WARNING

When using your cellular telephone,

please note that the following

offenses are punishable by fine,

imprisonment, or both:

Using obscene, indecent or profane

language.

Using the phone to give off false

distress calls.

Wiretapping or otherwise

intercepting a telephone call, unless

that person has first obtained the

consent of the parties participating

in the call.

Making anonymous calls to

annoy, harass or molest other

people.

Charging to an account without

authorization to avoid payment for

service.

Refusing to yield line when

informed that it is needed for an

emergency call. (It is also unlawful

to take over a line by stating falsely

that it is needed for an emergency).

The following text is the general

TIA Safety language document. As

this mobile phone is equipped with

an internal antenna some paragraphs

in the below text may be irrelevant.

For more information about the

internal antenna see page 15.

Exposure to radio frequency

signals

Your wireless handheld portable

telephone is a low power radio

transmitter and receiver. When it

is ON, it receives and also sends

out radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal Com-

munications Commission (FCC)

adopted RF exposure guidelines

with safety levels for hand-held

wireless phones. Those guidelines

are consistent with the safety stan-

dards 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 evalua-

tions of the relevant scientific

literature. For example, over 120

scientists, engineers, and physi-

cians 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 com-

plies with the FCC guidelines (and

those standards).

Antenna care

Use only the supplied or an ap-

proved replacement antenna. Un-

authorized antennas, modifications,

or attachments could damage the

phone and may violate FCC regula-

tions.

Phone operation

Nomal 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 effi-

ciently:

• Extend your antenna fully.

• Do not touch the antenna unnec-

essarily 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.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on

the use of wireless telephones in

the areas where you drive. Always

obey them. Also, if using your

phone while driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving –

driving safely is your first responsi-

bility;

• Use hands-free operation, if avail-

able;

• Pull off the road and park before

making or answering a call if driving

conditions so require.

TIA Safety language

User guide S40 US 19/09/01 15:43 Side 4

when in a “blasting area” or in

areas posted: “Turn off two-way

radio.” Obey all signs and instruc-

tions.

Potentially explosive

atmospheres

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 clearly marked. They

include fueling areas such as gaso-

line 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 con-

tains 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

both installed or portable wireless

equipment, in the area over the air

bag or in the air bag deployment

area. If in-vehicle wireless equip-

ment is improperly installed and

the air bag inflates, serious injury

could result.

TIA Safety language

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment

is shielded from RF signals.

However, certain electronic equip-

ment may not be shielded against

the RF signals from your wireless

phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturer’s

Association recommends that a

minimum separation of six (6”)

inches be maintained between a

handheld wireless phone and a

pacemaker to avoid potential inter-

ference 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 inches from their

pacemaker when the phone is

turned ON;

• Should not carry the phone in a

breast pocket;

• Should use the ear opposite the

pacemaker to minimize the poten-

tial for interference.

• If you have any reason to suspect

that interference is taking place,

turn your phone OFF immediately.

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.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal

medical devices, consult the manu-

facturer of your device to deter-

mine if they are adequately shield-

ed from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you

in obtaining this information.

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 be using equipment

that could be sensitive to external

RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly

installed or inadequately shielded

electronic systems in motor vehi-

cles. 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

User guide S40 US 19/09/01 15:43 Side 6

Use your wireless phone to help

others in emergencies.

If you see an auto accident, crime

in progress or other serious emer-

gencies where lives are in danger,

call 9-1-1 or other local emergency

number, as you would want others

to do for you.

Call roadside assistance or a

special non-emergency wireless

assistance number when neces-

sary.

If you see a broken-down vehicle

posing no serious hazard, a broken

traffic signal, a minor traffic acci-

dent where no one appears injured,

or a vehicle you know to be stolen,

call roadside assistance or other

special non-emergency wireless

number.

CTIA Driving safety tips

Your wireless telephone gives you

the powerful ability to communicate

by voice – almost anywhere, any-

time. But an important responsibility

accompanies the benefits of wire-

less phones, one that every user

must uphold.

When driving a car, driving is your

first responsibility. When using

your wireless phone behind the

wheel of a car, practice good com-

mon sense and remember the fol-

lowing tips:

Get to know your wireless

phone and its features such as

speed dial and redial.

If available, these features help you

to place your call without taking

your attention off the road.

When available, use a hands free

device.

If possible, add an additional layer

of convenience and safety to your

wireless phone with one of the

many hands free accessories avail-

able today.

Position your wireless phone

within easy reach.

Be able to access your wireless

phone without removing your eyes

from the road. If you get an incom-

ing call at an inconvenient time, if

possible, let your voice mail answer

it for you.

