Safety Information

Safety Information

• ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
• NCRP Report 86 (1986) *
• ICNIRP (1996) *
• Health Canada, Safety Code 6. 1999

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 (C951).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those
standards).

ANTENNA CARE

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

DRIVING SAFETY

Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is
illegal in some states. Remember, safety comes first. Check the laws
and regulations on the use of phones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving. Driving safely is your first

responsibility.

• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if

driving conditions so require.

If you must use the phone while driving, please use one-touch,
speed dialing, and auto answer modes.

An airbag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including
both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the
airbag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.

Warning: Failure to follow these instructions may lead to serious
personal injury and possible property damage.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends
that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained
between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to
avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your

pacemaker when the phone is turned on.

• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the

potential for interference.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is

taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
