Safety Information
Important:
Read this information before using your
wireless handheld phone.
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 Communications Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent
with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
C95.1 1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) Report 86 1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (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 available body of research to develop the ANSI
Standard (C95.1).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines
(and those standards).