Let the person you are speaking

with know you are driving; if

necessary, suspend the call in

heavy traffic or hazardous

weather conditions.

Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even

heavy traffic can be hazardous.

Do not take notes or look up

phone numbers while driving.

Jotting down a “to do” list or flip-

ping through your address book

takes attention away from your pri-

mary responsibility – driving safely.

Dial sensibly and assess the

traffic; if possible, place calls

when you are not moving or

before pulling into traffic.

Try to plan calls when your car will

be stationary. If you need to make

a call while moving, dial only a few

numbers, check the road and your

mirrors, then continue.

Do not engage in stressful or

emotional conversations that

may be distracting.

Make people you are talking with

aware you are driving and suspend

conversations which have the

potential to divert your attention

from the road.

Use your wireless phone to call

for help.

Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency

number in the case of fire, traffic

accident or medical emergencies.

Remember, it’s a free call on your

wireless phone.

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE

GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS

FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

Your wireless phone is a radio trans-

mitter and receiver. It is designed and

manufactured not to exceed the emis-

sion limits for exposure to radiofre-

quency (RF) energy set by the Federal

Communications Commission of the

U.S. Government. These limits are

part of comprehensive guidelines and

establish permitted levels of RF ener-

gy for the general population. The

guidelines are based on standards

that were developed by independent

scientific organizations through peri-

odic and thorough evaluation of scien-

tific studies.The standards include a

substantial safety margin designed to

assure the safety of all persons, re-

gardless of age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless

mobile phones employs a unit of

measurement known as the Specific

Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR

limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.*

Tests for SAR are conducted using

standard operating positions accepted

by the FCC with the phone transmit-

ting at its highest certified power level

in all tested frequency bands. Al-

though the SAR is determined at

the highest certified power level, the

actual SAR level of the phone while

operating can be well below the

maximum value.This is because the

phone is designed to operate at multi-

ple power levels so as to use only the

power required to reach the network.

In general, the closer you are to a

wireless base station antenna, the

lower the power output of the mobile

phone.

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 per-

formed in positions and locations

(e.g., at the ear and worn on the

body) to determine SAR compliance

for the particular device at a range of

potential operating positions. The

highest SAR value for this model

phone when tested for use at the ear

is 0.33 W/kg and when worn on the

body in accordance with instructions

in this user guide is 1.54 W/kg. (Body-

worn measurements differ among

phone models, depending upon avail-

able accessories). While there may be

differences between the SAR levels

of various phones and at various posi-

tions, they all meet the government

requirement for RF 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

exposure 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/fccid after

searching on FCC ID NRR-S4X.

Additional information on Specific

Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found

on the Cellular Telecommunications

Industry Association (CTIA) web-site

at http://www.wow-com.com.

NOTE:

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR

limit for mobile phones used by the public is

1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram

of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-

stantial margin of safety to give additional

protection for the public and to account for

any variations in measurements.

Your phone supports WAP

(Wireless Application Protocol)

based services. WAP is a technolo-

gy designed to provide you with

wireless access to the Internet.

The contents of the individual

services depend on the network

service provider, and you must fol-

low the provider’s instructions to

make use of the services.Typical

WAP applications are news, weath-

er forecasts, online banking, flight

schedules, etc.

Before you can use the WAP

services via the telephone, you

must set up the WAP connection

settings in the Message setup

menu (p. 69).Your network service

provider may have already set your

Internet access profiles for you.

In the following description, a

»card« refers to what you see in

one screen on the display. You can

scroll through different cards by

means of the arrow keys. A collec-

tion of cards which belong together

is referred to as a »deck«.

Activating the WAP browser

The WAP browser will be activated

automatically when you have

selected »Browser Menu« in the

List menu.

The first time you activate the WAP

browser, it will take a few seconds

before the Home deck is presented

to you, as the WAP browser needs

to contact the gateway and maybe

calculate a security key.

After this first activation the

Home deck will be stored in the

WAP browser memory cache

allowing immediate display without

connection to the gateway.

The phone will inform you whether

the data transmission between

your phone and the gateway is

secure (encrypted) or not.

Navigating with the WAP

browser

When the connection to the gate-

way has been established, the

Home deck will be shown in the

display.

Some of the listed selection cards

have a number in front of them.To

by means of the arrow keys and con-

firm by pressing »Link«, or press the

corresponding number key. Use the

arrow keys to scroll up and down in

the actual card.

T9®text input feature

This is a feature enabling you to

more easily use SMS messaging.

