FCC RF Exposure Information
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 U.S.
and international standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines
and these international standards.
Bodily Contact During Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches (1 cm) from
the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of
0.39 inches (1 cm) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone.
Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not
be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1 cm) distance between
the user’s body and the back of the phone and have not been tested for compliance with FCC
RF exposure limits.
Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements, keep 8 inches (20 cm) between the user / bystander
and vehicle-mounted external antenna. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC
website at www.fcc.gov.

Don’t use the phone with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna could cause a minor skin
burn. Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.
Consumer Information About Radio Frequency Emissions
Your wireless phone, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits radio frequency energy
during use. The following consumer information addresses commonly asked questions about the
health effects of wireless phones.
Are wireless phones safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency (“RF”) energy has been
conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United States, the Food and Drug
Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) set policies and
procedures for wireless phones. The FDA issued a website publication on health issues related to
cell phone usage where it states, “The scientific community at large … believes that the weight
of scientific evidence does not show an association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF)
from cell phones and adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community does recommend
conducting additional research to address gaps in knowledge. That research is being conducted
around the world and FDA continues to monitor developments in this field. You can access
the joint FDA/FCC website at http://www.fda.gov (under “C” in the subject index, select Cell
Phones > Research). You can also contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-
FDA. In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development agreement
through which additional scientific research is being conducted. The FCC issued its own website
publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence that proves that wireless phone usage can
lead to cancer or a variety of other problems, including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.”
This publication is available at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety or through the FCC at (888) 225-
5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.
For Your Safety
101
What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other
agencies, established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless phones in the United States.
Before a wireless phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested by the
manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed limits established by the FCC.
One of these limits is expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a measure of
the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone
transmitting at its highest power level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has
required that the SAR of handheld wireless phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged
over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the actual SAR value of a wireless
phone while operating can be less than the reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value
may vary from call to call, depending on factors such as proximity to a cell site, the proximity of
the phone to the body while in use, and the use of hands-free devices. Before a phone model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed
the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.86 W/kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.28 W/kg (body-worn measurements
differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC ID ZNFD500.
For more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65 at http://www.fcc.gov/
Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins or visit the Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association website at http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You may
also wish to contact the manufacturer of your phone.
102
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to minimize your RF
exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time. You can place more distance between your
body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The
FDA/FCC website states that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head because the phone,
which is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand,
if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of
the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet
safety requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head or against the body.
Either configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you use your wireless
phone while in a car, you can use a phone with an antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should
also read and follow your wireless phone manufacturer’s instructions for the safe operation of your
phone.
Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does not show a danger to users
of wireless communication devices, including children.” The FDA/FCC website further states
that “some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at all”. For example, the Stewart Report from the United
Kingdom [“UK”] made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a group of
independent experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors
or other ill effects. [The UK’s] recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A copy of
the UK’s leaflet is available at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search “mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB,
Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports on mobile
phones and RF are available online at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/
(search “mobile”). Parents who wish to reduce their children’s RF exposure may choose to restrict
their children’s wireless phone use.
Where can I get further information about RF emissions?

TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When ON, it
receives and 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)
For Your Safety
105
* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements; International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
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 available body of research to develop the
ANSI Standard (C95.1).
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.
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:
Don’t 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.
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.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six
(6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON;
106
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to
discuss alternatives).
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should
also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before
boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in
areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always marked clearly. Potential
areas may include: fueling areas (such as gasoline stations); below deck on boats; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal
powders); and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health
Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:
1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using
wireless phones.
There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels
of Radio Frequency (RF) energy in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low
levels of RF when in idle mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse
health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effects.
Some studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur, but such findings have not
been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in
reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
108
2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products
such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices.
However, the agency has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit Radio
Frequency (RF) energy at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, the FDA could
require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair,
replace, or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
Although the existing scientific data does not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged
the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless
phones;
• Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not
necessary for device function; and
• Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible
effects of wireless phone use on human health.
The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility
for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following
agencies belong to this working group:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group activities, as well.
The FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety
guidelines that limit RF exposure. The FCC relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon. While these
base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures
that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they
can get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions
For Your Safety
109
discussed in this document.
3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term “wireless phone” refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas, often
called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to
measurable Radio Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance between the phone and
the user’s head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice
of the FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater
distances from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure
decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,”
which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far
lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.
4. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered
from flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of Radio
Frequency (RF) energy exposures characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting
results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories. A few animal studies, however,
have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory
animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals
that had been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-
disposed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals
to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are not similar to the conditions under which
people use wireless phones, so we do not know with certainty what the results of such studies
mean for human health. Three large epidemiology studies have been published since December
2000. Between them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of
wireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors
of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies demonstrated the
existence of any harmful health effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the
studies can answer questions about long-term exposures, since the average period of phone use
in these studies was around three years.
110
5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless
phones poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless
phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could
be completed in a few years. However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide
reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data
that is directly applicable to human populations, but ten or more years follow-up may be needed
to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the interval
between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors develop — if they
do — may be many, many years. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by
difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many
factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of
phone is used.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of
wireless phone RF?
The FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators
around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies are conducted to address important
questions about the effects of exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International Electro
Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has
been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment
of new research programs around the world. The project has also helped develop a series of
public information documents on EMF issues.
The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research And Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone
safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,
industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts with
independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of
wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research
needs in the context of the latest research developments around the world.

7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can get by
using my wireless phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC established these
guidelines in consultation with the FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies. The
FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless phones is set at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by
the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability to
remove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is set well below
levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of wireless phones must report the RF exposure level
for each model of phone to the FCC. The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives
directions for locating the FCC identification number on your phone so you can find your phone’s
RF exposure level in the online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming
from wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for
measuring the Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure from wireless phones and other wireless
handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard,
“Recommended Practice for Determining the Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in
the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth
the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the
heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human
head. Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency of
measurements made at different laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the measurement of
the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the body.
It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine
whether a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.
112
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy
from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products — and at this point we do not know that there is — it is
probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take
a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is a
key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a
wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless
phone every day, you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF,
since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a
headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected
to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data does not demonstrate that wireless phones are
harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use
measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.
10. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children
and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy,
the measures described above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the user and the
RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United
Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted
that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not
based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.
11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices.
For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic
Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones.
This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association for the Advancement
of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the FDA, medical device
For Your Safety
113
manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow
manufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone
EMI.
The FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped
develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and performance requirements for hearing aids and
wireless phones so that no interference occurs when a person uses a “compatible” phone and a
“compatible” hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other
medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to
assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

HAC statement
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies that it uses.
However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been
tested yet for use with hearing aids.
It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations,
using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise.
Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid
compatibility.
If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or phone
retailer.
FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC) Regulations for Wireless Devices
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are
more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount of
interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for wireless phones, to assist
hearing device users to find phones that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all
phones have been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label located on
the box.
The ratings are not guarantees.
Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone successfully.
Trying out the phone with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the
two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are not labeled. T4 is the better/higher of the
For Your Safety
115
two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health
professional may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is
relatively immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone rating values are then
added together. A sum of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use.
A sum of 6 is considered for best use.
In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets
the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid
user with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the particular wireless phone. “Normal
usage” in this context is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T mark is intended to be
synonymous with the UT mark.
The M and T marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications Industries
Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules.
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
To enter that the Hearing Aid Compatibility rating for your phone is maintained, secondary
transmitters such as Bluetooth and WLAN(this phone does not have WLAN) components must
be disabled during a call.
