Safety

Important: Read this information before using your Personal Communicator.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals

Your Personal Communicator is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.

International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996

Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848

United States Federal Communications Commission, Radio Frequency Exposure Guidelines (1996)

National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86

Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6

These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.

The design of your communicator complies with these standards when used normally.

Antenna Care

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