Unlike the conventional way of en-

tering/editing texts where you have

to press one key up to several

times to enter the desired letter,

the T9 feature allows you to com-

pose text messages with only one

keypress per letter.

T9 Text Input compares your key-

presses to words in its own linguis-

tic database and displays the most

commonly used matching word.

Example: Try to type »Call office«

by pressing the following keys in

order:

As you saw, the displayed word

changed as you typed it. Therefore,

always type to the end of the word

before you start editing.

If the displayed word is the one

you intended, just press to

insert a space before the next word

and continue entering the next

word.

If the displayed word is not the

one you intended, use the arrow

keys and to scroll through

alternative word choices. When you

see the correct word , press

to insert a space before the next

word and continue entering the

next word.

When you have completed your

message, press »ACCEPT« to con-

firm the last word and then »OK«

to send the message.

The first letter will always be capi-

talized, which is indicated by the

symbol in the upper right-hand

corner of the display. The second

letter will automatically be lower-

case. Press if you want to

enter an uppercase letter again.

If you want to activate the caps

lock function, press twice.

While the caps lock is active the

symbol will be seen in the dis-

play. To disable the caps lock func-

tion, just press again.

To enter digits into your message,

press .

A grid of digits appears and you

can press the digit you want to

enter.

In T9 mode, periods, hyphens and

apostrophes are automatically

inserted in the highlighted word by

pressing .

Additional punctuation and sym-

bols can also be accessed by

pressing .You will now have

access to five different pages con-

taining up to 9 symbols each. You

can scroll through the pages by

using the arrow keys.You select

the intended symbol by pressing

the relevant key, e.g. on page one

7 corresponds to “@“. Just press

in a variety of languages and is

independent of the language of

your phone. Normally you will prob-

ably set your phone to your local

language, but from time to time it

might be convenient to select other

languages.

Selection of the T9 language is

explained in the Setup menu under

Message setup (p. 70).

Disabling the T9 feature

If your normal local language is not

supported by the T9 database, you

have to enter your text messages

in the conventional way with multi-

ple presses per letter, and if this is

the case, it may be convenient to

disable the T9 feature.

barred dialing function to be on or

off (only available if you have

defined and stored numbers in the

barred dialing phone book (p. 22).

Facts & Tips

• Encryption means that the network

encrypts conversations to make it dif-

ficult for unauthorised persons to lis-

ten in on them.

• Contact your network operator for

further information on PUK2 and PIN2

codes.

First

Enter the Setup menu

by pressing »MENU«

Select »Security«

Entering the Security menu gives

you different possibilities of pre-

venting misuse of your SIM card

and your telephone, e.g. if your

phone is lost or stolen.

PIN code

Activate PIN

Select whether your

PIN code should be on or off. The

PIN code is a 4 to 8 digit code

which must be entered each time

you switch on your phone.

Change PIN

Change your PIN

code.

Change PIN2

Change your PIN2 code (used on

some SIM cards to access special

functions).

SIM lock

Link your telephone and your SIM

card together by activating the SIM

lock.You will be asked to enter a 6

to 16 digit code of your own

choice.

This means that if for instance

your phone is stolen, it cannot be

used together with another SIM

card.

Network password

Change your network password

(used if you subscribe to a call bar-

ring service).

Facts & Tips

• If you enter an invalid PIN code

three times, your SIM card will be

blocked, and to unblock it you have to

enter the PUK code supplied by

your network operator. This procedure

prevents unauthorised persons from

working out your PIN code by repeat-

edly entering different combinations

of numbers.

• For your own sake, remember to

write down your SIM lock code to be

able to deactivate the lock at a later

time. You have 10 attempts before

the phone is blocked.

• The phone will inform you how

many tries you have left before the

SIM card is blocked. If you enter an

invalid PUK code 10 times, your SIM

card will be permanently blocked and

you have to contact your network

operator.

How much evidence is there that

hand-held mobile phones might

be harmful?

Briefly, there is not enough evi-

dence to know for sure, either way;

however, research efforts are on-

going. The existing scientific evi-

dence is conflicting and many of

the studies that have been done to

date have suffered from flaws in

their research methods.

Animal experiments investigating

the effects of RF exposures charac-

teristic of mobile phones have

yielded conflicting results. A few

animal studies, however, have sug-

gested that low levels of RF could

accelerate the development of can-

cer in laboratory animals.

In one study, mice genetically

altered to be predisposed to devel-

oping one type of cancer devel-

oped more than twice as many

such cancers when they were

exposed to RF energy compared to

controls. There is much uncertainty

among scientists about whether

results obtained from animal stud-

ies apply to the use of mobile

phones.

