Radio Frequency (RF) Energy

Understanding How Your Device Operates

Your device is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives and transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals. When you use your device, the system handling your call controls the power level.
This power can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.

Knowing Radio Frequency Safety

The design of your device complies with updated NCRP standards described below.

In 1991–92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human
exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government
health agencies and industries developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of
research. In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard in a
regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE
standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements
(NCRP).
