RadioFrequency(RF)Energy

UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates

Yourphone is basically a radio transmitterand receiver.When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use yourphone, the system handling yourcall controls the powerlevel.This powercan range from 0.006 watt to 0.2watt in digital mode.

KnowingRadioFrequencySafety

The design of yourphone complies with updated NCRP standards described below.

In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982standard forsafety levels with respect to human exposure to RFsignals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries developed this updated standard afterreviewing the available body of research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEEstandard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

Body-WornOperation

To maintain compliance with FCC RFexposure guidelines, if you weara handset on yourbody, use the Sprint supplied or

approved carrying case, holsterorotherbody-worn accessory. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least 7/16 inch (1.5 centimeters)from yourbody when transmitting. Use of non-Sprint-approved accessories may violate FCC RFexposure guidelines.

SpecificAbsorptionRates(SAR)forWireless Phones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a userof a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represent how much RFthe phone emits. All phone models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the FCC.This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station antenna, phone design and otherfactors.What is important to rememberis that each phone meets strict federal guidelines.Variations in SARs do not represent a variation in safety.

All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not mean variations
