3Rules and regulationsThe U.S. Federal CommunicationsCommission and the Industry Canadaregulate cellular telephone service intheir respective countries. It isimportant for you, the cellulartelephone user, to observe theapplicable regulations when operatingyour cellular telephone in eithercountry. In addition to these U.S. andCanadian federal regulations, you maybe bound also by certain state,provincial, territorial, and local rulesand regulations, as well as by yourcellular carrier’s tariff (the rates, terms,and conditions of its service). If youwish to use your cellular telephone inboth the U.S. and Canada, pleaseconsult with your System Operator.Furthermore, you should remember thatyour cellular telephone is aradiotelephone, — i.e., it combines bothwireline technology, as used in yourhome or office telephone system, andradio technology — and that the scopeof regulations and precautions istherefore broader than the scope ofregulations and precautions relating towireline-only telephone usage.Some of the major points ofconsideration are set out below. Pleasenote, however, that these “Rules andRegulations" and "Safety Precautions”sections do not constitute legal advice,and are intended merely for generalinformation purposes. If you havespecific questions, please contact yourcellular carrier (System Operator).License — If your home system is in theU.S., you do not require a separatelicense to operate your cellulartelephone; obtaining a cellulartelephone access number is sufficient toregister you as a user. If your homesystem is in Canada, a separate licenseis required; your carrier will assist youin the licensing process. If you wish touse your cellular phone on both sides ofthe border, please contact your cellularcarrier (System Operator).Equipment modifications — The U.S.Federal Communications Commissionhas type-approved the model of cellulartelephone which you have purchased,and has allocated a specific frequencyrange for cellular service. No changes oradjustments are to be made to yourcellular telephone.The radio equipment shall be madeavailable for inspection upon request byrepresentatives of the FCC or licensees.Denial of service — A cellular carriermay deny service temporarily orterminate service for violation of anygovernment regulations or violation ofits tariff.Privacy — As a telephone user, you havecome to assume a certain standard ofprivacy when you place or receive atelephone call via the traditional wirelinesystems. However, because cellulartelephones utilize radio transmissions toeffect calls, the same standard cannotalways be assured. While it is unlawfulfor any unauthorized person to divulgeor use any information obtained fromintercepting or “listening in on”conversations intended for others, youshould not assume that yourconversation is completely secure.Commercially available scanningequipment can permit a third party tomonitor the radio channels used forcellular telephone calls.Interference — No person shallinterfere with, or cause interference to,any radio communication or signal.CM-M1300_01_07final 3/2/98, 11:40 AM3

4The Institute of Electrical andElectronics Engineers (IEEE) in 1991,and The American National StandardsInstitute (ANSI) in 1992, updated the1982 ANSI Standard for safety levelswith respect to human exposure to RFenergy. Over 120 scientists, engineers,and physicians from universities,government health agencies, andindustry, reviewed the availableresearch and developed this updatedStandard. In March 1993, the U.S.Federal Communications Commission(FCC) proposed the adoption of thisupdated Standard.The design of your phone complies withthis updated Standard. Of course, if youwant to limit RF exposure even furtherthan the updated ANSI Standard, youmay choose to control the duration ofyour calls and operate your phone inthe most power efficient manner.Efficient phone operationFor your phone to operate at the lowestpower level consistent with satisfactorycall quality, please observe thefollowing guidelines:Your phone has an extendable antenna;extend it fully whenever possible formaximum efficiency.Hold the phone as you would any othertelephone. While speaking directly intothe mouthpiece, position the antenna upand over your shoulder.Do not hold the antenna when thephone is in use. Holding the antennaaffects call quality and may cause thephone to operate at a higher power levelthan needed.Safety precautionsIMPORTANTFor safe and efficient operation ofyour phone, observe these guidelines.Your dual mode (analog/digitalCDMA) hand-held portable cellulartelephone uses both analog frequencymodulation (FM) technology and digitalCode Division Multiple Access (CDMA)technology. CDMA is a newer radiofrequency (RF) technology than the FMtechnology that has been used for radiocommunications for decades.Your dual mode portable cellulartelephone is a radio transmitter andreceiver. When the phone is ON, itreceives and sends out radio frequency(RF) energy. The phone operates in thefrequency range of 824 MHz to 894MHz. When you use your phone, thecellular system handling your callcontrols the mode of operation (analogor digital CDMA) and the power levelat which your phone transmits. In theanalog mode, the power is continuouslytransmitted at a level that can rangefrom about 6 mW to about 600 mW. Inthe digital CDMA mode, the power istransmitted as a digitally codedwaveform at a rate varying from 100 Hzto 800 Hz. The average power can rangefrom about 0.01 µW to about 300 mW.Exposure to radio frequencyenergyResearch on health effects from RFenergy has focused for many years onFM radio technology. That research andstudies regarding newer radiotechnologies, such as CDMA, havefound no credible scientific evidencethat adverse health effects result fromthe use of cellular telephones.CM-M1300_01_07final 3/2/98, 11:40 AM4

