Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

Your VisorPhone Radio Product is designed to comply with the following national and international stan-

dards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:

United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations;

47 CFR part 2 sub-part J

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86

To comply with the above FCC Regulations governing human exposure to radio frequency energy, users
MUST adhere to the following procedure:

To comply with FCC RF exposure guidelines during body-worn operation, use the Handspring Belt

Clip or the Handspring Holster. Use of other body worn accessories that have not been tested with the
VisorPhone for RF exposure compliance may not comply.

To assure optimal radio performance, always adhere to the following procedures:

When placing or receiving a phone call hold the radio as you would a telephone.

Speak directly into the microphone and position the antenna up over your shoulder.

DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna affects call quality and

may cause the radio to operate at a higher power level than needed.

Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic Devices

Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain equipment may not be shielded

against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
