constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is used (car kit,
headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from using their cellphone
when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on
the use of wireless cellphones and their accessories in the areas
where you drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices may be
prohibited or restricted in certain areas.
When driving, do not use your cellphone and headphone to listen
to music or to the radio. Using a headphone can be dangerous and
forbidden in some areas.
When switched on, your cellphone emits electromagnetic waves that
can interfere with the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS antilock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- do not place your cellphone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag
deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure
that the car’s electronic devices are shielded from cellphone RF
energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the cellphone from time to time to
optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of cellphone use on
aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs when using mobile
devices in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems: Turn off your
mobile device in any location where posted notices instruct you to
do so. In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever instructed
to do so by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode
or similar feature, consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Switch the cellphone off when you are in health care facilities, except in
designated areas. As with many other types of equipment now in regular
use, cellphones can interfere with other electrical or electronic devices,
or equipment using radio frequency.

• RADIO WAVES:
THIS CELLPHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS
FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your cellphone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio-frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the
general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines include
a substantial safety margin designed to ensure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for cellphones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by
public authorities such as the Federal Communications Commission
of the US Government (FCC), or by Industry Canada, is 1.6 W/kg
averaged over 1 gram of body tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating positions with the cellphone transmitting at
its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level,
the actual SAR level of the cellphone while operating can be well
below the maximum value. This is because the cellphone is designed
to operate at multiple 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
cellphone. Before a cellphone model is available for sale to the public,
compliance with national regulations and standards must be shown.
The highest SAR value for this model cellphone when tested
is 0.903 W/Kg (one touch 990A), 1.29 W/Kg (one touch
990S) for use at the ear and 1.31 W/Kg (one touch 990A),
1.39 W/Kg (one touch 990S) for use close to the body.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various
cellphones and at various positions, they all meet the government
requirement for RF exposure. For body-worn operation, the
cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used
with a non-metallic accessory with the handset at least 10 mm from
the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with
FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Additional information on SAR can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) Web site: http://
www.phonefacts.net
32
IP3514_990A_990S_QG_Eng_USA_07_110527.indd 32-33
The World Health Organization (WHO) considers that present
scientific information does not indicate the need for any special
precautions for use of cellphones. If individuals are concerned, they
might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure
by limiting the length of calls, or using “hands-free” devices to
keep cellphones away from the head and body. (fact sheet n°193).
Additional WHO information about electromagnetic fields and
public health are available on the following website: http://www.
who.int/peh-emf.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more
of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for
help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
For the receiver devices associated with the operation of a licensed
radio service (e.g. FM broadcast), they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful
interference.
For other devices, they bear the following statement:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
Your cellphone is equipped with a built-in antenna. For optimal
operation, you should avoid touching it or degrading it.
