SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS HANDHELD
PHONES
READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR HANDHELD
PORTABLE CELLULAR TELEPHONE
EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS
Your wireless handheld 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 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 standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986) *
ICNIRP (1996) *
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the rele-
vant 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 SAFETY
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result
in violation of FCC regulations. Please contact your local dealer for replacement
antenna.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for
replacement antenna.

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.
