Introduction
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals— Your
wireless hand-held 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
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: ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP Report 89 (1986)*,
ICNIRP (1996)*
Those standards were based on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations for 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
NavTalk Pilot phone complies with FCC guidelines and
those standards.
FCC Compliance Statement— The NavTalk Pilot
GPS Receiver/Cellular Phone meets compliance require-
ments for maximum Specific Absorption Rate of radio
wave emissions for the limit given in the FCC 96-326
Guideline. Tested by APREL Laboratories, an agent of the
Telecommunications Board of the Spectrum Scientific
Institute, Nepean, Ontario, Canada.
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.
Phone Operation— Hold the phone as you would
any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and
over your shoulder.