First, it is uncertain how to apply

the results obtained in rats and

mice to humans.

Second, many of the studies that

showed increased tumor develop-

ment used animals that had already

been treated with cancer-causing

chemicals, and other studies

exposed the animals to the RF vir-

tually continuously – up to 22 hours

per day.

For the past five years in the

United States, the mobile phone

industry has supported research

into the safety of mobile phones.

This research has resulted in two

findings in particular that merit

additional study:

• In a hospital-based, case-control

study, researchers looked for an

association between mobile phone

use and either glioma (a type of

brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma

(a benign tumor of the nerve

sheath). No statistically significant

association was found between

mobile phone use and acoustic

neuroma.

There was also no association

between mobile phone use and

gliomas when all types of gliomas

were considered together. It

should be noted that the average

length of mobile phone exposure in

this study was less than three

years.

When 20 types of glioma were

considered separately, however, an

association was found between

mobile phone use and one rare

type of glioma, neuroepithellioma-

tous tumors. It is possible with

multiple comparisons of the same

sample that this association

occurred by chance.

Moreover, the risk did not

increase with how often the mobile

phone was used, or the length of

the calls. In fact, the risk actually

decreased with cumulative hours

of mobile phone use.

FDA Update on mobile phone safety

The U.S. Food and Drug

Administration’s Center for

Devices and Radiological Health

Consumer Update on Mobile

Phones

FDA has been receiving inquiries

about the safety of mobile phones,

including cellular phones and PCS

phones. The following summarizes

what is known – and what remains

unknown – about whether these

products can pose a hazard to

health, and what can be done to

minimize any potential risk. This

information may be used to

respond to questions.

Why the concern?

Mobile phones emit low levels of

radiofrequency energy (i.e.,

radiofrequency radiation) in the

microwave range while being used.

They also emit very low levels of

radiofrequency energy (RF), consid-

ered non-significant, when in the

stand-by mode. It is well known

that high levels of RF can produce

biological damage through heating

effects (this is how your microwave

oven is able to cook food).

However, it is not known whether,

to what extent, or through what

mechanism, lower levels of RF

might cause adverse health effects

as well.

Although some research has

been done to address these ques-

tions, no clear picture of the biolog-

ical effects of this type of radiation

has emerged to date. Thus, the

available science does not allow us

to conclude that mobile phones are

absolutely safe, or that they are

unsafe.

However, the available scientific

evidence does not demonstrate

adverse health effects associated

with the use of mobile phones.

What kinds of phones are in

question?

Questions have been raised about

hand-held mobile phones, the kind

that have a built-in antenna that is

positioned close to the user’s head

during normal telephone conversa-

tion. These types of mobile phones

are of concern because of the

short distance between the

phone’s antenna – the primary

source of the RF – and the per-

son’s head.

The exposure to RF from mobile

phones in which the antenna is

located at greater distances from

the user (on the outside of a car,

for example) is drastically lower

than that from hand-held phones,

because a person’s RF exposure

decreases rapaidly with distance

from the source.

The safety of so-called “cordless

phones,” which have a base unit

connected to the telephone wiring

in a house and which operate at far

lower power levels and frequen-

cies, has not been questioned.

User guide S40 US 19/09/01 15:44 Side 86

FDA Update on mobile phone safety

In summary, we do not have

enough information at this point to

assure the public that there are, or

are not, any low incident health

problems associated with use of

mobile phones.

FDA continues to work with all

parties, including other federal

agencies and industry, to assure

that research is undertaken to pro-

vide the necessary answers to the

outstanding questions about the

safety of mobile phones.

What is known about cases of

human cancer that have been

reported in users of hand-held

mobile phones?

Some people who have used

mobile phones have been diag-

nosed with brain cancer. But it is

important to understand that this

type of cancer also occurs among

people who have not used mobile

phones.

In fact, brain cancer occurs in the

U.S. population at a rate of about 6

new cases per 100,000 people

each year. At that rate, assuming

80 million users of mobile phones

(a number increasing at a rate of

about 1 million per month), about

4800 cases of brain cancer would

be expected each year among

those 80 million people, whether or

not they used their phones.

Thus it is not possible to tell

whether any individual’s cancer

arose because of the phone, or

whether it would have happened

anyway. A key question is whether

the risk of getting a particular form

of cancer is greater among people

who use mobile phones than

among the rest of the population.

One way to answer that question

is to compare the usage of mobile

phones among people with brain

cancer with the use of mobile

phones among appropriately

matched people without brain can-

cer. This is called a case-control

study.

