NavTlkOM.qxd 2/1/00 2:45 PM Page 2 INTRODUCTION Cautions and Warnings 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.
