SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS HANDHELD

PHONES

Read This Information Before Using Your Wireless

Handheld Phone

EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS

Your handheld wireless phone is a low power radio

transmitter and receiver. When powered ON, it

receives as well as 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 the safety

standards previously set by both U.S. and international

standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP REPORT 86 (1986) *
ICNIRP (1996) *

These standards were based on comprehensive and

periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific litera-

ture. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and

physicians from universities, government health agen-

cies, and industry reviewed the available body of

research to develop the ANSI Standard (C951).

The design of your wireless phone complies with the

FCC guidelines and the abovementioned standards.
