Guideline
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 hand-held wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set
by both U.S. and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992)
*1
NCRP Report 86 (1986) *2
ICNIRP (1996) *3
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).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and
those standards).
z To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guideline, if you
wear a handset on your body use the Sharp supplied or approved
holster. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna
is at least one inch (2.54 centimeters ) from your body when
transmitting. Use of non-Sharp accessories may violate FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
