Exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) Energy
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in 1992, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF energy. After reviewing the available body of research, more than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industry developed this updated Standard. In March, 1993, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this updated Standard.
The design of your Telular Phonecell® SX5 complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most
Safe Operation Requirement
The Phonecell® SX5 must be either wall mounted or desk mounted and should not be operated when any person is within 203 mm (8 inches) of the antenna.

Antenna Care and Replacement
Do not use the Phonecell® SX5 with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into con- tact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Have your antenna replaced by a qualified technician immediately. Use only a
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular products in the areas where you drive. Some jurisdictions prohibit your using a cellular device while driving a vehicle. Even if your juris- diction does not have such a law, we strongly suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use extreme caution when operating the cellular device while the vehicle is in motion. Always obey the law.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellular devices may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy. You should also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Turn your Phonecell® SX5 OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
