Information about the RF exposure
from FCC
WARNING
Read this information before operating
the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States, with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to radio
frequency (RF) electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standard previously set by
both international and U.S. standards.
The design of this phone complies with FCC
guidelines and these international standards.
Caution
Use only the supplied antenna. Use of
unauthorized antennas, or modifications,
could impair call quality, damage the phone,
void your warranty, or result in a violation of
FCC regulations.
Do not use the phone with a damaged
antenna.
A damaged antenna in contact with the
skin could cause a singe. Contact your local
dealer for an antenna replacement.
Body effects
This device was tested for typical body
operation, keeping a distance of 1.5 cm
(0.59 inch) between the user's body and
the back of the phone. To comply with
RF exposure requirements of the FCC
standards, a minimum distance of 1.5 cm
(0.59 inch) between the user's body and the
back of the phone is required.
Belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories
containing metallic components from others
manufacturers should not be used.
Accessories worn close to the body, without
keeping a minimum distance of 1.5 cm
(0.59 inch) between the user's body and the
back of the phone, and that have not been
37
tested for typical body operation, may not
comply with FCC's RF exposure limits and
should be avoided.
External antenna mounted on the
vehicle (optional, if available)
It must keep a minimum distance of 20
cm (8 inches) between the user / bystander
and the vehicle mounted external antenna,
in order to satisfy FCC's RF exposure
requirements.

42
Avoid damage to your ear
• Damage to your hear can occur due
to constant exposure to excessive high
sound. We, therefore, recommend that
you do not turn on or off the phone near
your ear. We also recommend you be
reasonable with the music and volume
level.
• If you listen to music, please ensure that
the volume level is adequate, so that you
are aware of your surroundings. This is
particularly important when attempting to
cross a street.
Safety instructions
TIA's Safety Information
This includes complete security
information on wireless phones from TIA
(Telecommunications
Industry Association).
It's required, for CTIA Certification, the
inclusion in the user manual of text covering
pacemakers, hearing aids and other medical
devices. It's encouraged the use of the
remaining TIA language when relevant.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable telephone
is a lowpower radio transmitter and receiver.
When it is ON, it receives and also sends
out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August, 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety
levels for handheld wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic evaluations
of the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government
health agencies, and industry reviewed the
43
available body of research to develop
the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
* American National Standards Institute;
National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection.
The design of your phone complies with the
FCC guidelines (and those standards).
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.
44
Driving
Check the laws and regulations related
to the use of wireless phones in the
areas where you drive. Always obey these
regulations. Also, if using your phone while
driving, make sure to:
• Pay full attention to driving; driving safely
is your first responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park, before making
or answering a call, if driving conditions
demand so.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may
not be shielded against the RF signals from
your wireless phone.
Pacemaker
The Medical Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends a minimum
distance of fifteen (15) centimeters, or six
(6) inches, between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker, in order to avoid
potential interference between them.
These advices are consistent with
independent researches, and with
recommendations based on wireless
technology research.
People with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone at least fifteen
centimeters (six inches) from their
pacemaker, whenever the phone is turned
on;
• Not carry the phone in a shirt pocket;
• Use the ear opposite to the pacemaker, to
minimize the potential interference;
• If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your
phone immediately.
45
Hearing Aids
Health Care Facilities
Some digital wireless phones may interfere
with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, we recommend that you
contact your service provider.
Turn off your phone in health care facilities,
whenever there are signs asking you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities may
use equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical
devices, consult your device manufacturer
to determine if they are adequately shielded
from external RF energy. Your doctor can
help you obtain this information.
46
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed
or inadequately shielded devices in motor
vehicles.
Check with the manufacturer, or its
representative, regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer
about any equipment that has been added
to your vehicle.
Facilities with signs
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn off the phone in any facility where
warning signs request you to do so.
Turn off the phone when in an area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey
all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire that could result in personal
injury or death.
Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often clearly marked, but
not always. Among the potentially dangerous
areas are:
Fueling areas (such as gas stations), areas
below deck on boats, facilities where
chemical products are transferred or stored,
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (as
propane or butane), areas where the air
47
Airplanes
FCC regulations prohibit the use of phones
while in the air. Turn off your phone before
boarding an airplane.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations,
turn your phone off when in a 'blasting
area' or in areas with signs that read: 'Turn
off two-way radios' . Obey all signs and
instructions.
contains chemicals or particles (such as
grain, dust or metal powders), and any other
areas where you would normally be advised
to turn off your vehicle engine.
For vehicles equipped with air bags
Air bags inflate with strong force. Do not
place objects in the area over the air bag
or in its deployment area, including wireless
equipment, either installed or portable.
Serious injuries could occur if wireless
equipment is improperly installed into the
car when the air bag inflates.
48
Safety Information
