FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION:
WARNING!! Read this information before using your phone
In August 1986 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its
action in Report and Outer FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to
radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of
FCC regulations. 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.
BODY-WORN OPERATION:
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back/front of the phone kept
0.5cm from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation
distance of 0.5cm must be maintained between the user's body and the back/front of the
phone, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories containing
metallic components shall not be used. Body-worn accessories
that cannot maintain 0.5cm separation distance between the user’s body and the
back/front 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) / <ICNIRP> (1999)
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).