5Antenna care and replacementDo not use the phone with a damagedantenna. If a damaged antenna comesinto contact with the skin, a minor burnmay result. Replace a damaged antennaimmediately. Take your phone to anauthorized service center for repair.Use only the supplied or approvedantenna. Unauthorized antennas,modifications, or attachments couldimpair call quality, damage the phone,and violate FCC regulations.DrivingCheck the laws and regulations on the useof cellular telephones in the areas whereyou drive. Always obey them. Also, whenusing your phone while driving, please:• pay full attention to driving;• use hands-free operation, if available;• pull off the road and park beforemaking or answering a call, if drivingconditions so require.Electronic devicesMost modern electronic equipment isshielded from RF energy. However, RFenergy from cellular telephones mayaffect some electronic equipment.RF energy may affect improperlyinstalled or inadequately shieldedelectronic operating and entertainmentsystems in motor vehicles. Check withthe manufacturer or its representative todetermine if these systems areadequately shielded from external RFenergy. You should also check with themanufacturer of any equipment that hasbeen added to your vehicle.Medical devicesConsult the manufacturer of anypersonal medical devices (such aspacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) todetermine if they are adequatelyshielded from external RF energy. Yourphysician may be able to assist you inobtaining this information.Turn your phone OFF in health carefacilities when regulations posted in theareas instruct you to do so. Hospitals orhealth care facilities may be usingequipment that could be sensitive toexternal RF energy.AircraftTurn your phone OFF before boardingany aircraft.• Use it on the ground only with crewpermission.• Do not use in the air.To prevent possible interference withaircraft systems, U.S. Federal AviationAdministration (FAA) regulationsrequire you to have permission from acrew member to use your phone whilethe plane is on the ground. To preventinterference with aircraft communicationsystems, FCC regulations prohibit usingyour phone while the plane is in the air.ChildrenDo not allow children to play with yourphone. It is not a toy. Children couldhurt themselves or others (by pokingthemselves or others in the eye with theantenna, for example). Children alsocould damage the phone or make callsthat increase your telephone bills.Blasting areasTo avoid interfering with blastingoperations, turn your unit OFF when ina “blasting area” or in areas posted:“Turn off two-way radio.” Constructioncrews often use remote control RFdevices to set off explosives.CM-M1300_01_07final 3/2/98, 11:40 AM5

6Potentially explosive atmospheresTurn your phone OFF when in any areawith a potentially explosiveatmosphere. It is rare, but your phone orits accessories could generate sparks.Sparks in such areas could cause anexplosion or fire resulting in bodilyinjury or even death.Areas with a potentially explosiveatmosphere are often, but not always,clearly marked. They include fuelingareas such as gas stations; below deck onboats; fuel or chemical transfer orstorage facilities; areas where the aircontains chemicals or particles, such asgrain, dust, or metal powders; and anyother area where you would normally beadvised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.Do not transport or store flammable gas,liquid, or explosives in the compartmentof your vehicle which contains yourphone or accessories.In the United States, vehicles usingliquefied petroleum gas (such aspropane or butane) must comply withthe National Fire Protection Standard(NFPA-58). For a copy of this standard,contact the National Fire ProtectionAssociation, One Batterymarch Park,Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: PublicationSales Division.In Canada, vehicles using liquefiedpetroleum gas (such as propane orbutane) must comply with the CanadianGas Association (CAN/CGS-B149.2).For a copy of this standard, contact theCanadian Standards Association, 178Rexdale Blvd., Etobicoke, ON M9W 1R3,Attn: Standard Sales Department.CM-M1300_01_07final 3/2/98, 11:40 AM6
