Exposure to
radiofrequency signals
Your wireless handheld portable
telephone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is
ON, it receives and also sends out
radiofrequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, The Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for hand-held
wireless phones. Those guidelines
are consistent with the safety
standards previously set by both
U.S. and international standards
bodies:
American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C95.1 (1992)
National Council of Radiation
Protection and Measurement
(NCRP) Report 86 (1986)
International Commission of Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996
Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety
Code 6
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). For additional
information concerning exposure to
radio frequency signal, see the
statement by the FDA at the end of
this user guide.
