For Your Safety
TIA Safety
Information
The following is the
complete TIA Safety
Information for wireless
handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio
Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld
portable phone is a low
power radio transmitter
and receiver. When ON,
it receives and 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
20 GS170 | User Guide
standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86
(1986)
ICNIRP (1996)
* American National
Standards Institute;
National Council on
Radiation Protection
and Measurements;
International Commis-
sion on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection
Those standards were
based on comprehensive
and periodic evaluations
of the relevant scientifi c
literature. For example,
over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physi-
cians from universities,
government health
agencies, and industry
reviewed the available
body of research to
develop the ANSI
Standard (C95.1).
