BODY-WORN OPERATION:
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the
back of the phone kept 1.5cm from the body. To comply with FCC
RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of
1.5cm must be maintained between the user's body and the back of
the phone, including the antenna, whether extended or retracted.
Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories containing
metallic components shall not be used. Body-worn accessories
that cannot maintain 1.5cm separation distance between the users
body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for
typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF
exposure limits and should be avoided.

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 hand-held wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by
both U.S. and international standards bodies:
<ANSIC95.1> (1992) / <NCRP Report 86> (1986) / <ICIMIRP>
(1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant 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 (C95.1).
Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a hands-free kit with
your phone (such as an earpiece or headset) to avoid potential
exposure to RF energy. The design of your phone complies with
the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
