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.
International agencies have set standards and recommendations
for the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic
energy.
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Radio
Frequency Exposure Guidelines (1996)
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United
Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE.
C95. 1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP). Report 86
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI
standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when
used normally.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorised antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate local agency regulations.
Phone Operation
Normal Operation
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the
antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most
efficiently.
• Extend your antenna fully, if applicable.
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily 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.
IMPORTANT:
Read this information before using
your wireless handheld phone.