The current case-control study of

brain cancers by the National

Cancer Institute, as well as the fol-

low-up research to be sponsored

by industry, will begin to generate

this type of information.

What is FDA’s role concerning

the safety of mobile phones?

Under the law, FDA does not

review the safety of radiation-emit-

ting consumer products such as

mobile phones before marketing,

as it does with new drugs or med-

ical devices.

However, the agency has authori-

ty to take action if mobile phones

are shown to emit radiation at a

level that is hazardous to the user.

In such a case, FDA could require

the manufacturers of mobile

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

do not justify FDA regulatory

actions at this time, FDA has urged

the mobile phone industry to take a

number of steps to assure public

Most cancer causing agents

increase

risk with increased expo-

sure. An ongoing study of brain

cancers by the National Cancer

Institute is expected to bear on the

accuracy and repeatability of these

results. 1)

• Researchers conducted a large

battery of laboratory tests to

assess the effects of exposure to

mobile phone RF on genetic mate-

rial. These included tests for several

kinds of abnormalities, including

mutations, chromosomal aberra-

tions, DNA strand breaks, and

structural changes in the genetic

material of blood cells called lym-

phocytes.

None of the tests showed any

effect of the RF except for the

micronucleous assay, which

detects structural effects on the

genetic material. The cells in this

assay showed changes after expo-

sure to simulated cell phone radia-

tion, but only after 24 hours of

exposure. It is possible that expos-

ing the test cells to radiation for

this long resulted in heating.

Since this assay is known to be

sensitive to heating, heat alone

could have caused the abnormali-

ties to occur. The data already in

the literature on the response of

the micronucleus assay to RF are

conflicting. Thus follow-up research

is necessary. 2)

FDA is currently working with

government, industry, and academ-

ic groups to ensure the proper fol-

low-up to these industry-funded

research findings.

Collaboration with the Cellular

Telecommunications Industry

Association (CTIA) in particular is

expected to lead to FDA providing

research recommendations and sci-

entific oversight of new CTIA-fund-

ed research based on such recom-

mendations.

Two other studies of interest

have been reported recently in the

literature:

• Two groups of 18 people were

exposed to simulated mobile

phone signals under laboratory con-

ditions while they performed cogni-

tive function tests.There were no

changes in the subjects’ ability to

recall words, numbers, or pictures,

or in their spatial memory, but they

were able to make choices more

quickly in one visual test when

they were exposed to simulated

mobile phone signals. This was the

only change noted among more

than 20 variables compared. 3)

• In a study of 209 brain tumor

cases and 425 matched controls,

there was no increased risk of

brain tumors associated with

mobile phone use. When tumors

did exist in certain locations, how-

ever, they were more likely to be

on the side of the head where the

mobile phone was used. Because

this occurred in only a small num-

ber of cases, the increased likeli-

hood was too small to be statisti-

cally significant. 4)

with distance. For example, they

could switch to

• A mobile phone in which the

antenna is located outside the vehi-

cle,

• A hand-held phone with a built-in

antenna connected to a different

antenna mounted on the outside of

the car or built into a separate

• A headset with a remote antenna

safety. The agency has recom-

mended that the industry:

• Support needed research into

possible biological effects of RF of

the type emitted by mobile

phones;

• Design mobile phones in a way

that minimizes any RF exposure to

the user that is not necessary for

device function; and

• Cooperate in providing mobile

phone users with the best possible

information on what is known

about possible effects of mobile

phone use on human health.

At the same time, FDA belongs

to an interagency working group of

the federal agencies that have

responsibility for different aspects

of mobile phone safety to ensure a

coordinated effort at the federal

level. These agencies are:

• National Institute for Occupational

Safety and Health

• Environmental Protection Agency

• Federal Communications

Commission

• Occupational Health and Safety

Administration

• National Telecommunications and

Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health

also participates in this group.

In the absence of conclusive

information about any possible

risk, what can concerned indi-

viduals do?

If there is a risk from these prod-

ucts—and at this point we do not

know that there is—it is probably

very small. But if people are con-

cerned about avoiding even poten-

tial risks, there are simple steps

they can take to do so.

For example, time is a key factor

in how much exposure a person

receives.Those persons who

spend long periods of time on their

hand-held mobile phones could

consider holding lengthy conversa-

tions on conventional phones and

reserving the hand-held models for

shorter conversations or for situa-

tions when other types of phones

are not available.

People who must conduct ex-

tended conversations in their cars

every day could switch to a type of

mobile phone that places more dis-

tance between their bodies and the

source of the RF, since the expo-
